I hope Bivol comes out victorious.
Bivol is facing Canelo and the 3 judges.
and a pro mexican corrupt referee in russell mora.
Already making excuses.
It looks like the majority on here agree with me kid. I don’t have to make excuses, you people have to. You’re the ones who are cheating your way through life. So when you finally take on a tough assignment, you won’t be able to stay afloat. You can’t cheat natural selection son
Thats old news man, cmon.. dont start making excuses
Ande the crowd too.
And mooooooo.
Canelo looks emaciated. Bivol looks to be the bigger stronger fighter. My take? A more skilled boxer, equally hard a puncher, as strong a chin, and as tough and game as a young GGG. A bigger version of it.
Normally Canelo fans here are out in droves. The silence is deafening. I guess maybe they arent going to watch. After all Bivol is just going to laay down and die.
Joe blow. U must be a GGG fan huh.. still hurt cuz ur boy started spinning wheels but never got anywhere after the 2nd Canelo fight?
Your boy made sure he ate them Mexican beef to get that extra juice in his system. I hope Bivol humiliates this cheater.
he will. Bivol in 9. Movie stars quit . He thinks he is Carlos Monzon.
Movie stars quit??? I am no Canelo fan, but nothing in his entire career has given me the idea that he may possibly quit in a fight.
More concerned about judges like Byrds 118-110. Whose head was obviously up the a**. Its a 50/50 fight. A few hard right hands can turn the whole thing around. Judging needs an overhaul. Cinco Damyo. Thousands of hispanic fans. Of course judging is going to be a factor.
Yes, all that plus Mafia Vegas is the crookedest city on earth. Actually I’d have more confidence in the fairness if it was held in Mexico. Still I like them both. This should be a good one. Like others said, may the best man win. It is so refreshing to see a fight with none of the trash and trash talk. Both are good sportsmen. Of course I am rooting for the Russian. Go Russia and FJB!
Joe, are you saying that Bivol is going to Kovalev himself around the 8th round?
DAZN is overestimating their pricing power. Not only is this a PPV but they increased the annual subscription this week by $50. No thanks DAZN. I’ll just read about it Sunday morning.
Wait a few minutes, highlights will be on you tube.
Shaping up to be good fight! LLLLLet’s get ready to rrrrrrrrrrumble!
Time for the mixed Rum drinks.
Absolutely scoobs! I still feel Bivol has the edge, but its gonna be a damn good fight. Can go either way
Very good undercard as well. Montana Love is a very good fighter (and very peculiar, coming up to the ring with his dog) and he will have a good test with Gollaz Valenzuela. But of course I will not miss the Bivol vs Canelo, not so favorite Canelo as the bets tell IMO
Yeah, Montana Love is the only fighter I’ve ever seen enter the ring with a dog.
Montana Loves cannot have his dog with him in the ring when the fight starts. He is going to have to do this on his own although I feel his opponent is susceptible to a few nips on the ankle!!!!
Don’t forget the big Chinese fighter, Zhang. Hopefully he’s in much better shape now than he used to be, and he should win easily tomorrow, and then a bigger fight next, maybe Hrgovic who was his originally scheduled oponent tomorrow, tho i don’t think Zhang has much chance against Hrg.
We got ourselves a fight, fam! I’m on the fence about paying for this fight. I like the height and size advantage for Bivol and clearly he has no fear of Canelo as you see in the stare down. However, canelo is canelo. It should be a great fight! Bivol will be able to take canelo’s shots. I want to see how canelo takes Bivols shots and skill.
Bivol is dangerous and fighting with relatively nothing to lose mentality besides belt…….makes him Very dangerous…
Exactly bro. Everyone is discrediting Bivol, but dude is a beast. He is definitely one dangerous opponent FOR ANYONE
hope its a good fight.
odds makers think its an easy one sided win for canelo. they are usually right. usually
Bivol is the best fighter Canelo has faced since his only defeat. I don’t think he will be able to dominate Bivol like he did to Plant or Smith, rather I see Bivol tagging him, making Canelo pay with any mistake the first half of the fight, Canelo will make the fight more intense with every round and at the end we might have a controversial decision, in either way, if Canelo is the loser, a rematch will be demanded, but if is Bivol, no way Canelo fight him again, like happened to Lara.
correct. I say Bivol stops him.
Bivol is going to shock a lot of people when he wins this fight. This is a bad fight for Canelo, but good for him for rising to the challenge.
totally agree. It is going to be easy work. Canola cannot really box and not really punch. He flattens 147 pound guys or shot fighters. After he loses this fight, he will be creamed by Benevedes, then gasp Charlo. Then retire to Mexican beef.
Canelo fights not to lose. He knows how to get real leverage on his punches and he’s smart. Only two men knew how to neutralize him and beat him. One was Floyd Mayweather and the other was GGG. IMO, GGG won their first fight but it was declared a draw. The second fight went to Canelo when it was closer to being a draw. Canelo gets favorable treatment against carefully matched opponents.
Bivol will taste Canelo’s power early then be on the defensive while throwing an occasional flurry which will have no effect on Canelo. Canelo will be walking his man down, picking his shots, gauging his timing. Sometime around the middle to late rounds, BOOM. Bivol will be hurt by a vicious Canelo shot. Fight over early.
Bivol cannot win a decision against Canelo and he doesn’t have the power to knock out Canelo, especially being on the defensive trying to avoid Canelo’s one-shot KO power. This fight will show how strong his chin is.
I’m really looking forward to this. Surprisingly none of the local sports bars are carrying it but a nice and rather expensive Mexican restaurant is at no charge. Guess i’m drinking that nice dark Negromodello beer.

ask Joe Smith if he can punch. 175 is not 147. Bivol in 9.
Did you come up with that all by yourself? Here’s the scenario, you just watched Canelo versus Plant and inserted Bivol into the body of Plant and then made this post. Contemporary America has been tailored to suit people like you, who would otherwise never be able to make it in a truly free market natural selection society.
So funny. Callem Smith? Or the last nobody he fought. Caleb Plant. Dear Gawd can nobody see the pedegree difference from Bovol? Bill Joe Saunders? Bivol is a real fighter. He is seriously going to expose Canola as a movie star who is so far from what Bivol is, it is going to shock the boxing world. Those three guy won alot of rounds against him . He was Losing the Kovalov and Khan fights till he clipped both of those already seriously shot fighters. Billy Joe ? Smith? Holy crap. Anyone who thinks Bivol in 10 is drunk. I predict Bivol may stop him. He is fighting 30 pounds north of 147. Pacquiao he aint. I said Bivol EASY over and over. I say now Bivol in 9. Swollen and broken, Canola will not come out for the 10th. Nuff said.
we shall see, get that crow plate ready.
Bivol is probably the best Korean fighter (ok, he’s half-Russian) I’ve ever seen! Canelo will have his hands full.
Poor Bivol who isn’t a knockout puncher ! How is he gonna win against Canelo then !
Hope Bivol takes this but thinks Canelo wins. I think Bivol turns out to be the weaker one and can no longer withstand Canelo’s attacks.
The big question is when. Early? Middle-rounds? Championship rounds?
Should Bivol have any chance, it is in the middle of the ring. And it is not impossible that Bivol can initially take home a few rounds with fast feet, sideways, and straight blows, but it will not disturb Canelo too much.
Bivol is the one who will get tired during those rounds. Canelo will patiently study his opponent before attacking with a fully charged battery.
Bivol is fairly easy to predict. Should Bivol be better than I think and hope, Canelo will go straight through Bivol’s punches if he needs to.
I think the fight will be an anticlimax. A competetive disappointment.
Kudos for Alvarez for fighting this man. I just feel that he will have too much experience in especially big events. Bivol has not stopped anyone since 2018. If he had Berbetevs power, he would certainly have a far greater chance.
Bivol starts to slow. Canelo sweeps 5 out of six of the early rounds with a few mid rounds even. Canelo on a points win.
(Bivol vs. Alvarez) Bivol was just too big and more importantly had real skills plus difficult style for Canelo to win.
Boxing is event were promoters see the importants of a match that must take place for the general public, despite any World conflicts or Pro-Boxer National background to participate.
Eddie Hearns…provided big event and surprise winner. Thz Mate……
Boxing History from the 1917 was seen as good for the moral for United States Military and during those years more importantly for the the general public. Last night was no different for boxing History to continue its role of 100 years plus of providing big events during World conflicts from 1917-2022.
