Wouldn't it be suspend because of the Russia invasion? many sports league already removed Russia in their competition but the WBO does not yet? or they doesn't care about politics? In this match I think I would go in Alvarez, I see his previous matches and I think he can't easily beat by Bivol though Bivol doesn't have much professional boxing career his previous career in non professional boxing is great too. This is very exciting match.

I hope it will not be suspended, we have not seen Canelo having a fight this year yet unlike last year when he fight 3 times in a year IIRC. Sports should not be mixed with politics as its main purpose is just entertainment, so I hope we will see our expectations.

I don't think it will be suspended, Canelo is the face of boxing and if they did with his first fight for this year, this might send a bag signal for all Russian boxers, and it's not be good for the sports. Boxing fans wanted to see Canelo this year against a tough fighter in Bivol and hopefully this politics and sports should be separated.

Hopefully, as we don't know what is the effect of this ongoing war with sport industry. We can't conclude if they can proceed or if the governing concerns will not interrupt to this upcoming fight. We do want Canelo inside the ring and facing a much bigger Bivol we will
see how tough Canelo's preparation went thru.

Aiming for Canelo to win and see more upcoming fight being settled for him with more heavy and skilled fighters. Roll Eyes

Same here, even without the fact that we haven't seen Canelo fighting this year, I do hope that this fight will continue and not just this fight but for other Russian Athletes as well that have some games or fight scheduled even before the implementation was posted. These industries is for sports and entertainment, and not for politics. They should've let the elected country leaders deal with it.

Anyways, did you guys saw the viral news about Vladimir Putin's statement for FIFA? If not, here it is.

Quote

“FIFA must not enter into war politics, The National Football team of Russia will play FIFA World Cup in Qatar, or there won’t be WORLD CUP at all” -Putin

That statement is very positive, it's a go on his side but hopefully the same on the side of other countries or the organizers of the boxing event. When politics will come into the picture, everything will become biased and that will kill the excitement. Just let them fight, at least in times of war we can still entertain ourselves.

entertainment

That is the proper word to use. Punishing athletes just because they have specific passport or nationality is wrong. The world should stop that practice. This time someone is banned because his county has started a war, next time someone will be banned because he has a different point of view. If you ban everyone, there will be one left who will entertain you.

Canelo has already beated everyone in his division. If the world ban Russians, there will be less unbeaten opponent left. What should he do next then? Retire or fight with guys he had beaten for second or third time? Or wait for new generation of boxers to grow up? Or wait till Ryan Garcia will be ready for him? Grin

Exactly, though USA is against the Russia and they are giving them sanctions. We should be optimistic, this fight will happen and we will see an entertaining fight again. After this fight, Canelo is set to fight GGG as per report which also has a blood of a Russian.

Another Russian? I think he is just representing Russia (hope politics wont be involved in this fight), but originally he is from Kyrgyzstan. I am not sure if there is a huge difference in boxing schools, but his style will be more close to GGG. Some might think that thanks to reach advantage, Dmitry Bivol will have an advantage over Canelo. But I think we will see copy/paste of Kovalev vs Canelo fight. I would love to see Canelo vs Artur Beterbiev fight. I bet Artur can give Canelo lots of troubles, as his power is greater compared to Bivol. Beterbiev ended all of his fight by TKO or KO.

The only thing that makes this fight anticipated is that this involves Canelo Alvarez. Other than that, the anticipation is not this high. That Dmitry Bivol is Canelo's opponent does not make this fight anticipated. It does not make this fight exciting at all. The odds says it all. But I am still considering the possibility of an upset. Bivol has the youth in him and has the advantage in terms of stats. If he only keeps Canelo at a distance he will make it to a unanimous decision. But this is still an uphill battle for him.

Still very exciting as Bivol is undefeated, has a good knock out percentage. So there is slight chance of an upset if Bivol hit him square. We haven't seen Canelo being tested since the GGG fight, all his opponents in 168 just breaks down from Canelo's attack. I think Bivol will be a tough match for him at the Light Weight so this will be a good match up.

Since this is the first time that Canelo will fight after deciding to move up, we are all ended up speculating on who's the dominate one to each other. It's good that Bivol is the one that targeted by Canelo to test his skills.

This is not the first time Canelo is fighting in this weight class. Canelo has already defeated Kovalev in a light heavyweight title fight way back in 2019. It wasn't just a defeat, Canelo in fact knocked out Sergey. So this match against Bivol is the second match of Canelo at the 175 pounds limit. I think both Kovalev and Bivol are also 6 feet tall. It is interesting that Canelo is facing another Russian fighter in his light heavyweight return. We will see whether the younger Bivol will somehow avenge the loss of Kovalev.

Bivol should not be treated as heavy underdog on this fight even most are eyeing for Canelo to win.

On the possibility of fighting GGG, regardless of the result of this fight, Canelo might likely to push the fight against GGG.

Bivol is indeed dangerous opponent. Canelo experience is only his advantage since Bivol has a high IQ fighter like Mayweather which Canelo only lose on his career. But still this fight is much easier choice for him compared to other division champions which far more dangerous to him.

Mt bet will still goes to Canelo but I will toss some bucks to Bivol in case shit happened in the ring. Cheesy

They never show too much confidence in all the fights they are in, what we like about Canelo's camp is they are good in their assessment they never go to the fight without a strategy, Canelo always go to the fight fully aware of his opponent's strength and weaknesses and he beat them all on what they are good at I don't see Bivol having a good chance against Canelo, he's defense is not that good.

It won't take too long before he beats Bivol and surprises him with how strong he is inside the ring. Looks like he doesn't have any good defensive strategy to counter Canelo's punch unless he works hard to acquire new traits in boxing but that too is easy for Canelo because he can also adopt and counter his opponent and destroy their rythms to knock them out. This is not an easy fight for Bivol as he is a total underdog here, it would be crossing a giant wall which doesn't really budge at all.

the vote stands 29-2 ? damn that is frustrating in Bivol side if he finds out about the votes here Grin

anyway it is indeed Alvarez is the favorite here and seeing the standing? who would bet for Bivol to win here?

but of course boxing is always a Fight of chances , and also the other team is using the popularity of Alvarez to make his Name in the future.

I am for Canelo as well here.

but for canelo's camp, don't get too confident because in the recent boxing matches, we have seen upsets. i am confident with canelo's power here but you'll never know once inside the ring. he has to be prepared and his opponent knows his the underdog with about 3.75 odds on him, whereas, canelo is at 1.25, which clearly shows that bookies will favour canelo on this match.
for bivol, it will be a challenge for him, so he won't go inside the ring unprepared. but no matter what, both will have fat pockets afterwards.

Fighting Canelo is like winning the lottery, similar to what Pacquiao is before, that's why many fighters wanted to have the opportunity not only to fight but have a good pay check as well.

Everyone can intimidated his opponent, but if you don't have the tools then your opponent will just laugh at you. So you also have to back it up and I'm sure Bivol is not going to be intimidated here because he know that he has a puncher's chance.

Without a doubt Bivol has the opportunity of a lifetime, originally Canelo was supposed to move to the cruiserweight division, however there were a lot of issues about who was supposed to be his next opponent.

So it seems that at least for the time being Canelo is not going to move to the cruiserweight division and instead he will fight on the light heavyweight division, even if Bivol losses not only he will get a huge sum of money, sooner or later he will have another shot at winning another belt, and if he happens to win then the rematch would be epic, so no matter what happens Bivol will win a lot with this fight.

Exactly, no boxer would come unprepared especially if you are fighting one of the best in his generation, so Bivol's camp is surely studying the weakness of Canelo so Bivol will be effective inside the ring and will give him some trouble. The odds of Bivol is very attractive, but knowing how Canelo beat most of his opponents in a dominance passion, it's hard to bet against him.
