Big jackpots await for those who will bet on Bivol he is a heavy underdog here, I watched the highlights of his knock out wins and he is really good but those he fought do not even offer resistance, they just stand there waiting for the big bomb to drop them, they are intimidated, in the case of Canelo nobody intimidated him even fighters who has outstanding records and has knockout powers, the name of the game is intimidation if Bivol can overcome it then we have a fight, and Bivol has a chance.
Mayweather is the one who can intimidated Canelo, he have good head and body movement to evade Canelo's punch. As I said before Bivol is only lack of defense and movements, but he do have good offense. Does Bivol want to prove
good offense is the best form of defense?
Bivol is higher compared to Canelo, Canelo would difficult to punch Bivol's face... it would be better if he give more body shots.
No, I don't think that good offense in the best form of defense in boxing, only a couple of fights that comes to my mind that uses his face as an offense to be able to attack, Margarito vs Cotto I.
But if Bivol will used his face and will not play defense with Canelo, it will be suicide and he himself will get knock out because Canelo's has power in both hands. Unless he has a granite chin that can hold, but I doubt it because this is a higher weight and boxers do really punch hard.
