Beterbiev is a better fighter than Bivol it may look like a cherry-pick fight in terms of experience and style Canelo is miles ahead against Bivol he has a good record but he is flatfooted something Canelo wants, he doesn't like fighters who dance away and refuse to engage because he'll have a hard time catching them like what Floyd did to him, it will be a knock out win for Canelo.
Bivol is not a good technical fighter and this will get him in trouble, Canelo is so good at frustrating his opponents if you are a good jabber Canelo will beat you at your game, Bivol will have a hard time because he has not faced somebody like Canelo who is very good at defending himself and while defending he also attack, I don't believe that Bivol will have a chance against Canelo, so far the vote is 6-0 in favor of Canelo.
He's fast and with power punch but I'm not impressed I checked highlights of his fights on Youtube heavier version of Plant and we have seen how Canelo beat Plant methodically that's likely going to happen here against Bivol because from what I saw he is not good defensively, to beat Canelo you have to be good defensively like Mayweather.
Canelo will surely find a way to beat Bivol, he already fought a lot of champions and he always wins, except on Mayweather's fight. Canelo being a slow starter is his best strategy to study how to beat his opponent, so whoever will be his opponent at the current stage, I think Canelo is still hard to beat.I'm not familiar with Dmitry Bivol, I will also check some of his fight highlights and see if he can stand until 12 rounds against Canelo.

I'm expected Canelo to beat Bivol and eventually face Golovkin.

I'm interested in the 2nd part, a GGG vs Canelo Trilogy if he wins this fight.
Well, in terms of chances, I guess GGG and Canelo has a high chance of beating their respective opponent, so the fight that is almost impossible is going to happen soon, hopefully this year.

Bivol is a good puncher, he mostly dominating the fight since he style is offensive. Though he doesn't have good head movement and footwork, but he can still remain undefeated. I also don't see his opponent landed big punch on Bivol, so I don't know how tough his chin is. While Canelo have good head movement, footwork and tough chin, but he lack of experiences in this weight. Canelo need to train his body to endure from big punch by Bivol and play more aggresive
Seems this is another fight where the challenger will be favorited

I do agree with your analysis, if Bivol doesn't have a head movement and just rely on his power, sooner or later he will have to deal with Canelo's left hook and uppercut and his chin are going to be tested. And Alvarez is going to take advantage of that no head movement, he can land it at will and maybe this will not last 12 rounds.

We will see Alvarez getting tested against one of the best in the Light-Heavyweight. But for sure everyone is excited for a trilogy with GGG that will happen in September.
And what a record deal for Canelo I think it's the biggest contract we have in boxing.
As for the fight with Bivol, I think Canelo will still be the winning here, it could extend though to 12 rounds.

It's official, one the most anticipated match this year has been confirmed. Canelo Alvarez will fight Dmitry Bivol on May 7. And not only that, if by chance he won against Bivol, Canelo will be facing GGG next (assuming GGG wins his fight with Murata).

BoxingScene.com has confirmed that the Mexican superstar has agreed to a lucrative two-fight deal with the streaming service that once signed him to a 10-fight contract that could’ve been worth $365 million. The undisputed super middleweight champion will box unbeaten WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol on May 7 and then, if the favored fighter beats Bivol, he will finally face rival Gennadiy Golovkin a third time September 17.
