Canelo Alvarez Losing to Dmitry Bivol

[@Barti-SK]

Bivol has over 200 amateur fights. He's a boxing machine with amazing technique and fantastic combos.

[@Barti-SK]

And I dont want to hear about Canelo's diet. He came into the fight underestimating Bivol... In interviews before the fight he was already talking about other opponents. Canelo is an all time great fighter, but he came into this fight vs Bivol underprepared and got thumped. Hope he bounces back from this, im sure he will.

he never underestimated him, he chose to fight him solely for the reason because they believe that bivol is the 175er.

Guys that are not flashy with solid fundamentals. And they're fighting a bigger guy, arguably a better technician too, and they said they should have won? Jeez. Btw, thanks Eddie Hearn for making this fight. We will never see how good Bivol is if Canelo is still under Oscar.

[@imhungry1257]

Canelo in his last few fights has stopped using his elite head movement and speed and started just walking down opponents with his guard up and hoping to break them down eventually. But that strategy showed its limitations against opponents that are too big and also happen to be elite boxers technically.

[@MrGhosTRideRrR]

You sure it wasn't the extra weight he put on? It is not easy jumping 4 divisions from where you normally fight, and still having that top notch head movement, you gotta distribute your energy and can't waste it on head movement would be my guess..

[@GenFightClub]

Nah bivol just figured him out Canelo tried the fancy head movement but bivol kept catching him clean

[@GVA787]

@@MrGhosTRideRrR This is not the first time he fights at 175. He fought Kovalev at that class and won. No problems then…

[@diegofonseca6708]

Canelo doesn’t use his tactics and style to “hope” to break opponents down. He knows it will break them down that’s supreme confidence in his ability. Unfortunately he overestimated his power and abilities while going up to light heavyweight against a natural light heavyweight that happens to be an elite boxer.

[@albert_jo]

Canelo tried to be slick but Bivol caught onto his game. Canelo struggles against boxers with elite jabs (look at GGG 1)

[@larrycera1943]

And the difference in natural size and power was obvious. He had to expend minimal effort to cause the same effect of punishment in his punches compared to what Canelo was forced to do. When his exceptional hand speed for his size is matched with that power it results in the dominance we saw in that fight. I doubt Canelo will seek out that rematch. I can’t imagine it going drastically different next time.

Completely agree. Boxing is consistent pressure, footwork, accuracy, leading with the jab, hands up constantly - and do that for 12 rounds - and be excellent the whole time. Being a winner in boxing is being excellent at the basics ALL THE TiME. I thought canelo was drawing him in so he’d open up like he did will Billy J but Bivol is a different level.

My only issue with people is the excuses for Canelo post fight. His game plan weight diet juice ECT didn't diminish his boxing abilities that are second nature for him at this juncture of his long & illustrious career. The better boxer won from round one through twelve. He tried from the outside to the center of the ring to land scoring blows & counter punches all night. He was outboxed in every facet of the game imaginable. Footwork combinations accuracy jabbing distance management level changes feinting movement ring IQ speed changes counter punching TIMING even the exchanges while inside fighting Canelo was clearly frustrated all night. Defensively he was outclassed as well Bivol's guard is beautiful and his consistency is impeccable I'm shocked that most people thought Canelo would actually stop him no one gave him a chance. Canelo is an incredible boxer but let's be honest I've not seen Canelo get outclassed that badly since Erislandy Lara was robbed. Weight is not in any way a valid excuse especially given the fact that Bivol can easily make 168 & is currently trying to go down to take his belts. He's a small man for his weight class. Canelo was simply outsmarted & outboxed. I couldn't even give him two rounds (rewatched the fight twice now) which is astonishing. The judges were looking to rob Bivol from the outset perusal but they couldn't. If they rematch you'll see the same thing except I assume Canelo will approach the fight with more offensive aggression & get eventually get stopped at any weight they decide to fight at.

Yes, he did believed too much in his power. But it's not like he doesn't try his best. This is the usual Canelo we had seen, it just that Bivol doesn't bite. Tried to destroy Bivol arms, doesn't work. Tried to trap him with his usual. Peekabo stance, Bivol jab and push him away. Tried to invite Bivol to play at the rope, Bivol doesn't play as much as Canelo wants too. Tried to go inside. Get countered clean everytime he finished combo. Canelo did believed his power too much. But he did brings a lot of his arsenal into the fight. Bivol just better that day

He just went in with the wrong game plan that’s it

[@rocktekhne]

Rewatch the fight examine the details. His game plan didn't diminish his boxing abilities that are second nature at this juncture of his long illustrious career. He tried from the outside to the center of the ring to land scoring blows & counter all night. He was outboxed in every facet of the game imaginable. Footwork combinations accuracy jabbing distance management level changes feinting movement speed changes counter punching TIMING even the exchanges while inside fighting Canelo was frustrated all night. Defensively he was outclassed as well especially Bivol's beautiful guard and consistency is impeccable I'm shocked most people thought Canelo would actually stop him. I've not seen Canelo get outclassed that badly since Erislandy Lara was robbed. Weight is not in any way a valid excuse especially given the fact that Bivol can easily make 168 & is currently trying to go down. He's a small man for his weight class. Canelo was simply outsmarted & outboxed I don't think I gave him two rounds (rewatched the fight twice now) which is just astonishing. The judges were looking to rob Bivol from the outset but they couldn't.

Special horse meat, as someone say.

[@YA-wr5wd]

Canelo's loss had nothing to do with diet and everything to do with style, gameplan, and the limitations of his own body. It's been covered up a bit by how average his competition has been at 168, but Canelo's gas tank and footwork have been really weighed down by fighting at higher weight classes. He just can't keep his style up for 12 straight rounds, and when you are fighting a guy like Bivol, someone who actually has decent power and a well rounded skillset, Canelo just doesn't have the ability to deal with them like he would at 160. He gasses too hard and since his power is less based on natural ability and more based on his skills, timing and leverage, he really has to bank on lining up a perfect punch or catching someone on a counter. That's much easier to do with guys like BJS and Plant, who don't have near the offensive skillset that Bivol does

Canelo didn’t lose cus he didn’t have steak. Bivol is more skilled and technical, better cardio too.

[@commonsense7057]

I weigh 183lbs and I have weigh 168lbs with the same levels of body fat and exercise routine. I am faster and much stronger at 183lbs at 6'. There is a point of diminishing returns where too much weight starts to slow you and take the snap off your punches. For a guy Bivols size I would expect a lot of speed at power if he weighed 180-185 lbs on fight night. Canelo is hitting the upper level of what his frame can hold and still retain his speed and cardio,

[@mrillis9259]

lol it is true that he fought mayweather At 154 lbs but what Rogan didn't mention is Canelo rehydrated to 175 lbs for that fight lmao which is Bivols weight. I've seen Canelo in real life. He walk around at at least 200lbs. Lets not forget that he was just about to fight someone at cruiserweight which is a weight class above light heavyweight. Canelo has been bigger than everybody he's fought accept maybe kovalev and julio ceaser chavez jr.

[@CasualGamer121]

Bullshit. Canelo is not walking around at 200 lbs.

[@solomonbaz9456]

​@@CasualGamer121 If you haven't seen him in person then shut up. Casual boxing fans wouldn't know that. I seen him at the event where they had anderson silva and julio ceasar chavez Sr. Canelo is not dedicated enought to train and stay one weight he walks around at about 200lbs. How you think hes able to fight a cruiserweight? Thats why he can reach 154 for a fight then cheat and rehydrate all the way to 175 lbs to fight 154 lbs mayweather. There a reason boxing doesnt show there night of fight weight anymore lol Do you not see this man neck. Im 160 myself hes alot bigger than i am. If he can rehydrate from 154 to 175 lbs hes atleast 180. Cotto and khan are both on record saying he was between 180- 188 when he fought them

[@solomonbaz9456]

@@CasualGamer121 The reason its hard to tell is because canelo is short. canelo out weighed almost everybody he's fought. He get to the weight then rehydrates 15 to 20lbs over. I dont jus say shty to say shyt when i seen him personally he was 200lbs. He didn't have a fight but people are delusional. THEY Actually think he walks around at 175 when he has to train to lose alot of weight and then rehydrate. Regardless of what you believe the fact still remains that it seems like its ok for him to fight 154lb mayweather and come in at 175lb and still fight for a 154 belt. But then im hearing clowns cry and say bivol who walks around at 175 - 180 is to big for canelo who literally walks around weighing more than bivol . When again did canelo fight mayweather? Point being Canelo was 175lbs years ago and he usually fight either at 175lbs or more lol The commentators even stated bivol looked small and canelo looked big at the beginning of the fight lol Canelo jus looks shorter.

Prime canelo lost? I thought he said nobody can beat him in his prime? And everybody makes an excuse that 175 is too much for him? It's not his first fight at 175 it's just he lost and got outboxed by a superior fighter not a weight issue but styles makes fights.

[@joeramir421]

[@davidcadena8114]

Canelo started fighting at welterweight in Mexico. Won titles as a welterweight in Mexico, titles at Superwelter, Middleweight, Supermiddle weight and Lt.heavyweight. Prior to Canelo, Kovalev only lost to Andre Ward, one by decision, the 2nd by KO. This coming from a fighter who is only 5'8" tall.

[@gareth5853]

I love Rogan but he is so off with Boxing in regards to providing correct information, Canelo was on a transition from Welterweight 147lb to 154lb and it was his team that agreed the weight to push for the fight against Mayweather!

[@Ahmz1]

It’s crazy the disrespect Bivol was getting especially from people in boxing nobody gave him a chance! I just feel like when it comes to Canelo everyone expects him to win that’s why most boxers were just saying Canelo will beat Bivol but yet these people are giving him props now seriously? If you watch enough boxing then Bivol winning is not a surprise I said if Canelo wins I’d be surprised and even more surprised if he could outbox Bivol. Would like to see Bivol against the winner of Beterbiev-Joe smith

[@luminance1350]

Bivol was just too big.

[@johtapia1]

Misleading title

[@corycherrier4743]

It looked like Canelo was hitting a god damn brick wall all night, he’s just to small for 175lbs IMO! Even some of the big uppercuts he landed didn’t move Bivols head up or back much at all, looked like guys got an iron neck and walked right through everything Canelo threw. Also Bivol fought the absolute perfect fight man, he stuck to his game plan and was in control completely. Weirdly it wasn’t anything super technical either, it was a master class in basic fundamental boxing! High tight guard, control the distance continuously with the jab, while also using it to set up the hard 1-2 down the middle, then when available he was throwing basic 1-2-3/2-3 combinations with great timing, he even had some really nice inside counter punching on occasion. I personally had it 8 rounds to 4 for Bivol and that was being generous with one of the earlier rounds for Canelo, could have probably gone either way…

[@IronHadouken]

@@TheGayJesus not much weight between the fighters on fight night. Bivol comes in at 185lbs and canelo is somewhere near there when he hydrates from 168 usually. Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s only a few lbs heavier when he fights at 175 compared to 168. Difference is bivol fights dudes that hydrate back up to near 200lbs and trades with them no problem. Canelos shots didn’t bother him at all lol.

Honestly speaking, that vegan meat wasn't the issue. Canelo got outboxed and outclassed. And he was loading up 2 out of his 3 punches and he hit air most of the times. Take all the animal meat you want, you ain't learning skills. Canelo is a world champ, he won the 175 belt anyway, better to take the GGG fight next after the second loss to Bivol is september.
