    The 2 biggest tests for Canelo just happen to be Russian. Respect to Alvarez for even to dare and move up in weight to take them on. I think both would beat Canelo and would be a bridge too far for him.

    Still cannot get over the fact that 1 judge had the first bout against Golovkin 118-110 to Canelo.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I'll see your judge... and raise you the judge that saw the Floyd-Canelo fight 114-114.

    Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez believes David Benavidez and Jermall Charlo should ‘fight each other’ as he insists ‘I’m busy this year’.

    Undisputed super-middleweight world champion Canelo Alvarez, 31, will move up to 178 pounds and challenge WBA light heavyweight titleholder Dmitry Bivol on May 7 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

    Naturally, this move has been met with criticism from some quarters, including Benavidez, 25, Charlo, 31, and Demetrius Andrade, 34.

    But boxing‘s pound-for-pound king claims he doesn’t care about what other people think because he is tired of them waiting around for a ‘payday’ against him.

    Canelo told DAZN: “I’m busy this year.

    “I know they want that payday but I really don’t understand why they don’t fight each other.

    “Fight each other and then I’ll fight the winner of all of them. I don’t f****** care.”

    It comes after Canelo recently signed a contract for a two-fight deal with Matchroom and DAZN.

    Promoter Eddie Hearn, who promoted both of his last two fights against Caleb Plant and Billy Joe Saunders, struggled to contain his excitement at working again with the Mexican.

    He also responded to claims that Canelo is avoiding fights with Benavidez and Charlo by insisting that he ‘would not dodge anyone’.

    Speaking to FightHype.com, Hearn said: “People say, oh Canelo, oh he ducked Charlo, he ducked Benavidez – absolute bull***t. Canelo will not duck anyone.

    “Canelo wants to at least feel like he’s either gaining something from fighting you or winning a belt or you’ve earned the fight.

    “He looks at Benavidez and he looks at Charlo and he won’t want to say it publicly because he’ll feel like he’s making excuses but he’s like, ‘Those guys don’t fight anybody’, same with Demetrius.

    “It’s not their faults – well it’s probably Charlo’s fault – but it’s not Benavidez’s fault and it’s not Andrade’s fault.

    “I believe David Benavidez wants to be in big fights but they’re not delivering it for him. I know that Demetrius wants to be in big fights. Not sure about Charlo because he’s turned down a lot of big fights.

    “That’s the plan is to put them together but I think that Benavidez will be a massive star and down the road Canelo vs Benavidez is a massive fight.

    “If he can get some decent wins on his resume it will be a massive fight.”

    For once I agree with the ginger-haired diva. He can't fight everyone at once... and everyone's clamoring for the cash cow. Carefully coddled or not (I choose the former)... the fact is he's where he's at, and everyone wants a piece of him. There's all kinds of time for Ginger to fight Benavidez. Ditto with Charlo. Andrade's getting up there in age, but what the hell. Again... I'm happy Ginger's fighting Bivol, without (it appears so far) any diva demands. Unfortunately... Canelo only fights at home, where the judges all have their pockets lined and the Ginger brand is sacred. So Bivol better come to fight, and try and get Ginger out of there. Otherwise it's CJ Ross all over again.

    If judges are needed then Bivol should win on points. He will outbox Canelo as Kovalev was doing before he capitulated late on in their fight. I need to find out how the judges had that fight because Canelo should have been behind.

    i think canelo could also win on the cards like he did against ggg in the second fight. but i see a canelo knockout or dmitry getting bludgeoned in survival mode. the judges had canelo ahead on two cards ninety six to ninety four & even on the third. i had in even after ten

    The judges had it pretty close with Alvarez ahead by one, maybe even on one of them...although that's one I totally disagree with, I don't see why Kovalev was scoring so many points, he was just retreating and tapping Alvarez s gloves the whole fight, the only good punches came from Alvarez and then of course he ended it :S

    I disagree on both counts, @Master.

    Bivol will never win on points. Never. Nunca. Jamais. Nooit. Nie. Not in Vegas, for crying out loud. Bivol would have to drop Canelo in every round to have any chance at getting a decision. And even then it would be split.

    Ginger is the most protected fighter in modern history... and anyone who doesn't believe that is suffering from denial.

    Kovalev fought Ginger like a shell-shocked Bambi. Looks like Andre Ward's KO of him to the body took out any of the bully that used to intimidate opponents. Team Ginger must've watched LOTS of film.

    Bivol's not a murderous puncher.

    So unfortunately he goes for the knockout and risks getting tagged himself..... or he resigns himself to seeing Ginger's arm raised at the end of the fight regardless of who actually deserves the decision.
