Lets hope Bivol does not follow Canelo like a lost puppy and chase greatness himself by taking on Beterbiev/Smith winner rather than waiting around for the rematch.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Bivol offered to do the rematch at 168 and Canelo’s team chose GGG. Tells you everything you need to know.
Now recently I have given Canelo a lot of praise and respect.
But if that was any other fighter that did that they would be called Duck, Chicken and just about every other farmyard animal you can think of.

What are some people saying that Canelo is duck or chicken to rematch Bivol at 168?
Yep, but he got beat. That should change EVERYTHING! so what, just airbrush the Bivol defeat from his record like some people try to airbrush the Floyd defeat out.
I heard on more than one occasion in the build up to the Bivol fight from Media that don’t normally involve themselves in Boxing Canelo being called “The undefeated……..” it’s pathetic.

canelo did lose but the plan announced before the fight was dmitry & then ggg. if canelo had won there would be those complaining canelo was avoiding artur by fighting ggg next. canelo can't win. it's not like canelo has kept the ggg fight secret & then snuck it in there. i am not airbrushing the defeat from canelo's record. canelo took on a massive challenge & came up short. no shame in that. let's see where things go from here. i'd prefer dmitry against the artur v joe winner than an immediate rematch with canelo
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Golovkin can't wait around forever and if the plan was for Canelo to fight him next... so be it. I think GGG will get starched, but c'est la vie. He fought Canelo stupidly when he had his chance... and now he's older and more shop-worn. He just wants to cash out and I guess can't blame him for that. I never wanted a 3rd Canelo-GGG fight, but it is what it is.
I also don't think much of Bivol going down in weight to challenge Canelo. He's going to be a weaker version of himself, and give up the main advantage he had over Canelo.
Besides... after seeing the judges scores after the Bivol fight.... who in their right minds thinks they can win a decision over Canelo??!??
Those f*cking judges must've been crying as they turned in their scorecards, knowing they had blown their assignment.

I hope Golovkin can go out with his head held high.
Golovkin's chin is still made out of granite, but he looks very susceptible to body punches & I can envisage Alvarez folding him in half with body punches & stopping him late.

Then there's this.![]()
BTW, let me go on record by saying it doesn't reach the 8th round. I don't usually predict rounds, and GGG may very well pleasantly surprise me (early Xmas gift for me)... but the old man's ripe for the picking, and Ginger doesn't have to worry about losing a decision (proven fact). He'll go at GGG with abandon and the full confidence of outweighing Golovkin by 10-15 pounds by fight night. TKO for Ginger before the 8th round.
in regards to primo carnera's post the plan that i am aware of was always dmitry & then ggg next. who else would you choose to pick ggg off next? canelo does have to worry about losing a decision, as he lost his last fight by decision, proven fact. we'll have to weight until fight night to see if in ring weights are posted. i still favour canelo by knockout in eleven or twelve or a close decision either way

The rivalry between Gennady Golovkin and Canelo Alvarez has been ongoing for many years. The pair always seemed destined to collide in one way or another and now, as we approach their third and likely final meeting, it appears as if their feud has become more bitter than ever before.
In addition to the pair wanting to be known as the superior boxer, they’ve also been trading some personal shots at one another through press conferences and a variety of interviews. Of course, Canelo is the one who has the bragging rights at this moment in time, given that he holds one win over GGG with their initial meeting being a draw.
Still, that hasn’t stopped Golovkin from letting the world know what he thinks about the Mexican sensation, as he did once again during a recent interview.
“When someone is unable to see reality, that is his problem, it says a lot about him. His behavior at the press conference shows how insecure he is, how he still lives in illusions about the situation, the stories. He drew his own conclusions based on the first press conference. His behavior was different in the second. He analyzed that he looked ridiculous [in the first one]. For a fighter of this caliber, someone who wants to be great, shows that he still needs to grow, he needs to learn a lot. He is far from being the best,” Golovkin said.

Even matchup
Ginger wins by mid-round KO.
He should go into the fight as a 1/100 favorite.
