Canelo vs Bivol Prediction:
Alvarez may have gotten more accolades for challenging Bivol than any other fight in his current run of daring to be great. Bivol is statistically among the sport’s leaders He is a good combination puncher who can play chess for 12 rounds. He can mix in body blows and manage bouts from a distance better than anyone in boxing. Bivol’s main flaw is that he prefers to box at a slow pace and doesn’t take risks unless his opponents compel him to. The battle will be fascinating if Bivol is eager to make Alvarez pay for his advancement. Alvarez will eventually find himself at a disadvantage due to his lack of height and reach.
Prediction: Dmitry Bivol will win this fight.
