This fight will be a good matchup as you have two superior boxer-punchers who know how to use distance to control the ring. Expect Bivol to set in the pocket and invite Canelo to come on the inside in hopes of catching him with sharp jabs and counterpunches.
Canelo is also a good counterpuncher so expect him to move forward behind his jab to set up hard shots to Bivol’s body. Bivol is an excellent boxer, and Canelo is a superior power-puncher. Both fighters can sit in the pocket and bang as well.
Canelo vs. Bivol is going to be a great fight. So, who wins? Bivol is a superior boxer-puncher which could give Canelo problems. Canelo is also a boxer-puncher with damaging body punching. This fight will be close, so close that this fight will end in controversy.
Expect Bivol to do enough to win this fight, but he will not get the decision against Canelo.
