Defense?! He ran! He ran like a cheetah, not fight like the Lion he said he was! Stop making excuses, SA! 😂

[Brucelee]

Hello Stephen A, Jermell had all the advantages, larger reach, larger frame, way taller. They said canelo was washed and old, haters counted him out, they said charlo was to slick for canelo, they said charlo was to fast for canelo. Even when canelo went up and bivol was hitting him hard, he still went toe to toe instead of running scared. Canelo is never scared even when loosing.

Give credit to Canelo making it look easy against an undisputed champion

[OscarCeballos]

Don't make excuses for Charlo he's a weight bully in his own division

[leobardobivianomedia]

Canelo's skills were on full display. Let's start recognizing the elite level this man has brought to the game.

[Christian.Anguiano]

You can’t make excuses for charlo, he even said out of his own mouth “I’m the big charlo, I’m bigger than canelo” the better fighter won that night

[chi-]

So its ok for Canelo to jump to 2 weights to fight Koalev, but another guy can't jump to fight Canelo? Why is that?

[buukkreider]

Now, if Canelo rejected Charlo - then he would have never heard the end of it. Canelo was actually going to fight Jermall Charlo who is the Middleweight champion at 160, but Jermall said he wasn't ready, and gave the assist to his brother. Now, many boxing experts picked Jermell over Canelo. Many boxers, especially Black boxers picked Jermell to beat Canelo. In recent fights, Canelo has not been fighting at the level pre-Bivol; therefore, this was a good risk worth the taking $$$$ - Both fighters have been criticised for this fight. It's funny how they were excited during the anticipation of this fight. When the fight took place, they suddenly found fault. People...

Charlo wasn’t sitting on any of his punches. He just wanted to survive.

[baytownklownable]

After the Jacobs fight at 160 Canelo jumped up to 175 and got a KO and a belt.

Saul "Canelo" Alvarez
Best Middleweight & Super Middleweight Of His Generation!! 🥊

[CameronWilliams-ek]

As we saw Canelo was just honestly the better fighter period

[ananavarro]

That's crazy how a lot of people was saying that charlo was going to beat canelo and they was saying that canelo was scared

[JoseTorres-vpsk]

"Come on ya'll, come on ya'll"...Charlo knew what he was getting himself into when he signed the contract to fight Canelo. This dude's always shading on Canelo 'cause he's not a black boxer and finding excuses for his black boxers when they fail to perform. "Come on ya'll, come ya'll"...you can't do that to Canelo for beating up Charlo who weighed in the same weight, was taller and had a longer reach. Skills is what beat Charlo that night!

[silvesterjimenez]

Now everyone is saying canelo was too big come on men charlo signed the deal knowing he was going up 2 divisions to fight the best fighter of our era!!

[gaiali]

Canelo took clean shots from Light Heavyweight Dimitri Bivol. Canelo's face expressed a serious "DaYUM that was crazy hard" expression. The fact that Canelo wasn't dropped was something to see. No one should be surprised that Jermell's shots had little effect.

[kujinsan]

David Benavidez is tailor made for canelo. He leaves those love handles exposed way too much. Its gonna be Callum Smith all over again.

[frankiewhitmore]

And People Really Really thought Charlo Had A Chance, 💯

[danielalcala]

Just to let you know canelo is always on disadvantage when it comes to height and reach. Those really really matter in boxing as well. He never complains!

[toponeroc]

Hold up, Charlo was the one saying he could be Canelo 😂
