THAT round 5 combo - Bivol v Canelo

[shifty]

Most significant part was when Bivol backed up and Canelo taunted him and told him to come back in, Bivol didn't. He realized he just won the exchange and stayed disciplined, instead of letting pride and ego take over to put him back into an unnecessary exchange.

[p.s.]

Every time Canelo leaned into the ropes to bait Bivol, he didn't engage. Every time Canelo tried to take a moment to rest, Bivol applied pressure. Every time Canelo tried to land the left hook as the end of his 3-punch combo, Bivol was already 2 meters away. It was a masterful performance.

When you're only using basic skills on an enemy, but you're level 200.

Man, what a showcase of discipline. He literally executed his gameplan till perfection. He just left little to no room for Canelo to capitalize on.

What surprised me is how bivol managed to get into canelo's head during this fight i mean 50 plus fights i expected him to be calm en composed as he's always been but the frustration he was showing by doing things that he never lifting bivol up that's what makes me see that canelo knew that he was beat despite him saying he thinks he won the fight.he was mentally beat

[billyparham]

the way bivol kept his composure after being taunted is the essence of this fight. he never took the bait. unlike canelo he never lost his cool. he was like a perfect boxing machine executing a plan. beautiful fight

[EquitableCitizen]

Canelo: "He has simple 1-2 combinations, easy"
Bivol: 1-2 * 4

[ham]

Bivol never went too heavy on his punches, put just enough snap on them to minimize the risk of getting countered

[rushuddin]

That left hook straight right was beautiful to see; back to basics, but equally, you can see how Canelo read it the second time round and Bivol knew to take a step back and go again

[artembless]

great offense by canelo, almost broke bivol's hands with his face

[pleasedontgetmad]

That weight division is too much for canelo, Bivol is a strong big fighter and his boxing skills and IQ is on a different level.

If he can't beat Bivol then imagine him fighting Usyk. Canelo will be obliterated.

[JassimBjj]

Perfect gameplan, stuck to the basics, phenomenal performance by Bivol.

Canelo tried what Pacquiao did and achieved when he defeated Margarito. But if we compare Margarito and Bivol im sure Bivol is better but even so, Pacquiao onesidedly demolished Margarito even though Margarito weighed about 20 pounds heavier when the fight happened. Pacquiao skills when he was on his prime were on leagues above the rest.

[spencerantoniomarlen-starr]

Damn, that was like 7-9 punches straight, you almost never see that at this level of boxing, especially with Lightheavyweights!!

Let’s all take a moment to appreciate how the sweetest science can generate such deep conversation from a mere 20 second clip.

[ashishnair]

Bivol was splendid.
Cheers to Canelo was chasing greatness, maybe this is the limit for Canelo.

[JamieEffingG]

Canelos was the real life version of that monte python skit, where dude cut every one of the black knights limbs off. Then when he starts walking away the black knight goes"fine, we'll call it a draw then"

[ruslantatevosyan]

Bivol is on another level. Better footwork, faster hands, bulletproof defence, larger breath and stamina and iron discipline. He just took Canelo to boxing school and taught him a lesson!👏👏👏

[bulletproofman]

Bruh, Canelo was no threat to Bivol. One of his easiest fights of recent memory.
Respect to Canelo for trying, dude needs to sharpen his technical boxing skills, can't KO everyone.

[ptb]

Bivol didn't even get out of 2nd gear. Easy win. Canelo should stick to the weights he is meant for.
