Bivol is the better boxer of those two, Smith the bigger puncher, so line them up in whatever order. “I’m the biggest fight for any boxer out right now. I set out to live an unbelievable life and accomplish unbelievable things. Benavidez and Plant have called one another out for years, even attempting to get a match booked. Against his toughest opposition yet, there's no doubt we get one of the best fights of 2021 in Crawford-Porter, and maybe even an instant classic. Having claimed the WBA and WBC titles the previous year in a contest against Callum Smith, Canelo entered 2021 with one goal in mind - to win the other two belts. If Alvarez wins that, he’d then be able to chase WBA champion Dmitry Bivol and WBO champion Joe Smith in an attempt to unify again. Lemieux (40-4, 34 KOs) now has back-to-back wins. Lemieux hadn’t been on a notable stage in so long - it was 2018 when he beat Spike O’Sullivan on the Canelo-GGG 2 undercard - that I feel like people forgot just how limited he’s always been.
GGG 2, former IBF middleweight champion David Lemieux takes on Gary "Spike" O'Sullivan. The undefeated IBF super middleweight champion is equally enthused that he has been afforded more than enough time to prepare properly for the biggest fight of his career. A more realistic rival is Gennady Golovkin, who itches for a win against Canelo after losing in their second bout, and a draw the first time. That greater awareness helps us more appreciate the weather and climate, the abundance of nature, agriculture and the food supply, and the importance of protecting those things. He dug hooks to the rib cage of Plant all night, and after awhile, he could take no more. Plant said according to Boxing Scene, confident he can extend his undefeated pro boxing record of 12 knockouts from 21 wins against Alvarez. He may go by many different names, but to the boxing world, he's often referred to as simply "Canelo." A native of Guadalajara, Mexico, Canelo Alvarez had accrued an impressive 42-0-1 heading into arguably the biggest fight of his career at the time, a 2013 bout against none other than Floyd Mayweather Jr. Though he was unable to end Mayweather's undefeated streak, Canelo effectively established himself as a force in the competitive world of boxing, and a fighter who many expect will have a lasting legacy.
The 28-year-old is yet to become a boxing great, but has all the chances of reaching the required level to have his name uttered in the same breath as the greats. Yildirim’s performance against Dirrell - and eventual patience with sanctioning body semantics - was strong enough to have him firmly planted by the WBC as a mandatory challenger. Canelo landing to the body again. Saunders landing some jabs and Canelo needs to pick up the activity. A chance to take the path of least resistance and pick up a belt, any belt, in another weight class. If Benavidez had kept that belt, he would have been standing in the way of Canelo Alvarez's quest to become the undisputed super middleweight champion and surely would have landed a fight with boxing's top star. Canelo Alvarez and Gennadiy Golovkin were on their way to that kind of rivalry. After Alvarez racked up impressive wins over three men with a combined 78-0 record, there is no way Golovkin should be rewarded for fighting Moe, Larry & Curly in the interim. Who is Jake Paul fighting next? He’s done nothing since fighting Alvarez the last time to make anyone want to see him again.
To be honest, every time I come to the ring, I believe in my victory. That was very tedious and also took a lot of time. The second ten-round bout was when he took on Thomas Awimbono in the main event at the PBC in Fox. He’s got PBC behind him, he’s settled at 168 (unless he doesn’t make weight again), and he’s the clear biggest stylistic and physical threat to Canelo among the fighters already at super middleweight. The slick-boxing Saunders gave Canelo trouble with his movement and jab as his Mexican opponent was clearly in pursuit of a knockout, but without the power to keep Canelo off him, he ended up absorbing huge power shots throughout the fight. Defending well. Saunders lands a double jab. Round 6 (11:51 p.m.): Canelo lands a right hand to open the sixth. Nadal vs Ruud in the French Open men's final LIVE! Edgar Berlanga could receive a 'dynamite' fight with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez if he continues to demolish super-middleweight rivals, says promoter Bob Arum. Nicknamed 'The Chosen One,' Berlanga can boost his fearsome reputation in the coming months, with Arum hoping to showcase his explosive power on a string of high-profile bills.
