Overdue “50%” Canelo Alvarez: justification of injuries or trying to save the Bivol rematch?
Published

Canelo Alvarez claims that he was only “50%“Due to the injury for fighting the lightweight heavyweight champion, Dmitry Bivol in 2022 Alvarez (62-2-2, 39 KO) says that he potentially wants Bivol rematch in 2026, because he wants to” show “that he is a better warrior.
Fans don’t buy it
Fans will not buy that Alvarez is losing because of an injury. It just looked like Bivol was too massive for Canelo and had a style that was livid with him. His highest strength was also an essential factor in his victory over Canelo.
The Mexican star looked exhausted after three rounds. He says he had a hand and knee injury that prevented him from sparring or running during the camp.
Inventing excuses three years after defeat makes Alvarez look somehow pathetic. Even if he had all these problems, why didn’t he try to avenge his loss throughout all these years?
Bivol (24-1, 12 KO) dominated Alvarez, winning a 12-round unanimous decision in a fight, which seemed much more one-sided than narrow results returned by Nevada judges on May 7, 2022.
If Canelo loses another fight with William Scull on May 3 or a match against Crawford on September 13, there will not be much interest to escalate to 175 for a rematch from Bivol. Alvarez might as well stay in 168 to continue his glorious pension route.
“I would like to have this opportunity to have this rematch from Bivol. Ring magazine that he wants to fight again with the unified heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol.
Canelo could fight him in 2022, 2023 or 2024. Alvarez does not make sense to wait until 2026 to fight him. Is he trying to age him? Was he bad all these years? Fear is a probable reason. He didn’t want to beat again. Now that money from Saudi is involved, Canelo is ready to fight Bivol. This will aid soften the blow of another unilateral loss.
“Yes,” Canelo said, responding to the saying that his loss from Bivol “still does not bother him.” He does not bother me, but I want to say: “You learned something from this fight. What things you don’t have to do again?” I have it in myself: “You have to show that you are a better warrior than him.”
Bivol’s loss clearly bothers Alvarez because he would not be not to quit it now. This failure probably persecuted Canelo and he is Gumped in failure, Playing him in his head like an ancient movie.
50% of the claim
“I have 50% of my skills there,” said Alvarez about the fact that it is only half -capacity to fight Bivol in 2022. “Without a state, nothing, because I can’t escape and I can’t throw as I do or do pads and sparring.”
Canelo shouldn’t fight if he was only in “50%”, because fans do not believe in fighters when they give excuses after failures. Nobody would blame Alvarez if he put Bivol to the fight until he was vigorous.
“You can ask Alex Govski. He was there, helping me in this fight. I have a month without sparring because of mine [injured] hand. Yes, “said Canelo, asked if his wounded knee prevented him from running during the Bivol camp.
“I made a good fight, a very good fight, but not enough. Oh, he is good. He is a very good warrior. You see and everyone says:” Oh, he is nothing. He chose a warrior. ” He is a good warrior;

April 19, 2025
Eddie Hearn confirmed today that July 12 is the date of Shakur Stevenson to defend his delicate WBC title against William Zeped on the Ring Card in Modern York. Hearn says Shakur (23-0, 11 KO) met with Turka Alalshikh this week in America and they “Everything has worked out.”
Eddie says that this week he will meet Turka to discuss the Shakur-Zepeda fight at July 12. This is a match that Stevenson has recently called to arouse the interest of fans to unite him and the WBA master Lightweight Gervont Davis.
Patience was tested in Modern York
Fighting Zeped (33-0, 27 KO) can go back to Stevenson because he will force him to fight for the first time in his eight-year career. Zepeda cuts off the ring too well so that Shakur can utilize his ordinary three -time style. If he decides to escape from Zepeda, on July 12 he will be booed in Modern York.
Modern Yorkers are not tolerant of runners. The natives from Newark are more patient in watching fighters who do not engage like Shakur, but the fans of Modern York insist to see the action and get value for their money. They will inform him what they think about his primitive style striking.
So, if Stevenson stays in motion for 12 rounds instead of standing and fighting how Tevin Farmer against Zepeda, he will be thunderous. Turks can live to regret using it for this fight, because it is a bad style for delicate, defensive, non-involving Stevenson. It is better for fighting delicate hitters such as Josh Padley and Artem Harutyunyan.
“July 12 [for Stevenson vs. Zepeda]. They were to make a program on Monday evening. I believe that – said the promoter Eddie Hearn Stamping ground About the agreed date Shakur Stevenson in defense of his delicate title WBC against William Zeda.
Jersey Commute Blues
Hearn did not say if Shakur-Zepeda would be a fight against the card or the main headliner on the card on July 12. This is risky, putting it as the main event, because Zepeda fans are on the west coast in the Los Angeles region, not in Modern York. Stevenson comes from Modern Jersey and it is not clear if his fans would be willing to cope with the headache associated with access to Modern York
“I know his Excellency [Turki Alalshikh] They met with Shakur Stevenson this week in America, “said Hearn.” They have developed everything, which is great news. This is a great fight, Shakur vs. Zepeda. We are waiting for it. I know that July 12 will always be a proposed ring card in Modern York.
We will meet his Excellency on Tuesday to discuss it, 5v5 and all kinds. I can’t wait to welcome him in the city because several weeks have passed since I saw him. When you see him, then magic occurs. I can’t wait to catch up this week, “said Hearn.

“Forget about his skinny legs, Deontay Wilder was number one”
Published

April 19, 2025
World Boxing News analyzes whether Deontay Wilder has ever been considered a pound as the first warrior in the world.
Formable Forbes writer claimed that Wilder was the current P4P dog before the clash of Tyson Fury.
Forbes placed Wilder nad Canelo, Terenca Crawford, Nayya Inoue, Vasiliy Lomachenko and Oleksandr Usyk. This movement was probably more caused by the desire to draw attention.
Of these three, the three united at that time in the division, and four are not unquestioned.
At that time, WBN kept Wilder under great respect as the best weighty weight on the planet after ten basic defensive title WBC. But in no way Wilder took first place.
The pound for the pound is reserved only for the best boxers. Wilder had many achievements before.
Despite this, Forbes emphasized Wilder’s last win.
They said: “When we are going to the last month of 2019 with many solid fights in Ledger, we have a moment to stop and list the ten best fighters in sport.
“After another stunning victory of KO, I think it’s time for everyone to stop criticizing Deontay Wilder for the lack of conventional boxing skills and began to appreciate his dominance.
“How high is Deontay Wilder on the pounds list for pounds? Look.”
Forbes P4P TOP 10 – December 2019
10-man Pacquiao (62-7-2, 39 KO) -WBN took 5
9-Fennades Golovkin (40-1-1, 35 KO)-WBN from the 6th ranking
8-ERROL SPENCE JR. (26-0, 21 KO)-WBN took 4th place
7-Jaan Francisco Estrada (40-3, 27 KO)-WBN Ranking 9
6-ALEXANDR ULEK (17-0, 13 KO)-WBN occupies the 8th ranking
5-Canelo Alvarez (53-1-2, 36 KO)-WBN took 1 ranking
4-Naoya Inoue (19-0, 16 KO)-WBN in the 3rd ranking
3-Vasyl Lomachenko (14-1, 10 KO)-WBN in the 2nd ranking
2-Tell Crawford (35-0, 26 KO)-WBN from the 7th ranking
1-Deontay Wilder (42-0-1, 41 KO)-WBN occupied 10
They added to Wilder: “Forget about his skinny legs. Forget about the scale to become wild when the opponent hurts.
“You just have to know that Wilder’s opponents have the smallest margin of the error of every warrior on the planet.
“Luis Ortiz saw it first hand in his rematch with the WBC master last month.
“One is enough and no warrior embodies this concept literally than Wilder. The first fight with Tyson Fury for the King’s Gypsy, but Wilder is still officially invincible.
“I have no doubt that when Wilder faces a fury in a rematch in February, he will win by Ko. In addition, I am convinced that Wilder also struck Andy Ruiz or Anthony Joshu.”
Hmm. I wonder if this view is still true today?
