A fight against Thurman would be great, and I think Thurman will win and that would make him one of the top contenders to fight the champion. Imagine, if the fight of Spence vs Crawford will not happen, then we can still see Thurman fighting one of them if the promoter will agree.

I'd say it's 50/50

Thurman lose against Pacquiao, but Ugas won. Ugas lose against Porter, but Thurman won.

I think the lose from Spence before will giving Ugas a good lesson because this is the first time he got KO'ed and would make him to improve his chin. However if the fight will happen, it's not surprised if Thurman will be favorite because he have better record.

Well, the fight between Spence and Crawford must happen for me, they have to be very stupid not to take advantage of this business to generate more money, on the other hand, many forget that this November and December will be full of emotions from the best sport in the world or the most favorite all over the world which is football, the world cup will monopolize all the attention of the people, or at least of the majority, then that is where you should take advantage of doing everything possible to do all the fights to keep fans aware of boxing and above all to make the respective bets, this is something they should not give up doing.

No news yet about Canelo yet on whom he will likely face next because he just came out from a trilogy fight against his long rival, Golovkin. Some rumors saying that he will activate his rematch after Bivol-Ramirez fight but I guess Canelo will not activate that if Ramirez will win because Bivol won't have belts by that time.

Recent rumors are saying that Canelo might activate the rematch if Bivol succeeds on his title defense against Zurdo and that might pursue because Bivol has nothing to do afterwards as Beterbiev is currently injured and he also have his own title defense he needed to win.

Also, if you guys remember our past discussion on Canelo's contract, I think it was written somewhere in that said contract that Canelo will face 3 boxers this year or hopefully next year 1st quarter, we already know the 2 boxers namely Bivol and Golovkin. Now, can somebody here guess who's that 3rd boxer? Or can someone confirm that there's indeed 3rd challenger?

Don't have any idea about that but considering that Bivol has his own upcoming fight, it might not be him for this year. But if it's coming next year, the chance of him and Canelo to have their rematch is possible if Bivol will take down Zurdo. We might see Canelo's camp to pursue that intention to have the rematch, for sure it might be more money for both fighters even this time Bivol can ask for more cut compared to what he got last time.

with Canelo's win over GGG, wondering here if he will still be the favourite if he fights Bivol. because last time, bivol was underdog. so am thinking that bookies may favour canelo here. but the odds will be tight. this will be an interesting re-match if this will happen early next year. since bivol is the belt holder, high likely that he will get the bigger cut over canelo.

I think he will still be the favorite against Bivol in this will have their rematch, although it might be closer this time, specially if Bivol will win by knockout against Ramirez or if he dominates him just like how he beat Canelo.

So it's important for Bivol to show another great performance so that he will be fighting Canelo next. And for sure I'm thinking that it will be greater that their first fight because people wanted to see if Canelo can avenge his defeat or if Bivol is really too much for Alvarez.

I am one of the people who should be most in favor of Canelo, but seeing all the events, let's put in context that Canelo has a very strong injury in his hand, after the fight he said that he wants his hand surgery quickly oprque the pain is unbearable, and no matter how good he is, a boxer with a bad hand is not a good thing, so Bivol is not just any boxer, the Russian has a lot of strength, a lot of strength and his technique is not just any, he has very good strategies and that's it He beat him, so I think that when Canelo is done he should postpone it, because fighting with a hand injury is very hard.

Kind of crazy that Mayweather is saying him and McGregor are going to rematch and McGregor is saying he’s not interested. Starting to seem like Mayweather is losing his shine a bit if he’s chasing MMA fighters around for fights. I sort of thought he’d be retired by now but he keeps fighting exhibitions. He’s addicted to boxing.

Can't really blame him because that is Money Mayweather's passion and he is doing his best to do some exhibition fights anywhere in the world while he still can and while he's still known to the public. No denying that doing some exhibition fights is one of his easiest way to make money because of what he had achieved in his time. Sooner or later, that fire that keeps him fighting will burn-out and even Mayweather can't evade that.

That's true, Remember the Mayweather vs Logan Paul fight? I didn't believe that Mayweather would fight Logan Paul even on an exhibition boxing match even their weight differences are far different from each other. It's about money and it's what we are all thinking for the reason why Mayweather agreed. Mayweather is retired but I think he is still utilizing his strength and take a chance in making money thru his boxing skills. Shall we expect another Mayweather odd exhibition match?

Who could turn down easy money, right? I don't know who's the mastermind behind that exhibition fight is, but it's a win-win situation for both of them. Logan Paul has large fan base just like brother and Mayweather has the same because of what he attained in the boxing industry before he retired, so it's a good equation that resulted to a million-dollar revenue.

Shall we expect another Mayweather odd exhibition match?

Recent speculation is that there may be a Mayweather vs McGregor 2, don't know if it's true but maybe both camps are already talking behind the scenes especially now that McGregor didn't get some fights in UFC since he was injured and defeated by Dustin Pourier last year. He looked so buffed in his recent pictures and seems that he is planning for heavyweight in his comeback in UFC, but even that is not yet confirmed by any sources.

Well, to tell the truth, I have a very vague position when it comes to exhibition fights that have to do with Mayweather, because he is a very controversial boxer, and he does not stop doing things so that everything goes his way, to My nadi gets me out of my head that there had to be a lot of money to have won the fight with Pacquiao, so those things, in particular, I will always have mistrust when it comes to him, because before being a boxer, I see him as a businessman, too He's a good boxer, but it's like we say in South America, he's very "mañoso" to get things, so that makes the sense of boxing decline, at least that's what I think.

Plus there's something you need to know just in case if Bivol doesn't want to fight Canelo:

The best three options for Canelo Alvarez if the Dmitry Bivol rematch doesn't happen

Quote

The face of boxing does not have a shortage of opponents to face if Dmitry Bivol somehow gets removed from the menu. Here are three options for Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez in the case a Bivol rematch doesn't work out.

Gilberto Ramirez, Jermall Charlo, David Benavidez...

It's a very good article, informative because I don't know if Bivol will give him a rematch or if Canelo doesn't want to fight him, although the Russian is very jealous of how he is.
