The head of the promotional company Matchroom Boxing Eddie Hearn said that he was worried about Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (57-1-2, 39 KOs) in the title fight with Dmitry Bivol (19-0, 11 KOs), comparing their fight with another top meeting, bbabo.net reports.
The fight will take place on May 7 in Las Vegas. The promoter believes that Alvarez risks more than Gennady Golovkin (41-1-1, 36 KOs) in the confrontation with Ryota Murata (16-2, 13 KOs).
Golovkin gave him problems. Canelo predicted defeat
“I probably feel more for Canelo against Bivol than for Golovkin against Murata. Alvarez is good, but I think it’s a difficult and dangerous fight because moving up to light heavyweight definitely puts him at a disadvantage.” position.
But he's also fighting against a young and peak light heavyweight who hasn't taken a hit. This is not Kovalev, who led a bad lifestyle and aged a little. This is peak light heavyweight. So I'm worried about the Bivol fight because I think it's a really tough fight," said Eddie Hearn.
