Mexican Saul (Canelo) Álvarez could agree to a rematch with the WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitri Bivol at the end of his career to earn a large sum. This opinion was shared with by the Russian boxer’s coach Gennady Mashyanov.
Bivol, recognized as the best boxer of 2022 according to many versions, has 21 victories in the professional ring (11 by knockout) and not a single defeat. In his last fight last November, Bivol defeated Mexican Gilberto Ramirez by unanimous decision. Before that, in May 2022, the Russian beat Alvarez by unanimous decision.
— Will Alvarez have a rematch with Bivol, or should we forget about this issue?
– (Laughs). I do not even know. Alvarez fought the first of three fights under his contract on the new channel. And then, perhaps, he will charge such an amount that even if he loses, he will have enough to retire. Basically, (a rematch with Bivol) in order to win the last jackpot. Alvarez is proud and ambitious. And this defeat of Dima eats Canelo from the inside. Watch his pre-fight interview with Charlo, where he talked about Dima. Well, you take it with a smile. Well, if you are looking for an excuse, go out for revenge and prove that you are the best! – Mashyanov said in an interview with .
On Saturday in Las Vegas, Canelo made his third successful defense of the absolute super middleweight world title in a fight with American Jermell Charlo. Alvarez, 33, has 60 wins, two draws and two losses against Bivol and Floyd Mayweather in 2013.
