Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol Fight Events, Result, Undercard Result, And Potential Rematch
On Saturday at T-Mobile Arena, Dmitry Bivol defeated Canelo Alvarez by unanimous decision in one of the sport’s biggest upsets in recent memory. The battle was scored 115-113 by all three judges, but it wasn’t even close. Bivol dominated from the start and went on to retain his light heavyweight title owing to his superior stature, range, and jab.
Canelo had already climbed to 175 pounds once in his illustrious career, defeating Bivol’s Russian compatriot Sergey Kovalev in spectacular fashion in 2019. But in Bivol, Canelo faced a true light-heavyweight champion, one who remained undefeated as he improved to 20-0, and the Mexican was defeated for only the second time in his career, the first since Floyd Mayweather Jr defeated him in 2013.
