FIGHT HIGHLIGHTS | Canelo Álvarez vs. Dmitry Bivol

this is the tail of the tape for our main event of easy the wba light heavyweight championship of the world is on the line both been in their fighting primes 31 years of age it's biebel that will have a height and reach advantage over the much smaller canelo alvarez what's the key here in the first round sergio first rounds to get past how is he going to be able to break that distance that beaver keeps away he knows that he can't get off to a slow start which he usually likes to do daniel why is that because bible is a a puncher that throws shots and bunches he has a large arsenal that he uses but one of them being his punch count so canelo can't start off short it's slow because he'll be backtracked and he's going to throw that jab a lot in his last fight 76 of his punches for jabs talking to bible's team this week they want to be unpredictable with the right hand they thought kovalev was more too predictable when he tried to throw that they want to make canelo thinking about that right hand for most of this fight canelo trying to come around the guard the high guard of beeble right now with lefts and right hooks tight guard being shown here by canelo same type guard that he had in front of kovalev mcmanick said so that jab would be effective even if it's just touching those gloves [Applause] like this he is scoring and these are bothering canelo david you can see the the forehead of canelo getting ready as well so those jabs and those punches even though they're not a lot of power behind the stove in the face that left goes around the guard of beeble he's keeping that hand up high because he has to [Applause] [Music] [Applause] we've seen canelo in the early stages of the fight take his time and then start to figure out his opponent and wear him down sergio do you think he can do that against this bigger man i i just he's gonna have a harder time doing it with beagle because look he was not going to stay against the ropes just like he did there he's always going to have to fight in the middle of the wing and vevo is not loading up on punches as well [Applause] than alvarez so far sitting down on those right hands canelo's been all power shots [Applause] but we've seen this before with canelo alvarez where he's biting his time maybe even losing rounds or close rounds you know it came to plant we see it with b.j saunders and then in a flash he turns it on [Applause] [Music] canelo [Applause] [Applause] just misses [Applause] [Music] [Applause] he's making a point to win this round and back up evil make him feel his power there's a big right hooks over hand right being landed by canelo oh look at bieber look at him go oh my word and canelo wants more of it the crowd wants more of it too is that frustration from canelo no i just think that's disciplined by people i mean he landed his shots got the crowd going to this point then he went back on control that's what he does so well he stays in control no [Music] [Applause] just a moment ago both of you said hey this could be time maybe people got around there's some that probably say wait a minute probably winning this [Music] let's see what chris mannix thinks i've got 68-65 in favor of dimitri people that jab is being used flawlessly as a weapon people is throwing combinations he's landing he's having more success landing punches than really anyone i've seen since gennady golovkin back in 2017-18 and he just did so there it's the 1-2 combination for b-ball and it's been finding its mark most of the night anybody that will tell you how people will win this fight this is how we do it with the one-twos moving in circles staying off the ropes doing exactly what we used to do to win this fight only one man has been vanilla that's a great floyd mayweather jr right he did it by fighting canelo on his turn that's what yeah he's frustrated acts like this canelo is definitely frustrated he's been frustrated let's go let's go let's go yes sir joe when it gets to a point where beagle's hidden just that and he's a bigger guy it's almost very nerve racking for canelo last round but you know i thought canada could have one of those shots could have went down very strong for canelo canelo has fought 18 different world champions only floyd mayweather has beaten him and beagle has only faced two world champions and he's in a position to beat the champion of the war [Applause] a minute to go right hand for canelo jabs from bieber [Applause] i've never seen canelo this fatigue in the fight before uppercut block this time [Applause] did we underestimate dimitri bevo canelo alvarez was a big favorite in the biggest fight of the year but beaver [Applause] [Music] we go to the judge's scorecards tim tina dave moretti and steve weisfeld all score this down identically 115 to 113 for your winner by unanimous decision he's still undefeated and still the way in champion the world [Applause] [Applause] a man that will go down as one of the greatest fighters ever daniel how did he do it he stuck to the game player he used his best attributes which was his speed his power his movements and his discipline most and foremost i feel like he did so well tonight that he surpassed so many people's expectations he should be proud of his performance and also canelo should be proud of himself as well both jobs great guys demetrio pivo kept it with quiet confidence this entire time he's told you that he doesn't need a knockout to win he hasn't knocked out his last six opponents he didn't knock out canelo tonight but he got the biggest win of his career by playing power chess being strategic being disciplined and falling all the way to the finish line [Music]
