Mike Tyson breaks down why Canelo lost to Bivol on punchbag

When watching the boxing, no matter how big a fan we actually are, we all love to analyse what is going on.

Who better to hear talking about a big fight than one of the greatest fighters of all time, however, in the Baddest Man on the Planet Mike Tyson.

The matter at hand is regarding Iron Mike’s breakdown of the Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez bout from the weekend. Canelo was, of course, heavy favourite going into the bout, but instead, he picked up just the second defeat of his pro career. Russian Dmitry Bivol was the man to beat Canelo.

Tyson points to Canelo’s jab, or lack thereof, as the reason for his defeat.

Speaking in a video posted to social media, Tyson said: “I just think if Canelo was using his jab effectively, hard, the guy [Bivol] wouldn’t have been able to come in.

“The guy was coming in because he wasn’t worried about Canelo’s jab. So he got more aggressive, he got brave. If he’s not jabbing, he has no defence. If he’s not gonna jab, the guy’s gonna walk right in on him like he did.”

In the clip, the legendary boxer then took to his own punchbag to demonstrate where and how he thinks Canelo went so wrong.
