Former professional boxer Bernard Hopkins is predicting that Canilo Alvarez will smash Dimitry Bivol like "smashed potatoes". He admits that even though Bivol has the height advantage and greater reach, Canilo will still come on top.

It'll be mashed potatoes all over the place, another smash event, he'll smash him, People are really excited to see Canelo, to see whether he stay mentally and physically on top as he has been. If Canelo didn't have the talent and the attributes that he has, yes, but that's not the case. It's going to be about what Canelo wants to do, not what Bivol wants to do."
