"Nobody gave a sh**"- Rolly Romero dismisses Canelo Alvarez's loss to Dmitry Bivol
Rolly Romero has dismissed the fight between Canelo Alvarez and Dmitry Bivol. Alvarez, the Undisputed Super-Middleweight Champion of the world, fought Bivol on May 7 at the T-Mobile Arena for the latter's WBA Light Heavyweight Championship and suffered the second loss of his career. In a recent interview with TMZ Sports, 'Rolly' gave his thoughts on Alvarez losing to the Russian:
"So Canelo fought what, like two weeks ago, two or three weeks ago. Yeah three weeks ago, and nobody gave a sh** about that fight, nobody talked about it... Until after this you know the decision, obviously the upset everybody's gonna talk about that sh**, you know? But prior to the fight nobody talked about this sh**."
'Rolly' compared his fight against Davis to the Canelo vs. Bivol fight. He wanted to say that there is much more talk and hype around their May 28th match-up than there was for Alvarez fighting the Russian. The fight was an upset as the Russian put on a masterclass of discipline, defense, and counter-attacking to outclass the Undisputed Super-Middleweight Champion.
Fans may have to wait a full year before seeing a Bivol-Canelo rematch 🗓 https://t.co/EQaRyOxWCN
It will be interesting to see if the fight between Rolly and Davis generates more buzz in its aftermath than Canelo vs. Bivol.

"Moth******er pushed me as simple as that, he's scared... I'm an alpha compared to him. He a b***h, man. He a b***h for that, man. That could have fu***d up the fight if I twisted an ankle or some s**t, the fight's over, no?"
