Dmitry Bivol will have to be 'grimy' against Canelo Alvarez - Gabriel Rosado
Check for Canelo vs. Bivol on DAZN in your country
Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez's bid to become a two-time world light heavyweight champion is just under a month away.
The Mexican takes on WBA champion Dmitry Bivol in Las Vegas live on DAZN on May 7, and super middleweight contender Gabriel Rosado sees Canelo as a heavy favourite.
"Yeah, I do favour him [Canelo] against Bivol," Rosado said on The DAZN Boxing Show.
"Canelo may not be as big as Bivol, but he’s faster, I think we’re going to see a lot of explosive combinations, a lot of in and out.
"Bivol ain’t the fastest guy, he doesn’t have quick feet.
"He has a good jab, a good one-two, I actually sparred Bivol a few years back here at Wildcard.
"I think Canelo is going to be able to be explosive with his speed, his combinations.
"Bivol is going to have to get a little grimy, use his weight, leaning on Canelo, make it an ugly fight."
