    Change your name from oldschoolboxing to nobrainboxing. You have no understanding of boxing. Boxing is and always has been about weight. How the hell are you saying this isnt true.

    Why should he fight Beterbiev? Beterbiev is a light heavyweight and bigger than Canelo. I think it's Benavidez who should fight Beterbiev, they are similar size.

    Canelo fought Bivol and lost. He challenged him and failed, we should all respect that.

    I want to see Benavidez vs Opetaia. That would be a fair match. Let's see if Benavidez is truly a great fighter as people here claim.

    I didn't say guys Benavidez´s size who fight at cruiser and heavy should move down to 168 and fight Benavidez.

    I said Benavidez should move up and fight those guys.

    Neither did I.
    I asked if they could make 168? Because Benavidez can.

    Why stop there? Why not heavyweight? Mike Tyson was the same height. And while we are at it , why arent everyone 5’7 fighting at super middleweight? According to you these guys are all cheaters. There shouldn't be anyone at 160 and bellow taller than 5’7.

    But it's not a merit nor ingenuity making 168 and bullying smaller fighters.

    Can they or can they not?
    We are not talking about merit here, don´t change the discussion.

    Benavidez has been at 168 his whole career, he deserves and opportunity to chase for the undisputed champion. He shouldn´t have to move up in weight because the champion is 5´7.

    They don't want to make 168 and they won't. They're happy competing in their natural weight classes. It's the likes of Benavidez who go to lower weight classes and bully smaller fighters and take advantage of being bigger. There's no honour in that.

    Oh my, you believe guys like Opetaia, Okolie, Smith Jr, Gassiev and Lerana just chose not to fight at 168?

    Yes, they compete at their natural weight classes where they can compete fighters similar to their size.

    It's not fair nor honourable to "make the weight" and fight smaller fighters. As I said, he dehydrates himself to make the weight on scale day, and is much heavier than his opponent on fight day. He uses is size, raach and strength advantage. This is same as high school seniors bully junior students. No honour in that.

    Do you honestly believe the guys at 200 and up can make 168lbs if they wanted to?

    Reading comprehension would help you s ton here lol. Never said anything about Charlo being a money fight, it's about the money Canelo basically hands out to whomever he fights, money none of these guys would ever see on their own, not even facing each other. It's about who, what, when, where, how, and why Canelo wants to do business with fighter X. Deserving doesn't mean ****, I learned that before I could become a Mayweather fan. This stuff is happening on a higher level than sanctioning bodies bs. Every fight for Canelo is a money fight doesn't matter if he fights you in a broom closet. I haven't said once Benavidez doesn't deserve the fight, I just don't personally feel he's done much to separate himself from the rest, which is kinda crazy hearing stories of rehydrating to 195 lbs in ring and such. Even with that sort of advantage he's still being careful himself. That's boxing. And Benavidez and his fans feel hes being ducked, If I were in his shoes I'd go eliminate the the possibilities for Canelo. If he takes Charlo right now, I'm killing Mungia the same night he beats Charlo on the undercard. Im knocking Morrell back into being a prospect too before the year ends. Im makikg it where theres absolutely no choice but to fight me. These guys do too much sitting and leaving ways to get around them. Unrelated but just an example of how PBC manuvers. Crawford reportedly isn't interested in a Spence rematch he wants lil Charlo for another undisputed step. Charlo takes basically takes a hiatus due to personal turmoil and Crawford pivots to Tszyu, PBC immediately makes a match with Thurman for a non title fight to force Crawford's hand back towards Spence. Crawford asks for Canelo, he rules it out. If PBC wanted that fight now they wouldn't offer Charlo over Benavidez.

    You wrongly called my friend of over 20 years a cheat who loaded his gloves. That was proven to be Bull Feces started by a blatant lie. He was fighting at 15 yrs old against seasoned pro's to . So was Manny Pacquaio
    What else can you call Canelo he cowardly handed back the WBC belt because he feared GGG even his fellow Mexicans named him El Pollo Rojo over that He's been ducking Benavidez, his #1 contender for years. Made a faux pas believing Bivol was a easy cherry pick like his others WRONG!!!!!!! Dmitry handed him his azz made him look a fool lol, Ginger claimed Bivol was too big , plus he was "injured" , plus he had a bad camp ROFLMAO!!! So Dmitry offered to fight him at 168 his weight for Gingers 168 trinkets Ginger sad NO!!
    I;m going to fight the Charlo's who haven't fought for years. Explain how that is not the career of a coward?????
    C'mon we are waiting !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
