    The answer should be obvious. If Canelo refused to fight him at the PBC and ran off when pressed to fight Benavidez, it would be totally pointless to go to DAZN to try and get the fight. That question is literally a red herring designed to turn the blame on Benavidez, and anyone who supports it is just a hater or is not thinking logically. Its actually a laughable suggestion.

    What did they make up?

    So they plan to get rich by accepting a 5m low ball offer with no PPV from a likely 1 million ppv fight? They really are geniuses!! Thanks for that amazing analysis and exposing the Benavidez get rich scheme.!!

    Imagine badgering the undisputed champ in your division for the biggest fight in the sport. David really is shameless!

    That does not matter at all if Canelo has decided he will never fight him, which he has.

    Canelo just wants the maximum payday in each fight, so the he's waiting the Benavidez hype gets even bigger. When the time comes, he'll easily burst the balloon called Benavidez.

    Arguably 3, could be 1. Can´t really tell off of one comment.
    Coping is the same as grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.
    I myself am at the acceptance stage.

    No he is not. And anyone who is not full s****, knows Canelo doesn't want that fight.

    Why should he leave PBC, as the guy obviously is thankful to PBC, as we don't know exactly what's going on behind stage.

    Is there a single offer for that fight, where PBC is the roadblock, and Benavidez needs to leave them, so to make the fight ? No, so the one that is chatting BS is you and Canela fans, who are trying to justify this duck.

    Firstable no it's not, and secondable, your Gypsy Queen didn't want the fight even at 70-30.
    And there is a big difference, as Usyk opposite to Benavidez holds 3 of the major belts + 2 more.
    So go cry more.

    It's beyond pathetic for the posters on here that are trying to defend and excuse Canelo blatant ducking of Benavidez for the last few years. This is nothing else but a huge duck. Canelo is in his prime, and i don't buy the b.c. that he is faded and all that kind of b.c. He was always like that, and nothing faded, he was never ever been elite in my books and always lacked good cardio, which can be seen against fighters who actually have a good cardio.
    GGG 1, GGG 2, Bivol are a very good example of this.

    You can say that about a lot of fighters if you want to pry into their careers.

    Yes, I suppose we can. But it won't even take a great deal of prying if Benavidez goes on to have a HOF career, now will it?

    But that's on Benavidez.
