Usyk vs Benavidez

Even old Usyk would piece him up

 

Jesus Christ.

One good left hand from Usyk and it will be nighty night.

 

yeah maybe. But Usyk has slightly above average power at heavy. Benavidez has amazing hand speed but i don't think his power is at that level. Let's say if Benavidez was fighting at heavy. Would he have enough pop to hurt Joshua or Fury? i am skeptical because Benavidez isn't a huge puncher even in his weight class, so i don't think he could carry it up.

 

Surely this is out of the question now. Uysk has to do Kabayel, and, if he has enough left, move on to Rico rematch.

then again, if Usyk abandoned all ABCs and took the Zuffa belt...

 

Usyk eats come forward volume punchers for breakfast. Makes counter punching very easy.

 

Completely agree except Benny gets walloped...

 

To me this would be madness for David before he gets his body mass up to cruiser at least. Usyk has 50 pounds on him currently. By the time David reaches size, Oleksandr is probably retired.

 

His toughest fights in his career have been against strong pressure fighters. Briedis, Chisora and Rico. He actually struggles against good pressure fighters. What you said is literally the opposite of reality. That should trouble you.

 

Right now I would pick Benavidez to win. Cautiously of course. Usyk could be Benavidez's John Ruiz for sure.

 

man, I want Bivol-Benavidez. But Benavidez can’t do his Mexican thing here. He needs to ring walk to Metallica, wrapped in the goddamn American flag, wearing USA trunks. Let’s fire back up the Cold War for this.

ok to be serious if he can get an insane payday from Turki to serve himself up to Usyk, he’d be dumb not to. Pretty easy excuse for that loss, and making 50mil or something for one fight is not a chance he’ll ever get again.
