    I remember the WBC saying they would mandate the winner of the WBSS (Diamond belt holder) to fight the full champion (Benavidez).

    Since then Benavidez was supposed to be making another mandatory defence against Anthony Dirrell which haven't happend, but also got caught for indulging in the Columbian marching powder so it's all a bit up in the air atm.

    But if it does eventually get made who you got?

    Hope this happens next. I want Smith to strive for greatness as opposed to picking up “names” on his cv like Degale.

    Is Benavidez with Haymon? Odds against it happening if so. Guy will happily pay him off to sit on his ass for 6-9 months rather than see him seek a big fight that would be promoted by a rival.

    Benavidez outpoints Smith everyday of the weak.

    Too quick, too fast, too mobile.
