    Dude, please get Margarito dick out of your mouth. It nauseating. Stop please. We know your best buds with him and we know you would lay down your life for him if he asked. I can't even imagine how you would be if Margarito was actually any good.

    If nothing else Tony is the MAN!! The Fighter!! that made the so called TBE literally **** himself in fear, well more like terror, by just walking Up & asking him "Why wont you fight me Floyd" ? ROFL Floyd blabbered like Daffy Duck, his goons had wandered off & he was unprotected. Those videos are priceless

    LOL Before the Cotto 1 fight people were ridiculing me for predicting he would KO Cotto. I believe a fav insult was calling him The Statue!!! ROFL
    That "statue" kicked Cotto's ass unmercifully didnt he, scaring off both Floyd & Oscar in the process ROFL !!
    Sad part is it sealed his fate No one wanted to fight him , but he had to be got rid of, hence they railroaded him tarnishing his career & good name in the process. Some heros huh ?? That was criminal

    DB def has youth on his side. Its crazy he won his first belt at 20. By any account thats really young let alone at 168 with some pretty big guys

    As others have said, high risk low reward.

    That said, Benavidez isn't some unbeatable monster. He gets hit a lot can can be outboxed. 168 is full of slicksters who will pose interesting stylistic clashes. I don't think anyone is afraid of the guy, they're just all in line for the Canelo money.

    Benavidez only has himself to blame. Lost his belt twice due to lack of discipline.
    And he just recently was talking about rematching Dirrell. The man he absolutely dominated...

    His toughest opponent is himself. And his hands. He needs to use those hands to punch people and not grab food to put in his mouth excessively and leave his nose alone lol

    Because he's a scary massive power punching killing machine with a great chin who brings nonstop pressure and nonstop volume, whose shown he can do well against both pressure fighters and slicksters. It's pretty obvious.

    His little big bro is evil too but from what I've seen on him, which admittedly isn't close to being as much as I've seen of his brother, either in the ring or interviews, he just seems like a feisty mean guy in general whereas David comes across as a gentleman who really enjoys hurting people lol

    Me too

    Wrong, Mayweather wasn't afraid of that plaster wearing clown. If you listen to Mayweather speak, he stammers. You fanboys get little woodies about that conversation. Oh Mayweather was scared. Get out of fantasy land. If Mosely made Margarito into his personal punching bag, Mayweather would have done the same.
