    This fight is going to be an absolute war!

    The younger, fresher, Benevidez will look to stand and bang with Beterbiev. It will be a non stop action blood bath!

    I'll be buying tickets to this if it happens!

    I would probably expect the fight to be in the autumn but what a fight this would be especially if Benavidez looks impressive enough against Morrell.

    Even though Beterbiev should win this, I would still love to see Beterbiev fight Canelo.

    Imagine we saw Beterbiev V prime GGG!

    Benavidez should avoid Artur like the plague

    How does what I said equate to hatred for Benavidez? It’s just a really bad matchup for him.

    Benavidez will need to learn how to fight moving backwards or he is going to gst squashed. DB would need to remain defensively responsible and wait for moments to attack AB. He would have zero chance during AB's prime but now he has father time on his side.

    Those flurries only look good when the opponent is stationary in front of you.

    The last two fights I saw with Beterbiev, he moves very well with his feet and circles outside of the danger.

    Benavidez would be getting reset all night..

    I feel like Benavidez will randomly lose or look bad to some 175lber like the last guy Morrell just fought or someone like that

    Common opponents:

    Peak Gvozdyk who Beterbiev smashed into retirement vs 37 year old semi retired Gvozdyk which Benavidez looked unimpressive and weak against a guy who clearly just showed up for a check

    and

    Radivoje Kalajdzic who just fought a close fight with Morrell who just fought a close fight with Benavidez. Beterbiev destroyed Kalajdzic in 5 rounds. If Kalajdzic fought a close fight with Morrell who fought a close fight with Benavidez that means they are probably all on the same level; which is the level not anywhere near Beterbiev's and Bivol's level who are both 1A and 1B. Benvidez = 3C.

    You are right that Benavidez isn't on Bivol/Beterbiev level ... but Beterbiev is getting old and I think there is some chance that Benavidez catches him at just the right time.

    Bivol will win the rematch.
