    Do we really think this is going the distance? Good odds right now for the fight to not go the distance.

    Zurdo is not great by any stretch of imagination. He cannot be part of a great fight. Benavidez did what everyone expected. Its a shame David never got Canelo or Bivol or Beterbiev

    This only shows Benavidez was weight bullying at 168 and below if he is able to destroy a Cruiserweight champ and put him in the hospital

    Inoue not breaking eye sockets and ending a boxing Champs careers at 122. Benavidez was more like Fundora at 168 and below and now we know why Canelo ducked him.

    I think I was half right when I said this would be a sloppy fight, Zurdo showed me nothing and he looked sluggish. I didn't think Benavidez would be that sharp at that weight but he looked on point but then again Zurdo would make anyone look good.

    Not the weight bully argument again. Every boxer rehydrates. You make weight you make weight. its not about what you walk round weight. Hatton , may he rest in peace , walked around as high as 200 lbs when not fighting. Yet no one will call him a weight bully for fighting at 140 and 147.

    It is only weight bullying when it is the guy you don’t like or the guy that beat your fighter.

    David could go up to HW and beat guys up there and they’ll call him a weight bully lol. He’s just a physical specimen. It’s crazy how much he’s improved since the mamas boy denis douglin days
