    Benavidez is really entertaining, great talent, great show and he'll end up winning a belt in LHW eventually and will probably end his career as a fat cruiser lol. That said I think both Bivol and Beterbiev beat him

    The 3 B's Bivol, Beterbiev & Benivides are Canelo's bogey men . He slipped up challenging Bivol at 175 & got his clock cleaned but good. Dmitry embarrassed him. Canelo wont defend his 168 belts against Bivol because he knows he cannot beat him. What he'll use as an excuse now that Suliaman cleared the way for Russian fighters to fight for the WBC belt I don't know but he's done it before against GGG remember lol

    Would buy the PPV of any combination of the 3. Like some of the other guys in here, I think Beterviev could KO them both but each day that passes diminishes the likelihood of that being the result. At the moment I have it 72/25 he KOs Benevidez in a great scrap that goes maybe 7 rounds. 65/35 Bivol UDs Beterviev. 80/20 Bivol UDs Benevidez.

    Beterbiev to win, but I think they will duck.

    Just so you guys know, Benavidez has previously had a ring weight of 195lbs and likely still regularly fights at 190. His power isn't going to be that impressive when he stops fighting people he outweighs by 15-20lbs.

    Not like he has masterful boxing skills to rely on.
