    Plus I believe Jack is a Muslim so the Arabs will be supporting him.

    Man, I'm disappointed. I know what he's going after, a 5th divisional title and historical in the sense that he'd be the first from Mexico to achieve it, but nobody is asking for this fight especially at no CW. Jack isn't a completely shot fighter and can be a sharpshooter so this fight can very well backfire on Canelo and take away from his drawing power if he were to lose. If you're going to take a meaningful risk, do it against Benevidez.

    He only gets away with BS weight stipulations because he's the cash cow! many mexican fight fans and media are turning on him for refusing to fight Benavidez

    Backfired against SRR as well. Backfired amongst a bunch of greats (Saddler, Pep, etc)

    Well that's disappointing... Guess Benavidez will have to wait.
