Think you're right. While Benavidez has the size and strength to overwhelm most guys, the defensive holes are apparent. Against a skilled counter puncher like Nelo, the holes are going to get exploited if and when that match happens. Having said that, Benavidez is still the biggest threat to nelo, and that fight should happen sometime next year.
I agree Canelo needs to fight Benavidez, but Beterbeiv? Thats ridiculous. Canelo can't hurt him, cant intimidate him, can't outbox him, can't run from him and for damn sure can't take that kind of firepower on the chin. All of that would get multiplied by Canelo walking into the ring with zero confidence to begin with because he's knows he stands no chance. Thats not how you fight. Thats how you get executed.
Benavidez is a vicious supermiddleweight and wants absolutely nothing to do with Beterbiev. David even said he doesn't want to fight Beterbiev.
Canelo is a fake & a fraud. Just like his predecessor He's picked his cherries like a fruit farmer. Made the mistake with Bivol though & got his ass kicked Dmitry made him look like a journeyman. So even his fan boys say NO!! don't rematch Bivol @168 he's too good for you. Don't worry he wont LOL I doubt very much after last night that he'll entertain Benividez either
He hasn't got the Cojones or the skills to fight Bivol again @ 168 lol Canelo is Like Floyd a manufactured champion
Canelo waited too long. Fight won't happen now unless Canelo is convinced by someone to pass the torch. Canelo is fading while Benevidez is improving every day. Can't age him out like he did to GGG. Should have fought him 2 years ago.
Yes, Canelo should just stay away from 175 for now. Fight David, that's his "legacy fight" that will be a huge feather in his cap if he can win. Nobody wants to see Canelo "daring to be great" moving up in weight again just to lose and he can shrug his shoulders saying he tried. Cement the legacy at 168 THEN he can give it one more shot against the winner of Bivol/Beterbiev. He can then retire win lose or draw because he did everything he was supposed to do. But avoiding David is career suicide at this point similar to Bowe/Lewis.
That's all you've got isn't it LOL Silly answers or yet another snipe at Antonio Margarito Neither Floyd nor Canelo would dare get in the ring with Antonio The Tijuana Tornado Margarito when he had two good undamaged eyes. He was a FIGHTER!! Those two are frauds & a pair of clowns
Dude nobody gives a **** about Margarito this isn't 2010 move the hell on and stop derailing the thread.
I was just answering Olu's silly post, funny how you Canelo/Floyd huggers don't want to hear about Margarito isn it. I know why though Those two frauds would never dare to fight him lol Have a nice day
Benavidez is a ****ing monster. This fight would be absolute fireworks. Think it happens next May. If Benavidez wins, no one at 168 will give this guy a challenge. At 175, Beterbiev will be aged by then and Benavidez would beat him. The Bivol fight would be a great fight.
That he's faced just about everyone will be somewhat overshadowed if he ducks Benavidez. Of course, Beterbiev would be substantially more dangerous, but it would still be unsatisfying if he faces him instead of Benavidez. I want to see that fight.
