    This one's for you CJ. GGG getting his bell rung by repeated bombs.

    How'd you like that Sweat Flying Uppercut?

    How about that Right Hand?

    Say what you will, Canelo has done solid work from 154 to 175. And I never said his opponents at 168 were great, I said Benavidez is untested at the elite level, which is true. All I said is they should go the old tried and true route and fight each other’s opponents for us to gauge them better.

    True, but to be fair Plant was waiting for the cash out before risking that 0. No reason it shouldn’t happen now. Benavidez, Plant, Charlo, we need something!

    Fielding, Smith and Plant were never tested at the elite level. Why does Benavidez need this made up benchmark?

    It’s because Benavidez had one of the belts and Canelo suddenly wanted to fight for that one when it was stripped off him.

    Wow you’re an idiot. All I said was Benavidez gets a lot of praise and y’all make him out to be some beast who will smoke canelo even though he’s fairly untested(I’ll admit he does look good though). I said he should try to fight Plant or any other of canelos opponents (since cinnabuns will be out for a year) which would hype up their possible fight more. Kinda like Spence vs Porter and then Bud vs Porter.

    But his defense though, too sloppy
    Plus he is doing that to absolute cans.

    I want to see how he looks against Plant would be a good litmus test & a great way to hype the Canelo vs Benevidez showdown!

    That’s all I asked, and I get called an idiot. I’ll try again. Fielding, Smith and Plant were never tested at the elite level. Why does Benavidez need this made up benchmark?

    Dude, I never said that Benavidez needs to fight with elite opponents to “deserve” a shot with Red. I’m just saying that he may not be the beast that y’all think he is BECAUSE he’s untested. Maybe I’m the idiot for even arguing with someone like you. You’re being very obtuse.

    “I said Benavidez is untested at the elite level, which is true.”

    The 3 fighters I already mentioned were untested as well. Yet I don’t think you had any issues with them fighting Canelo. Care to clarify?

    They were world title holders. Benavidez is not.
