    I do wanna see that fight as well but, realistically, Benavidez won't be coming back down to 168 unless it's for Canelo and PBC wouldn't let him fight someone on the other side of the street.

    Munguia nearly got stopped by an old Derev coming up from 160, his Canelo fight was still decently entertaining because Jaime came to fight and didn't lie down like other Canelo opponents. I think Mbilli gets countered to the moon but he makes it a fun fight and brings the fight to Canelo with his big, wild shots.

    Munguía got made because it was 5 de mayo and Munguía is mexican and Benavídez is not. Apart from that Munguía was the best fight available apart from Benavídez, so the fight made 100% sense.

    Apart from that I don't get the people's obsesion with Benavídez, tbh. Not that he is Bivol. If the fight happens, perfect! but if it doesnt happens we have lost no durán vs leonard, tbh.

    The fight made 0% sense because there was a better fight to be made.

    I would like to Mbilli vs Berlanga or Derevyanchenko, with the winner possibly getting Canelo. I want to see Derevyanchenko whip Belanga. Berlanga don't deserve a shot at Canelo just by being a Cotto want to be.

    Lol... All? Do you even know WTF you're talking about?:eaea:

    Benavidez WAS the WBC mandatory as of March 2024. It has **** to do with IBF, WBA, and WBO.

    This is how we know who KSAB and who DKSAB.

    There is no better fight than 2 mexicans fighting el 5 de mayo. You can understand it or not, but it doesnt change anything.

    If he isn't willing to fight the best he shouldn't be a champion.

    Yes a better fight is Canelo v Benavidez.
