    Its the 4th warmup fight in a row.
    GGG, Ryder, Charlo now Munguia. Everybody is asking for the Benavidez fight. Whats the all the stalling about?
    Is Canelo just milking his cash cow status before cashing out or is he that confident that he'll still beat him down the line?

    Canelo is milking his status and PBC will too.

    Sure. Why not? It'll be fun. I'll give Canelo the benefit of the doubt and assume that after he bestows the golden parachute upon the young Mungia, he'll get serious and fight the winner of Benavidez/Andrade.

    Canelo needs to man up & defend his 168 belts he's holding to ransome. He know's Dmitry Bivol is his Daddy & he cannot beat him. Just like Floyd he's one big fraud

    Is that the standard now for the undisputed? Fun fights? You still give him the benefit of the doubt if he has FOUR cherry picks in a row.? Jesus..

    Canelo's best shot is a Charlie horse to the arms and Munguia has some thick arms so yea I would like to see this fight.

    Now that Benavides actually gets it and is fighting at least somewhat better opponents, maybe the fight gets made. From a business perspective the Benavides fight was good on paper but had potential to be bigger. Why waste a fight with him at a time where you'd be shorting yourself rather than let the talented fighter build himself up to make it a big fight in every other way than just on paper. There's a reason some of these guys are stinking rich......and why we're just fans.

    Built it up more? 3 years is not long enough? Canelo has already had 8 fights in the division and has still not fought the best opponent in the division , and he turns 34 in 6 months yet you want it to be build up more? that is why people are fed up with boxing these days.

    What happened to earning the fight? now when you earn it you go back to the end of the line while bums gets the shot before you? Christ some boxing fans are dumb.

    IF Canelo ends up fighting Benavidez, and IF he beats him, school him or knocks him out, part of the forum will claim Benavidez was just another bum, a cherry pick, a hypejob who beat no one.

    Such is Canelo's curse. No matter who he fights, it's never good enough.

    In before it happens.
