    Has been dropped once in his fight with Gavril but that's mostly it, also he's been matched quite well with tough plodders so that he can polish his skills.

    He mostly wins by walking down and unloading combos, that tells me that he hasn't faced someone too good.

    His best win was prolly Dirrell … though he hasn’t been what he used to be in quite sometime.

    He lost the first fight against Gavril. It was a robbery.

    I remember the controversy but haven't rewatched the fight in ages , most of Benavidez's fights look the same and are entertaining on first watch but I almost never rewatch his fights with the intent of studying him cuz he doesn't do any subtle stuff at all at least as of right now , just plods and unloads with some occasional counters.

    Yeah I don’t think people remember the Gavril fight and I think it’s conveniently ignored.

    I think Canelo beats him up like he did Smith

    Dirrell was outboxing him for some rounds before getting stopped.

    I wouldn't say struggle but way to easy to hit.
