    Who would win in this second round bout? Benitez who outclassed Margarito in the first round. Or Cuevas who outlasted De La Hoya in thier epic slugfest? 15 Rounds.

    I'll go for Benitez to win a decision, his jabbing and fast shooting right score points as he circles before he likely goes to the ropes and scores points. He'd have to be careful, but i think he'd win.

    benitez masterclass jabbing and gliding around the ring sharpshooting accurate right hands leaves cuevas frustrated and beaten by a unanimous decision .this is assuming benitez is motivated

    Benitez with his defensive skills and superb jab keeps Cuevas off balance and missing all night long.

    Cuevas just cant hit him and when he swings, hes peppered by sharp counter combination punches from a smiling Benitez.

    Beitez shows his full repertoi for a UD

    Wow, Benitez on form would put on a Masterclass. Always the chance Cuevas catches Benitez when he goes back to the ropes but his guard, movement, speed, and his own punches would see him through to a UD.

    Benitez outboxes him for a wide UD, I cant see Cuevas landing those wide shots against such a defensive genius, meanwhile Benitez jabs his head off

    I think if Benitez fights nothing less than the perfect fight, he can win by decision. But if Cuevas catches him flush, goodnight.

    A motivated Benitez at his best wins a wide decision over Cuevas.

    Benitez by shutout UD. Maybe even late stoppage.

    A great chance for Benitez to show off his defensive countering against Cuevas. Hes in a different class in all honesty. Wide, wide unanimous decision.

    Benitez by UD, unless he gets caught by a Pipino decapatater.
