    He did what he had to do but he showed his limitations.

    “cashing out on a PPV”

    They know the lay of the land, they’ve made their bed. They’re prize fighters, who funnily enough, fight for money.

    What the **** are you on about, you deranged fruitcake? Are you just trying to pick a fight with me? Nothing I said was remotely egregious. The thread asked whether I was impressed or not, I laid out the reasons I wasn't. Why is that so hard for you to process?

    Great performance from Benavidez. He's ready for Canelo.

    I’m attacking your lack of logic and understanding of reality.

    I don't care what the reasons are for Andrade taking the fight. I don't care if they're prize fighters. Because Andrade was a smaller fighter, who's always had an air of fragility about him, I predicted he'd be stopped with relative ease and thought this was a **** fight from the outset. Therefore I was left UNIMPRESSED, you idiot!

    “I don't care if they're prize fighters.”

    So they’re all just fighters on a screen fighting for your entertainment? Free of charge, just for you?

    Benavidez continues to impress. He is still improving and always entertaining. He is the only fighter I will consistently pay to see.

    Canelo really messed up by not fighting him a couple of years ago. He can't beat him now.

    Dude is a beast, he isn’t beating Canelo but he’s a problem for sure.

    Only in the sense that he took out the trash. He did what he was supposed to do, and for American fighters these days, that's sometimes a tall order (see Haney, Devin or Stevenson, Shakur).

    P4P Andrade is up there with the best when you're talking skill.
