    Lol @ this charlo being hardwr to fight then benevidez.

    The same charlo was getting clipped vs a bum montiel? 2 years off?

    If you guys understand styles, you know why canelo is fighting charlo and not benevide,.

    Charlo is a low activity counter puncher. Just the pace canelo likes to fight at.

    Shocking that this board thinks hes a harder fight for canelo. Shows me most of you have no clue what youre eatcbing3

    Mexicans don't know Charlo, casual boxing fans don't know Charlo, black people do not care about Charlo...... Canelo might as well fight Charlie Zelenoff or go after his old promoter Oscar De La Hoya.

    Charlo would be the most favourable?

    Canelo is levels above Charlo. Idk why some people ever thought Charlo was a threat to him or GGG. Entertaining fighter maybe, but by far not as polished. He is 2 levels below both

    Charlo is the easiest. Canelo will beat him by comfortable decision. He beat a guy who I think is similar in Danny Jacobs. Rangy power puncher, but I think you need more than one shot to beat Canelo. If you give Charlo a punchers chance, it probably translates to 10%.

    I disagree about Benavidez. I think he does have the right style to beat Canelo as long as his chin holds up. He would definitely test Canelo's stamina. Just because Plant fought negative not to get KTFO doesn't mean Canelo would fight similar. And Canelo might simply get outworked.

    Bivol is the toughest, we don't need a rematch. Canelo has about a 1% shot, if Bivol injures himself during the fight he'll lose. Similar odds I gave Connor McGregor against Mayweather (and the same exact reason).

    Charlo, only because he's been inactive for over a 2 years!

    LOL Canelo fought Bivol with a broken wrist and almost beat him in Bivol's weight class. Now that Canelo's healed, Bivol is running for the hills. If you give Canelo a 1% chance YDKSAB. Canelo is a huge threat to Bivol's title, and Bivol and his team know it. They are ducking a Canelo rematch like the plague. If the rematch ever happens I'm going to remember what you said here and remind you how wrong you were. And that doesn't mean I'm sure Canelo would beat Bivol in a rematch. He may not, but it's always going to be a close fight. Canelo is very capable of beating Bivol, any serious boxing fan, minus the trolls, know that, but you're saying Canelo only has a 1% chance, ha! He can only beat Bivol if he gets injured? Get real.

    Bivol is great fighter but since the Canelo win, people are becoming delusional about how good he is. Yes it will take a better performance from Canelo to beat him in a rematch, but he's very capable of producing that performance and Bivol knows how good and dangerous Canelo is. But the fans are delusional, they think it would be easy work for Bivol to win again. That makes me laugh, this is why I want to see the rematch because it will be so funny seeing how wrong people are. Win lose or draw the rematch would be very fun to watch, to see if Canelo can make adjustments. Bivol and his team know how risky of a fight a rematch is, that's they they are ducking it. If Bivol had any balls he would take the rematch and prove how much better he is than Canelo. It's a great fight, and I would love to see it, but Bivol and his team don't want it. There's a reason for that. He's scared of what would happen in a rematch at 175.

    As far as Benavidez, I agree with you there, Benavidez is capable of just outworking Canelo and winning a decision. I could see that. It's a risky fight for Canelo, but it's not a fight that's going anywhere. Benavidez is a young guy, and Canelo has to be careful of a passing of the torch scenario there. I think Canelo respects the Charlos more than Benavidez, they have always showed him respect and I think he wants to give Jermall Charlo the opportunity before he gives Benavidez the opportunity. Not only is it a bigger fight, but Charlo is more experienced than Benavidez and is closer to his age.

    I think Canelo has so much respect for the Charlos that he would be interested in fighting them both one after the other. First Jermall and then Jermell. What if Canelo fights Jermall first, and if he wins, then give Jermell a shot. Jermell has been calling out Canelo for longer than Jermall has, but Jermall has always made more sense because he's the bigger fighter, and he's still undefeated. But Jermell is more explosive and arguably a more dangerous opponent. I think it would be epic if Canelo fought both Charlos, gave them both an opportunity at Undisputed. Then maybe Bivol will have grown some balls by then. Or maybe by then the WBC will allow him to challenge for the WBC Title.

    Well, you can't argue with that.
