    Benavidez or Bivol-Beter winner (where he'll get pummeled)

    Rummy’s Corner!
    Honestly the way Canelo has been coasting into his retirement tour
    He will likely fight Bud Next.

    Benavidez will fight the Beterbiev-Bivol winner

    So Canelo can breathe a sigh of relief for now.......

    I'm guessing some more softies to try and marinate a Bivol rematch or finally a Benavidez showdown assuming neither of those two above get the living daylights smacked out of them by Beterbiev between now and next May.....

    Geez, Rummy did you get any sleep last night?

    Canelo is in obvious and totally normal decline. No need for a Bivol rematch, and stay FAR away from Beterbiev. Benevidez beats him IMO.

    Fight McCumby, he's a crowd favorite and a predictable win.

    Canelo in my opinion is in low risk mode when choosing an opponent, choosing the winner of Bivol, Beterbiev is the highest risk. Therefore look for Canelo to get Bud moving up to 168,,,it is the lowest risk for him

    Beterbiev would send him to the morgue.

    Good one Rummy.

    From my perspective, I have no desire to see Alvarez fight Bivol or Beterbiev. I just can't see much different happening should he fight Bivol again and he is way too small for Beterbiev who would smash him to the canvas. In the same vein, Crawford is too small for Canelo at 168. I'm a big Bud fan and I'd love to see him win the fight but all three of these fights seem like mismatches.

    Benavidez has the least cache of all the possible opponents but he and Alvarez would be the most competitive and most enjoyable fight to watch.
