Wilfredo Benitez vs Floyd Mayweather 147lbs 12

I pick the guy who does every single thing better than the other one.

 

He'd do better than Marquez, but still poorly.

I think Canelo might actually have better defense that Benitez and he's obviously leagues ahead in counter punching.

 

Benitez @ 147 is my pick. UD

 

Benitez UD

 

Benitez would win, but they'd never fight Floyd would duck as usual.

 

I think Floyd Mayweather would likely win against Wilfredo Benitez. While Benitez had amazing natural talent, he arguably never harnessed his abilities with the same consistency or completeness that Mayweather was able to.

Benitez had a sharp, instinctive defense, but it probably wouldn't hold up as well as Mayweather’s more systematic defensive skills. Similarly, while Benitez had good counters and offensive moments, Mayweather’s precision, timing, and overall offensive arsenal were on another level.

The fight would likely start with Benitez causing Mayweather some trouble, using his unique style to create awkward moments and catch Floyd at times. However, Mayweather's ability to adapt and adjust to an opponent's rhythm would eventually shine through. Once Floyd figures out Benitez’s timing and tendencies, he'd begin to take control, dictating the engagements and landing the cleaner, more telling blows to secure a clear decision victory.

 

Probably the Zab Judah fight or the Sharmba Mitchell fight

 

welterweight? Benitez

 

Money May was simply too skilled, too smart, and too precise.

 

Me neither…but whenever I have a conversation with knowledgeable boxing fans about great counterpunchers …Wilfred Benetiz always comes up ….some fighters are just too boring to study

 

Never thought much of Benitez. Mayweather would win this but not a fight I'd be interested in.
