Comments Thread For: David Benavidez Beats Down, Stops Demetrius Andrade in Six Rounds

[garfios]

Great to see American Lara get beat into submission.

that style of fighting is just so boring to watch

Did you know that the real Lara has been involved in two fights of the year? And when pressed he is a Pitbull.

It’s not the best fighting the best , that’s my point
Canelo is fughin done , Benny beats him by the lasting twelve rounds
Stamina is not there and will be overwhelmed
This is what you call the best vs the best
And I’m the fan girl ?
LMFAO

Stamina is something he never had. I don't see canelo as a washed fighter, he is the same fighter that fought Floyd and Lara, he will look bad against those type of fighters, and good against the yildrim's of the world. The problem he has with benavidez is, he has never face a relentless come forward type of fighter in his prime like the Arizona kid, that might play in his favor but it is going to be a war.

Canelo does not owe anybody anything at this stage of his career but the timing for a Benavidez fight is perfect. There are really no excuses why a Canelo/Benavidez fight does not happen in May. If Canelo takes a soft touch, he is helping his wallet but hurting the sport!

I bet you all Benny needs to do is throw more than him in the round and he gets the win
Easily

Started his pit bull just a little to late in his career
That being said , he only did it cause he wasn’t getting any fights and no one was watching him

I agree with most of what you said, but I think Canelo’s faded a little bit. He’s not washed up or shot, he still has the skills, but at this point I don’t think he can go to war anymore like how he did with GGG. I don’t think he has that in him anymore. Prime Canelo would’ve stopped a John Ryder level of boxer the way he had him hurt. And Canelo was trying HARD to get him out of there. Canelo couldn’t do it. Prime Canelo would’ve stopped washed up GGG too.

At a certain point and skill level, Canelo struggles with size. Benavitez is big and powerful and has shown a come forward style and imposes himself onto his opponents and breaks them down. We saw it vs Plant in a bout where Plant boxed extremely well. Benavitez didn’t get discouraged. He believed in himself and stuck to his gameplan. And last night, Benavitez barely had to work to get the win.

Canelo will struggle greatly with someone as physically dominant as Benavitez. If we go back to Canelo from as recent as 3 or 4 yrs ago vs current Benavitez, I would pick Canelo all the way. Hard to pick anyone to beat that version of Canelo. He was on another level during that time.

But now, I pick Benavitez all the way. Current Canelo doesn’t have the gas tank to last vs someone with the size and strength of Benavidez.

It’s not an outsized Charlo coming up in weight. It’s not a fringe contender level boxer John Ryder in there. Not a way past his prime GGG. We’re talking about an in his prime beast who comes charging forward. I would actually see it play out similar to Benavitez vs Plant, with Canelo fading late much like how Plant faded late. In fact, I could see Canelo winning a robbery decision too, but Benavidez would be my pick.

Well, don't be so sure, I have seen canelo been outlanded and still get the decision. Besides, ginger hits a little bit harder than anyone's benavidez has ever fought.

Canelo probably will make excuses to not fight Benavidez like when he avoided GGG in his prime

Three or four years ago he wasn't fighting elite boxers in their prime, they were either past their prime like ggg, and he definitely lost the first fight, or going through the UK tour. This benavidez kid is a different type of animal, prime for prime he would have giving anyone including canelo some trouble.

My point exactly , he does hit hard but for how long
His stamina is shot to pieces
He’ll stink up the joint
After a flurry might even need a 10 second break
The only way he gets the win is if he’s buys the judges , again
