Sick of this in boxing. Benavidez is the Only name that should come up. Its the best fight at this point, money wise too. As long as Benavidez beats Gvozdyk, fight on!!! Lets go Canelo. You are the face of boxing right, well “to whom much is given, much is expected”. Guys, call for only the best fights and do not mention any other names until afterwards. Mungia shoudlnt have even got his shot before Benavidez.

That’s crazy to me that Canelo has been labeled like this over one guy. The rest of the tough opposition and difficult styles and experienced top fighters he’s fought means nothing apparently. He has this reputation of apparently ducking the best fighters and always picking the easy fights. That’s not remotely close to true.
If he does fight Berlanga next, who doesn’t deserve the fight, and that would suck, i’m pretty sure he will fight Benavidez next year. And guess what, it will benefit Benavidez more. He’ll have gained more experience and Canelo will have aged a little more. And once fighters get to their 30s, they seem to age in dog years.
You all need to calm down, it will happen probably next year. It’s frustrating when the best don’t fight the best. But Canelo should get at least a little bit of leeway as he’s an aging fighter and probably can’t handle multiple tough fights in a row.Last edited by Rbs3rd; 05-11-2024, 02:49 PM.Southpaw16 likes this.

If he fights Berlanga in September but at the same time agrees to fight either Benavidez, Crawford or Mbilli next, then i am onboard. Morrel and Benavdez both have a fight lined up at 175 and wont be able to drop down in time. Berlanga is trash, I dont want him to get that Canelo payday, so only in conjunction with a elite opponent.

Another thing that I wouldn’t judge him for: retirement. Say “you know what, I’m 33 years old, I’ve got lots of wear and tear, and this Benavidez kid
looks like a killer, and this boxing stuff is dangerous. I’m going to drink tequila on the beach and become a promoter, see ya later.”

Berlanga should not even be in the conversation. He really struggles with any fighter with boxing ability. I have zero interested in that fight.

Well, if Canelo really wants to get back at Benevidez and piss him off, he should fight Morrell.
