Opetaia wastes both of them easy. I love how the Mexicans and Mexican Americans are trying to steer Zurdo away from Opetaia and for good reason.

But he does have a point. I wonder how Benavidez handles cw. Its great if he adds muscle, but will spell trouble if he just comes in with a bigger dad bod.Originally posted by Casualfanforyou View PostComment

I like David. I honestly I wish we would go back to the orginal divisions. I don't think half of these champions would be champions if we go back to the orginal divisions.Comment

He can go to cruiserweight, because he would be fighting at his more natural weight 'In the Cruiserweight Division'.
I have always compared David Benavidez to Toney Bellew 'Bellew used to fight at 175 pounds, because he wanted the acute advantage of being the big man on fight night. After years of forcing his body, to fight at an unnatural weight eventually? Toney Bellew realized that the accumulative damage he was inflicting upon himself due to using weight draining tactics, was decreasing his overall boxing game dramatically'.
Toney Bellew moved up into the Cruiserweight Division's with increased well being and overall conditioning 'Bellew produced all of his career best performances in the Cruiserweight division. Bellew became the WBC Cruiserweight Champion, and fought for the Lineal and Undisputed titles vs Oleksandr Uysk'.
Note: David Benavidez in my opinion is approaching potentially a very similar stage of his career 'But in all honesty? I am not so sure skill for skill, I don't think Benavidez is as good as Toney Bellew. Bellew to his credit had solid power, and his pure skill for skill boxing was of a very good level. This was shown in his fight vs Oleksandr Uysk, while Bellew was in that fight? He was able to compete with Uysk in a skill for skill boxing match'.
Currently David Benavidez is competing in the 175 pound division 'And the reason why he has moved up into this division, is because his weight draining tactics and the acute advantage's from those methods? Are in my opinion no longer sustainable while competing in Super Middle Weight Divisions. Weight draining tactics over the long term, have negative effects on the overall well being and conditioning of fighters'.
So, when I see this kind of talk in regards to Benavidez 'People need to really put things into perspective? Benavidez moving up into the Light Heavyweight or Cruiserweight Division's, is not quite the same as Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Junior moving up through the divisions'.
To conclude: David Benavidez at some point in his career 'Potentially may be forced to fight in the Cruiserweight Division. But the question is? What will his state of being be at that stage of his career, after many years of weight draining himself extensively. And being another one of those poster boys, for the toxic weight draining culture in this modern boxing era'.
David Benavidez is a solid fighter, but? I don't rate him as some sort of Monster fighter 'If Benavidez was not fighting in this modern era, it would if been very difficult for him to acquire the same level of reputation that he has today in boxing. Because he would of been forced to fight at his more natural weight, during boxing era's which used the Same Day Weigh In rule'.
Benavidez is definitively a World level fighter, and he has reached this level mainly by relying on being the big man on fight night 'Outside of this, I have not detected much elite level skills in his game' etc.
