Do people actually rate David Benavidez?

Man, I have this troll rattled. :lol1:

Benavidez is one of the youngest champions in history. Was whoopin on GGG and Pavlik since 15 Of course we rate him. What a dumb ass thread List his top 5 wins.

I thought it was just me. I am not really seeing what others do in him at all. I think the only way him vs Canelo is possibly interesting is if he is able to block Canelos punches with his face and make him work like he has others and I don't see it. Canelo is a much better counterpuncher, fast and hits a ton harder than those little guys he is walking down. Exactly this, if you actually analyse this matchup you’ll see what I’m talking about.

If you dont rate Mall Charlo very high or Benavidez very high then who the fuk are you high on? Quit being a little hating azz b1tch on these fighters. I swear boxing fans are the most fickle and stuck up POS fans of any sports fan base. You say Mall beats Charlo but funny thing is how he’s not as confident and stepping up to the Benavidez plate to build up heat for the Godnelo fight. I’m not hating at all you f***ing lunatic. Charlo is a good fighter, with solid wins over Williams and Derevyanchenko, but does that make him elite? No. As for Benavidez, he has no impressive at all on his resume. Calling him B level is perfectly accurate. You just sound like a f***ing fanboy kid, try and be realistic instead of coming out with this sort of nonsense. Mall beats Charlo? He’s fighting himself now? :lol1: Awful post…

I don’t think he will beat canelo if they ever fight but he is at least dangerous. That’s more than can be said for BJS or plant who could fight canelo 100 times and never pose the slightest threat. i don’t think anyone at 168 or below can beat canelo but the only person who is interesting really is benevidez because he’s got the size and strength to at least potentially put up a fight. huge experience gap between canelo and benevidez also but time is of the essence if that fight is ever going to happen. How much longer can benevidez make weight before he’s forced upto light heavyweight? Would be nice to see benevidez fight a few of the other competent super middle weights first but by the time that’s done canelo is getting older and probably wouldn’t risk fighting benevidez. the problem benevidez has is why would you fight him? He’s big, good, young and dangerous, and he doesn’t have a title or an especially big name. Why as a promoter would you let your fighter go in with someone like that with a high risk and a pretty low reward?

Canelo is a much better counterpuncher, fast and hits a ton harder than those little guys he is walking down. I see how he is effective but technically I just don't I think he is rather naff tbh just gets away with it fighting much smaller guys who can't punch and aren't much good to begin with. If he was doing it to decent technical fighters his own size, sign me up but all I am seeing is a great big weight bully really fighting opponents that are naturally much small and can't punch hard enough to make him truly pay so he just keeps strolling forward.

This fat slob rates him pretty highly LOL https://twitter.com/lovejoyboxing/status/1460234439418466310 Oh my god I didn't even notice he had himself on his list and he's above Fury and Usyk... Hilarious

Well he’s rated high enough that Mall Charlo is b1tching out to fight him. You rate Mall very high and Mall wants to fight Godnelo. So what a great way for him to generate heat for that fight by beating this at best B-Level bum in Benavidez who doesn’t pass your “eye test”. Even though Benavidez doesn’t pass this so call “eye test” of yours. Top fighters are reluctant to fight him. So what does that say about your “eye test” if these top fighters are refusing to fight him? I don’t rate Charlo that high. He beats Benavidez though. Benavidez doesn’t just fail the eye test too. His resume is also very questionable. What’s his best win? Anthony Dirrell? Who, for context, was coming off a contentious win over Avni Yildirim.

Doesn't matter if he is rated or not. Canelo will pay him enough to take a dive

Pick off in what way? He’ll get timed coming in, when Benavidez goes to commit Canelo will slip and counter.

He’ll try and come forward, but I just think he’ll get picked off. I don’t really see anything in Benavidez that will trouble Canelo tbh. Pick off in what way?

Tbh I'm not too impressed with Benavidez either, he's too unproven and there's too many question marks. We need to see him in there with a couple of elite opponents who are coming in to win. Yes he's clearly got some good tools, but top opponents neautralise your best tools and if you don't have more tools, you lose.

He's got better resume than Plant, TBH.

Canelo hasn’t even fought him yet and here we go destroying his future opponent. Canelo is going to fight this guy everyone has been calling a monster….which will then be transformed into a bum post Canelo fight. Canelo can’t win.

2-3rd best 168 4-6th at 175. Gotta see him vs ramiraz . gotta think who has david fought &,history of not taking career seriois vs canelo who is in prime now cleared a whole division .

I 100% rate David Benavidez as a very good fighter. I would love to see Canelo vs David Benavidez!!!

In a word, no.

Benavidez doesn't back up like the bigger fighters Canelo fought...not a very good comparison. He has much longer arms than Canelo and punches hard and fast with high volume. He's still young and still developing. Even GGG did not use his power against Canelo, I think Benavidez will and make it a hard fight for him and if Canelo waits too long to fight him time will be on Benavidez's side. I think Benavidez is just starting to come around, and the best is yet to come from him. He's a diamond in the rough, just like Canelo was when he fought Mayweather. Make no mistake about this guy...he rates. I think his father should look at bringing in someone in who can broaden and refine David's style a bit (and a nutritionist). Sometimes the father/son dynamic can be a little stifling.
