Canelo didn’t get his belt until December 2020. Meanwhile Bumvidez had lost his belt for a second time. What year did he get popped for cocaine?
I read a good article on that whole saga once. It pointed to money being the cause more than anything.
He didn't like that they were forcing that fight but it was his Mando.
The biggest duck in history was when Riddick Bowe threw his WBC belt in the garbage to avoid Lennox Lewis

canelo fought yildram who was unranked instead of #1 benavidez
canelo fought saunders who was ranked #3(laughable) instead of #1 benavidez
canelo fought plant who was ranked #2 instead of #1 benavidez
canelo fought ggg who was unranked instead of #1 benavidez
canelo fought ryder who was ranked #5 instead of #1 benavidez
canelo fought charlo who was unranked instead of #1 benavidez
canelo fought munguia who was ranked #5 instead of #1 benavidez
just couldnt fit him in! too many good fights to do instead! too many more proven opponents!
Hasn't even been close to 5 years

You downplay Canelo unifying 3 belts at 168, 4 at 168, and challenging 2 champs at 175 plus other reigning champs during that span, but you expect people to be impressed by Benavidez fighting one of the guys he stopped (who David refused to fight when he was undefeated holding a title)haha. Being a distant second to Canelo in the division isn't the flex you make it out to be when he ducked all the fights to be in Canelo's shoes and maintained his status just by keeping his 0 padded. The more you break down their respective career moves the more it shows that at 168 there's the top dog Canelo and there's everybody else. And that's the pathetic about Benavidez, if he had taken the fights on the table for him and won he could have been in the driver's seat both at 168 and 175, but instead he ducked out on smoke in both divisions and continues just to beg for a payday on the side and refuses to fight anyone with upside.
everyne that canelo has fought at 168 had worse resumes than benavidez so what you are saying doesnt hold any water. he's done more than every single person he has fought there. canelo also said benavidez has to fight the top guys and then ill fight him. guess what happened? #1 benavidez beat #2 plant. STILL DIDNT FIGHT HIM! this is the definition of ducking. when you have different standards for one guy then everyone else. did he ask charlo or mungia to do that? course not. did they do that? course not. no matter what benavidez does it will never be enough and like i said hes already done far more than any single fighter cnaelo has fought at 168 so your argument is in the bin.
you are trying to explain away 5 years of ducking and its just not going to work. benavidez has a much better resume than those guys so you cant make it about resumes. thats been disproven. also canelo himself said benavidez has to fight the top guys and guess what happened? #1 benavidez beat #2 plant and still canelo refused to fight him. hes full of sh-it! a fraud! when did canelo tell munguia or charlo that they have to beat the top guys to get the fight? oh yeah he didnt and oh yeah they certainly didnt beat any top guys. you are defending a ducking coward. pathetic

When he surpassed the 5-6 years that it took for Gayweather/Pac, Beterbiev/Bivol, Dud/Spence to get made then you crying b.itches can call it a world record duck.
well its been 5 years already so thats why i made the thread
Benvidez's resume is on the same level as a Billy Joe Saunders before Canelo. That is a fair assessment.
He has done fuk all to deserve all this dick riding.
benavidez has beaten 2 top 5 opponents at 168. saunders beat 0 top 10 opponents at 168. how is that the same level? how is that fair? lying to yourself doesnt make you look credible at all.
that includes Benavidez.
why is he running away from Morell and fighting an old retired journeyman?
fight Morrell. Prime slick boxer.
He's right there too. He went back on his word. No canelo then Morrell Jr. Not this time, let me beat up another 36+ yo, they're easy prey.

Like everyone else nowadays, every fighter is guarding that 0 like it is their mom. Nobody wants to face a 50/50 opponent, they're some exceptions but you have to look througha magnafied glass to find one, and you need two in the same division.The $h1tty the opponent the better. Didn't benavidez said if canelo duck him he would fight Morrell Jr? No, he's fighting another andrade at 175.

That’s not the reason canelo doesn't want to face him, it's not about ppv or hof, he knows he is getting paid handsomely, probably his best-ever purse, the reality is that he would have to work for that check, and maybe would not be enough to take the win home. He knows there is going to be pain like never before, and you guys know that too, why you're keeping excusing this duck is beyond comprehension, is your fanaticism that deeply ingrained in your brain? That you have to avoid seeing him lose a fight, and still trying to justify why he is not fighting the guy. What kind of man would say that he doesn't fight Mexicans when benavidez was on the horizon, and once the ship arrived at his shore, he completely went back on his word and now is fighting a lesser Mexican. Do you really think he's that great when less than a dozen fans are scrambling to find an excuse to make him look decent, because he will never look great, not while having benavidez shadowing him. And I think he has a better chance of beating benavidez than the one the monster ducked, the one that still in the SMW division.

Benavidez is a historical nobody.
How many hall of fame wins?
how many ppv sold?
this is prize fighting.

Jon Jones in the UFC might have something to say about that record too. Sat out for 3 years to avoid Ngannou, came back the day he left, and fought the guy Ngannou beat with one leg and his worst skillset (wrestling) to win the belt. Now is targeting the other most recent Ngannou leftover, who hasn't fought in 3 years, or had a win in 4 years "for his resume" then wants to retire with just those two "wins" at HW. Yet he's being acclaimed by the UFC fans as the best ever to do it. Also got busted for PEDs like Canelo.
Disappointing.
