    Benevidez is not the boogie man at 168

    Don't get me wrong, good fighter with lots of potential. But the idea that no one else wants him at 168 is ludicrous. Plenty of flaws there that a good fighter would take advantage of.

    IMO Canelo would make light work of Benevidez, and if Bivol comes down from 175 he would destroy Benevidez (although I really want to see Bivol vs Beterbiev at 175

    168 is a weak division. I always say it. The real talent is at 160. Andrade. And Charlo a little less.

    175 has some talent too but not as talented as Andrade and Charlo. They do have power and size though which could make things interesting. Bivol. Beterbiev. Gvozdyk. Even Joe Smith.

    168 is garbage though.

      Benavidez is the boogie man as far as Jermall Charlo is concerned. Got him hiding under the bed and sh*t.

      Bivol is a 175-pounder and only has 17 fights. Hasn't even proven that he is the best in that weight class.

        I wish people would stop repeating this lie, he came out the other day and said he wants this fight.

        As for Bivol, he won't proven he's number 1 until he beats Beterbiev, but the dominating wins over Joe Smith and Jean Pascal look really good when you consider that Jean is now a world champ with 2 great wins over Marcus Brown and Badou Jack, and Joe Smith just beat the **** out of Eleider Alvarez, same guy that KOd Kovalev.

        But go on deluding yourself into thinking that those guys are worse than Avni Yildirim and Callum Smith. You seriously think that Benavidez resume is better than Bivol's and Charles????

          If it was that easy for Canelo he would have fought both of them already. He never even mentioned Benavidez name when Benavidez had a belt. Those are both very tough fights for Canelo. Much tougher than Sanders and he knows it. It's delusional to think he makes "light work" of either one.

                  True Benavidez is cucking him right now. Wouldn’t be surprised if he just walks into his home and takes his woman.

                    You read me wrong, I'm saying that Bivol would beat Benevidez. Not that Canelo would beat Bivol (Bivol is too big and too good for Canelo IMO, would be able to keep Canelo on the outside)
