    Charlo vs Benavidez, who you got?

    I’ll say Jermall on points but I could actually see Charlo knocking him out.

    Hope we get this next. Interesting fight.

    Havent put much thought into it. But charlo showed a couple times that he is a frontrunner and slows down a lot in the second half while benavidez builds up the tempo until he really gets going in the second half.

    Charlo would need to really gain David's respect early on to not get drawn into deep waters.

    Add in the size factor and I would currently favour benavidez.

    i also dont really rate Charles movement. His sharp power usually keeps opponent from swarming him, but if you went through the early power it's not that difficult to close distance on him.

        I think Charlo would bust him up with the jab. He impressed with his jab vs Derevyanchenko. I’m not totally sold on Benavidez, I have 160 lb Chavez Jr vibes about him in sense he’s a big guy at the weight with fast hands but limited technical skill. Maybe Benavidez proves me wrong though… interesting fight.

          Charlo while having solid power at 160 doesn't have that KO type of power. I don't see him stopping Benavidez or ever even getting close to stopping him. He needs to be in better shape than he was this past Saturday night and will need to bring it for the entire fight as Benavidez never stops coming. I think going up to 168 would help Charlo at this point since it seems like he is having a tough time cutting down to 160.

          I can't really call this fight, gut feeling Benavidez via close decision.

                  I'd probably put my money on David as he's the bigger man. Interesting fight.
