Comments Thread For: Jose Benavidez: I Don't Know How I Got a Draw, I Beat Him Every Round

[just the facts]

I thought Torres won and saw nothing from Jose that leads me to believe that he'll ever be a quality fighter.

[steeve steel]

If I were José, I wouldn't watch the fight... Because as arrogant and delusional as he might be, he may have a brief moment of lucidity and realise just how horrible his performance was. Might shatter what remains of his fragile confidence..

Yeah he would spar Manny Pacquiao when he was a teen, great amateur as well. Still, I recall him getting a gift against Mauricio Herrera (underrated and had some unfair losses) so the kid wasn’t exactly the monster they were hyping him up to be.

Yea I remember that fight. Terrible match making.

I hate judging a book by its cover and I know nothing about him and he may be the nicest guy in the world. But Jose looks like a real prick of a person.

[-Kev-]

Torres got played. Benavidez needs to rewatch the fight and see how ineffective he was.

Ya got ya ass beat, bruh

Going forward with hands down, hardly throwing punches, trying for the one punch knock out? Then having the arrogance to think you won every round?! I can tell you how you didn't win the fight. Torrez was actually trying to win and you expected a gift decision! And what a prick this chump is! Hope we don't see him again any time soon!

[supRa]

I remember years ago he was seen as a major prodigy. Sparring pros at 15 or so.

Hell yeah!
This was back in 07 watching him spar Pac and Porter down at Wild Card, back when David was a chubby kid on ESNEWS lol

Just hang em up.

He got shot because he was either buying or selling drugs (seems to be a staple in that family, sadly) and hasn't been the same since. His career's been a total bust! They're doing their best to prove he has something left but you can see it in his eyes....he's done.

He fought Herrera (and arguably lost) and got stopped by Crawford- that's a sum of his entire career. So much promise and no delivery.

Agree with everything, but it has to be said he did very well against Crawford. He got taken out late but by then you can tell his knee was gone. I was done with Crawford after that fight.

What could have been…
