    Love it. Love this kind of stuff. Thinking outside the box. Daring to be great.

    Benavidez was starting to get labeled a bum and didn’t care for the fight anyway.

    This is ultra interesting and can’t wait!!

    You mean cherry picking another weak WC to pad his record while dodging the real killers? Business as usual but it will still make his fan boys cream.

          Canelo just cherry picks. That’s why he went to 168, he knew there was no killers there. Why not fight okolie or breidis. Cherry picker

            No, just fans falsely predicting that there will be a catchweight. They did the same when Canelo agreed to fight GGG, Jacobs, Kovalev, Callum Smith. They just love being wrong and looking dumb.
            You dont know what the hell you're talking about. The WBC announced that they would lower the cruiserweight limit to 190 last year. Do your research before coming to conclusions sir

              Any idea what kind of weight Makabu comes into the ring at?
              Hmm good question. I looked through his weights, Makabu rarely comes in at 199lbs at weigh ins. Vs Bellew he came in at 196lbs while Bellew came in at 199lbs. It appears that 196-198lbs is his normal weigh-in weight. But I can’t find anything on his fight night weights.

                Yup, they love to hate. I remember all the catchweight talk with Jacobs and Kovalev, only to be wrong in the end.

                  So you're doubling down on something that you don't know about as well. Get off canelo sack for a bit and look up how the wbc plan on changing the cruiserweight limit to 190.

                      Look at this forum….Benavidez was already starting to get called a bum.

                      Beating Benavidez would have just been another whatever win according to everyone. Just another Danny Jacobs or Callum Smith. Great fighters that get called trash after Canelo beats them.

                      I love this move much more
