He had a chance to fight Plant last May and force the Canelo fight, but decided to wait around and fight some scrub. He also had a chance to fight Canelo for the WBC belt, but ate his way out of it by coming in fat to the scales and getting stripped.

    Now, by beating some two week notice bum, he deserves the fight? I'll believe it more if he were to fight Bivol or Beterbiev at 175 from now until May so he and Canelo can fight in September for a belt. Canelo is in the belt collecting business, Benavidez doesn't have any and is too mentally weak to keep any.
    You know as well as I do is the only reason why Canelo has moved up two weight divisions North of David is because he knows that Benavidez would break his fucking foot off in his ass man.

    I heard that Canelo told those who are closest to him in private that quote "Benavidez was too dangerous; I cannot beat him": This roided up piece of shit is overrated. He's a fucking scared little coward.

      I’m here for the toxic hate towards Canelo - The usual duck accusations for a man who just unified a division and is going up in weight to fight a behemoth of a man at Cruiser
      Hate? What hate? Hate for what fan boy? He ain't did shit since his disputed decision victory over GGG in 2018 but unify all the titles in the weakest weight division in all of boxing which is the 168lbs weight division.

        It's very selective, I get it, a dip in the other waters but not taking on the best cruiserweight, although I think he beats Okolie and Breidis. But Makabu is below them.

        He moved up and beat Kovalev, but that was a very faded Sergey, not the one that fought Ward in the first fight. If he ventures back to light heavyweight, he has to take on Beterbiev. Bivol is also there, and Ramirez.

        I believe he will, but he knows he has time on his side. He's very young.
        He's running from David Benavidez

          This fight is basically champagne versus the next day hangover piss. No contest.

            Clock is ticking. Benavidez vs Bivol and Beterbiev.

            Canelo/Makabu is pretty much a done deal. Why keep crying about it? Canelo will more than likely go to 175 to collect belts in the fall of '22. There's more than enough time for Benavidez to fight Bivol or Beterbiev by then and collect a belt that Canelo would want. You don't think Benavidez is up to the challenge?

              They changed it bro lol...I'm not hating/arguing homeboy,I've actually grown to appreciate Canelos skill,but a spade is a spade. It's pretty evident how his career has/is being orchestrated and it's clear this is how they are going to be able to avoid Beter and Bivol. It's there for those who haven't got the wool pulled over thier eyes to see.

                It be a great fight but Benavidez brings nothing to the table except an 8ball....I'd rather he fight Mall,Beter or Bivol.

                  The WBC has approved Canelo Alvarez's request to challenge Ilunga Junior Makabu for the cruiserweight title, which would give Alvarez a title in a fifth weight class.

                  The cruiserweight limit is 200 pounds, but the WBC recently introduced an 18th weight class -- bridgerweight -- with a limit of 224 pounds. In a corresponding move, the Mexico-based organization is reducing the cruiserweight limit to 190 pounds,

                  I honestly don't know for a fact at what weight the fight will be at. If it's a full 200, I give Makabu a decent shot at winning, maybe not quite 50/50. At 190, I give him very little chance.

                    You know when you link to an article written by Mike Coppinger for ESPN and then link to an article written by Mike Coppinger for ABC that is word-for-word the same, this does not provide double the proof, just a repetition of a single source?

                    Makubu himself has said the full 200 lb limit will be in place.

                    As you say, we don't know for a fact what the weight will be, but so far the indications are that it will be at 200lb, though I absolutely wouldn't put it past Sulaiman to do this for Canelo.

                    "We are eventually looking to move it back to 190 pounds," said Sulaiman. OK...

                    "Makubu just called me. He's preparing for his defense at 200 pounds." Sounds reasonable.

                    "But... he can 190 pounds." Doh!

                      ...






                      all this childish crap about Benavidez...

                      after this fight, when Canelo moves back down to 168 to fight Benavidez... the haters will crawl up their own ass and start wanking on about Bivol

                      seen it all before LMAO
