Comments Thread For: Canelo's Trainer Likes Fights With Charlo, Golovkin - Shoots Down Benavidez

[SilverMiles]

Get a grip would ya!!! Possibly moving up 32 lbs in his next fight but yeah he's scared ****less of benavidez. Nonsense

Makuba is beyond crude, has a very leaky defence, and only has one punch of consequences in his arsenal. Canelo is going to look like Manny Pacman against Makuba landing 3 and 4 punch combinations before he can even fire one punch back in retaliation. That's why team Canelo is looking at him as a possible opponent. It's the same reason Canelo didn't want to unify the 168lbs until Benavidez was stripped and he was able to fight Avni Yildrim for the WBC belt.

They know their audience, so long as a belt is on the line it doesn’t matter to them. He will never fight the biggest threat in any of his divisions. He now wants Golovkin three years later? Charlo who has started to look like dog shhht. Nice to see this playbook still getting a pass. Makabu it is and there is like no buzz at all for this fight either.

But i bet you idolize jermall charlo even tho that guy doesn’t even wanna acknowledge that Benavidez even exists and lets David call him a puszy on live tv rofl

Wrong, I don't think Charlo is in any rush to fight Benavidez either, especially after the trouble he had with his last opponent. I also would say that Canelo wasn't that interested in fighting Charlo as well until he witnessed his last performance. Neither wants to fight David and it's pretty obvious why.

Not sure what people don't understand here. If you don't have a title or are not a mandatory that he needs to fight, he probably is not wasting his time on you. GGG may be the only one he would entertain because it would bring the most $$$

So fighting the best doesn’t matter so long as there is a scrub with a title? Got it. This is why we can’t get these young bucks to fight each other but then turn around and complain. Why should they, this guy gets a pass to cash in 30 million bucks fighting a guy who isn’t a first option sparing partner for the guys in his division. Let that sink in, the guy isn’t even in the first list of sparing partners to bring in. He’s that bad….but he has a title and folks can parade around calling Canelo the greatest thing since open scoring and then a cruiserweight champion. Despite fighting the biggest push over title holders he can. I could list ten fights he could book right now that’s a better matchup.

Reynoso would be a lot better off if he shut up.
How can you dis Benavidez for a lack of quality opponents and try to sell the Makabu fight?

[richardt]

Canelo already said he sees no point in fighting a Mexican.

[Ravensfan]

Got to give credit to Canelo for what he did at 168. With that said Beniidez is no better or worse then any of the Champs Canelo beat to unify the division.

Canelo already said he sees no point in fighting a Mexican.

Benavidez was born and raised in America and is Ecuadorian on his mothers side. The I don’t want to fight another Mexican nonsense is not a valid excuse.

Well said. And the title rationale won’t make sense if he fought charlo or ggg either because canelo isn’t going back down to 160 where they’re champions. If he fights them, it’ll be at 168 where they don’t have any belts.

Nobody cares about Canelo vs Charlo and GGG either. Reynoso needs to quit playing. People want Canelo vs Beterbiev, Bivol and Smith Jr. Personally I am intrigued of Canelo vs Makabu as well.
