      Only Benavidez should be held accountable for losing it twice, no excuse on that.
      I just think the Plant fight is perfect for both now that none of them have titles and they have a long rivalry going on. Regarding later rounds, he has shown that his stamina is great as rounds go on, I think he does just fine.
      I not worried about Benavides stamina, is him squeezing down to make weight. He is young and might have outgrown the division. They should fight since it is an easy fight to make, neither has a title and there is a lack of interesting fights since Canelo has all the titles.

      BJS looks like he is not fighting anymore, Smith went to another division and Morrell is green in the division. But knowing boxing and these guys they might fight another no hoper and keep crying that nobody want to face them.

        Forgotten for a while?? Lol you're cold man, haha!

        Smith or Bivol? But Smith and Beterbiev are going to unify apparently. Bivol? I don't think Benavidez would even get that opportunity soon if he moved up regarding rankings.
        The fight that makes the most sense is Plant. But Plant I feel is shying away.

          Man I hope it doesn't end up like that for Benavidez.
          It would suck for us Boxing fans not to see Benavidez fight Plant considering the rivalry they both have.

            Benavidez should just fight in his proper division, which is LHW

            the guy's always been a weight bully draining himself to beat up the smaller guys, same as Callum Smith

            he even lost one of his belts for his inability to make the weight anymore

            Benavidez should target one of the LHW champs, or maybe Zurdo Ramirez first to test the waters

            then maybe King Canelo will finally throw him a bone if he wins

                That would be nice too.
                Another question here is why is Plant so quiet? He needs to take the bull by the horns and get to being active.

                  Interesting point.

                  But the thing here is MANY fighters do the same, lose 30 lbs etc to fight in 'their weight'.

                    Yeah, but when you're having so much trouble making weight to the point of losing your goddamn belt on the scales

                    then that's a clear signal you've outgrown the division, and you need to move up

                      Very good point man you're right on that one.
                      Or it may be that Benavidez wasn't just as disciplined as he ought to be.
