Comments Thread For: David Benavidez Beats Down David Lemieux, Stops Him in Three

[Oracle01]

Your probably right. Tonight, this was probably the best Benevidaz has looked. When a fighter has fear/ respect of something, let's say of an opponent's punch, they train extra hard . Benevidaz knows he beats a Lemieux . He's not scared. Everyone knows Lemieux can crack. One wild swing can put a boxer on ***** street when your across from Lemieux. I'm saying , this was a really well prepared, well trained and mentally ready Benevidaz as we've seen to date. Does he have another level? Probably and he's got that saved for a Charlo or a Canelo. Lemieux came to fight and Benavidez demolished him. Right now, this guy absolutely destroys Canelo. This guy is too long, too tough, too versatile and way too talented for a Canelo. Who basically just plods forward winging shots. Benevidaz toys with Canelo. Nobody is afraid of Canelo anymore. Did you see the size difference ? And Lemieux is an inch taller than Canelo.

Facts. Benavidez walks Canelo down and brutally stops hims him late. Canelo thinks Bivol was tough lol...David literally comes to kill. Lemueix is a tough fighter and got melted in 3 rounds. Come on..

No one stops canelo his chin is too granite a his upper body and head movement are ridiculously good. When he employs it he'll make a mfer miss a 5 punch combo like be did at times with Bivol too who admitted that canelos headmovement is very impressive.

No. if you saw the pre fight interview, he really doesn't have a thick accent. He may be only swollen in the mouth (wouldn't be hard to see why)...or maybe his jaw is broken? I guess we will find out tomorrow.

I definitely noticed his first sentence in the post fight interview was slurred. I’m cdn, we care about our guys like everyone else. I was concerned right away. If the rest of the interview sounded like that first sentence then I’d have wanted someone on his team to have grabbed him and taken him straight to medical. Just like you said he doesn’t have a thick French Canadian accent, so it wasent that. I just hope he has a good team and the right medical assessment post fight like everyone should. These guys are brave and stubborn. Someone saying “nah he’s fine” is meme worthy.

One loss ? I've thought this about Canelo forever. I'm 63 and never seen such a hyped farce in my life. Been following boxing since 1967 . For who he is ? The supposed " face of boxing "? . The supposed P4P king? , Yes in my mind it's the biggest fraud in the history of boxing. Maybe your impressed by his management team setting him up with sure wins the last 5 yrs. I'm not. When they announced fights with Yiridrim, Amir Khan, Rocky Fielding, Callum Smith , BJ Saunders , Caleb Plant , Chavez Jr. and a totally shot LH in Kovalev , did that get you hair standing on end with anticipation ? Well sorry, it didn't for me. In the minds of many he's got 5 losses . And I'll leave it to you to figure out who he lost too. The guy is a fraud. His management team went the Mayweather route. And that is " low risk / high reward " method. Great for him. It's brilliant . But not so great for the fans. Now,are you looking forward to next match ? An outrageously long overdue Triology against Triple G ? The Triple G that is now 40 yrs old as we speak and who has never fought at 168 as a professional. Will this take you back to glory for Canelo? Listen. Think the way you want. We in other countries look at Canelo alot different than American's and Mexicans. And have so for a long long time.

Respect. you know whats up.

How is it that many are talking as if Benavidez is now a world class beast when GGG got little to no respect and even way less credit for dominating and taking out a much younger and at his natural weight Lemieux seven years ago?

Ggg didn't do it the way Benavidez did it who's not even In his prime yet at only 25

His recent string of fights have been sub par in terms of quality opponents but his wins over cotto, mosley, jacobs, GGG, even lara cant be discredited theyre all solid wins.

Benavides vs Charlo, no excuses let’s go!! No fans acting like they manage these guys, let’s demand greatness for our money.
