Canelo-GGG III feels like a damp squib.

You might as well bring up calzaghe's resume and pretend he deserves a fight more. Problem is we are talking about 2022 relevance not 2015.

Let's talk 2022, then.

Murata is a better win for GGG than every win on Benavidez's resume.

[daggum]

He has only fought 2 times in the last 3 years, and that was vs cans, is 40 and never fought at 168. You are totally out of your mind. Why do you think the vast majority of people are demanding a Benavidez fight, and nobody gives a crap about a 3rd GGG fight?

vast majority of people on here maybe but we are degenerates. casual idiots know ggg and probably still think he's good. thats the old floyd blueprint. fight older guys that casuals know but dont know that they are past it

hahahahahahaha. You need to stop talking boxing.

Hmm.... I'm not so sure......

Easily. He’s still a big name. I’d rather see Canelo fight Benavidez but in terms of name value it’s night and day.

No offence man, but there’s no point talking to you about Benavidez. You’re fanatical about him and it clouds your judgment.

GGG is still a way bigger name than Benavidez is, surely you can’t contend that.

To casuals like you he might be, but prime GGG was never even a big draw. Benavidez is very popular now and getting good exposure from the likes of Tyson.

They do their best to keep the gravy train going.

I disagree. While Canelo IS coming off that one sided loss, it was at 175 and not 168. GGG is still one of the best MWs in the world and is coming off a solid performance vs Murata. It's not RJJ/Traver III level of a fight even though GGG is not in his prime and Canelo is coming off the one sided loss.

Canelo coming off that loss at 175 is kind of like Morales vs Raheem before the Pacquiao rematch.

and Morales was shot to hell and got his ass kicked

The guy done over a million buys twice. Sold out MSG multiple times. As I said delusional.

Nobody aside from hardcore boxing fans even know who Benavidez is. You’re such a stan for Benavidez, it’s pathetic.

That was another pointless trilogy tbh.
