Comments Thread For: Hearn Optimistic Canelo Fights Benavidez In 2024, Shoots Down Plant Rematch

[Silence]

I think he is going to sign a PBC deal and fight Charlo first. Benavidez get his profile win over Plant. if Spence dodges Crawford Haymon is selling him to Canelo in Arlington.

PBC bandwagon was over long time ago. Charlo is useless fight at 168. It makes sense if Canelo returns to 160 for beating Charlo and Janibek to become undisputed. That's significantly low chance. I don't even mention about BS Spence catchweight.

Charlo is 168 now is nothing more than a prep fight for Spence and Benavidez. Idiots have sold the world Crawford is trash so it's easy to sell a super fight in front of 90k in Arlington and watch Canelo beat the living _____ out of Spence. Haymon already offered him 55 million. Subtract Charlo, the other 2 are still massive.

Spence is worth more than taking another L vs Bivol. They'll have to rob Bivol for him to win the fight. No one is trying to see that when Bivol and Beterbiev should be fighting for undisputed.

They won't need to rob Bivol. Canelo should sit and watch his Jacobs performance. He can add something more. One punch Nelo is over, boxer Nelo is returning.

There is only one fighter who wanna legacy in the generation. We can't remove that desire from him via BS fights against welters.

I think the best time to fight Benavidez is at the end of 2023, after Benavidez beats Plant and maybe another top guy.

[Boricua181]

That's at least a year, and a half away (that's if they fight on 5/20240, or almost two years if they fight in 9/2024.
I'll believe that he'll fight Benavidez when I see it, and that's pretty much dependent upon them winning their future fight's until then.

[willieb24]

Even if Benavidez loses to Plant, I still see Benavidez as a good fight for Canelo with which I think Canelo would still lose. He shouldn't say Benavidez hasn't fought anybody because Yildirim, Rocky Fielding both Liam and Callum Smith hadn't fought anybody of note but he still fought those guys. He even said Plant fought no one but still fought him. So don't use that excuse.

What an insane world Canelo and Hearn live in..Benevidez doesn’t deserve a shot at Canelo but Ryder does? That is what FEAR looks like

[TheIronMike]

Canelo's future calendar:

May 2023: Ryder at 168.
September 2023: Bivol at 168 or 175.
March 2024: Plant vs Bumavidez winner.

What a great calendar. He'll create his PR in Europe, try to revenge his loss and silence Bumavidez fans. Man of challenges.

Bivol at 168 shouldn't even be a possibility and ruins the fight entirely

[Jab jab boom]

Do we really believe Canelo fights Benavidez after Bivol beats him again? Not likely. Remember, he picked Bivol over Benavidez before because other than Bivol underwhelming his 2 fights leading into the Canelo fight, he’s not a punishing fighter and hasn’t had a ko in 4 yrs. Worst case scenario is he’d out box and out work Canelo which is what happened, and will probably happen again. Benavidez will hurt Canelo and has a solid chance to stop him late. Canelo’s stamina isn’t intended to last against a bigger and stronger fighter that will be hitting him with non stop powerful combos.
