    Benavidez is bigger, faster, more powerful than Bivol and far more aggressive. Canelo chose the guy that 95% of people thought he could beat. That is obviously not choosing the toughest option. 95% of people would not pick Canelo over Benavidez. That proves my point, that Bivol was the softest option.


    95% of people are casuals. benevidez is a bum who has no discipline. Canelo would ahve already fought him if he could hold on to a belt for more than a week. Benevidez is wide open and has tons of opportunities to counter. Bivol keeps his defense tight. Bivol is a far harder nut to crack, benevidez is there to be hit.

      Bivol was/is a undefeated belt holder and the legit number 2 in the division (with many people thinking he beats Beterbiev)

      How is that a cherrypick??

        You're talking 'eye test'. Benavidez has proven nothing against a threat.

        So, we'll agree to disagree.

          Canelo would Stop Benavidez with a body shot if they fight in 2023.

            yes the eye test, which is also basically a boxing IQ test. You can't analyze you actually just make judgements in hindsight. Will see you around when Benavidez beats up Bivol. I won't say Canelo because he will never fight him and drop the WBC belt in 2023.

              Same was said about the Bully Bektemir. Then he met the ghost of Gabe Rosado, who put him to sleep.

              'eye test' is casual BS and lies all the time.

              Resume. That's what matters.

              To quote Uncle Roger : "who'd you beat and who'd that guy beat?"

                Watch the interview. Hearn literally said to Bivol's face that the only reason Canelo fought him is because there gas nothing in Bivol's last two fights that showed Bivol could do that to Canelo. Bivol agreed saying if not for his performance those last two fights Canelo would never even fight him
