Comments Thread For: Benavidez Sr: Canelo No Longer Can Face Elite Fighters, He Should Begin Golf Career!

[Jab jab boom]

David has shown a lot of talent but let see how he looks vs plant cause if he can’t stop him then there’s no way he on canelos level
plus David been campaigning at 168 way before canelo had moved up he never fight another champ there he never tried unifying

again, not Benavidez fault that the other guys avoided him, the same way Canelo has been doing.

David benevidez is far from a “skilled boxer” he literally has no defense. His defense is his offense. He’s looked great crushing pre crushed cans in his career. If he wipes out plant then he’ll have a legit scalp but the way he’s talking…if they do anything other than knock out plant in like 4 rounds then u know they’re just talking trying to get a payday fight. The way to canelo is through belts and beating other greats tho. I don’t know why no one gets this. Crying in the press he’s ducking anyone is both incorrect and it ain’t gonna get u closer to the fight u want

If you think David is not a skilled boxer, you have no clue about boxing. According to compubox he is the most accurate puncher in the whole sport of boxing. I'm pretty sure accuracy is a big skill..And thats before we get to all his other abilities like amazing combination punching..

This is just a strategy to position Canelo as old and done to prop David up as the present and future star and trying to make the public buy into it

[YOU WILL LOSE]

he sure does give himself away when he says "he can no longer...." as in, sr thinks canelo has been fighting elites for a long time.

emotional guy like that doesnt know how to hide, he let us all know

What if Benavidez loses to Plant, doe?

Let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet.

The narratives haters run with are ridiculous. He never made use of a franchise status, he's beaten more champs and unified more divisions than any active fighter. And the only "catchweight championship fights" he had were for the benefit of his opponent. Canelo was champ yet moved down to Floyd's catchweight to defend his own belts. Cotto was the champ in their fight and dictated the weight, and fought Khan at 155 because it would have been preferable to bringing him to the full 160 division like hypocrite team GGG. But all the 13 titles he won from 154-175 were at the full division limit. Note: he's the only fighter in history to both unify alphabet titles plus claim the Ring belt in 3 divisions and the only ex welterweight beside Hearns to become champ at 175. And currently reigning as the only 4 belt unified champ at 168. 5 of his past 6 opponents have been reigning champs. But you've got a problem with that lol?

No, that's not true, he made Hatton, with the WBC blessing go up in weight, they agreed to a catchweight of 150 that canelo didn't make, he paid a little bit of money, ala Mayweather and the farsa went on. By the way, he never won a belt a 147 like Hearns did.

Canelo may as well fight David.and take the loss. Because as it stands now, it's documented that Canelo has turned down $55 million to face Benavidez. And that's a worse legacy than losing to him in the ring could ever be

Please, can you name a great boxer in his prime that canelo has whooped?

[Oracle01]

I’m not biggest canelo fan but David literally fighting canelos leftovers lol
Plant is David’s best opponent and still hasn’t even fought him

Canelo is fighting his left overs left overs next.
