    I think Plant is more likely to drop to 160 than step up to 175.


    Joe Smith Jr and Callum Smith would also take away David's best attributes, his height and reach.

      That's exactly why I think those matchups would be interesting from a "let's see how good Benavidez really is" standpoint. I think Bivol out points him all night long. If he can't get through the two Smiths, he's not getting anywhere near Beterbiev. So those are the next litmus test if he can clean out 168 (Charlo if he ever fights again or Andrade, and Morell). We'll see if Canelo fights him or vacates.

        175 will be really interesting for Benavidez. I think Joe Smith Jr and Callum Smith would make for interesting matchups before the champions.
        smith has no chance and joe only a ko punch. Hopefully we get to see Morell jr vs benavidez or andrade.

          Joe Smith Jr can very well knock Benavidez out.


          He will be look at another guy that's 6 ft+ with even longer reach and KO power in both hands. good engine to boot

            lmao so David is getting knocked out by bums now? stfu. Benavidez will be even more of a monster at 175, and way too fast for them all.

              David got dropped on his ass by a JAB from a bum I can't even name lmfao


              David is not elusive, he gets hit. Joe Smith Jr lands on him, it's a wrap.

                He is not elusive bit he has solid defense and high boxing IQ. Plant only landed 15% of his punches.

                  he can get that Beterbiev fight if he wants it. does he want it?
                  I disagree as long as he can do it. The whole point in boxing is to fight as light as you can. Its a very hard thing to do. Its even harder fighting a long fight after sucking yourself dry. I dont think he will do it more than 2-3 more fights.

                    Plant is shorter, with less reach and only has 1 hand.

                    that's why i call him a scrub. 1 armed pillow fist with a suspect gas tank. he is a scrub of the highest order.




                    Ramirez is taller, has more reach than Benavidez and he digs in with both hands, head and body.

                      Ramirez is also slow as hell, zero head movement and is basically a heavy bag. What you think David does to to a slow plodder who stands right in front of him? He would destroy him.
