    unfortunately size > speed most of the time. that's why there are weight classes.


    David will be standing right in front of Ramirez trading punches. I'll take the bigger guy with the heavier punches, whose chin held up against other LHWs

      Canelo will have a feast with Benavidez if he don't wait till father time catches up.

        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
        That's what am saying, if joe wins is by ko.

          you know Joe can also fight bully style right? watch his fight with Jesse Hart. Jesse had very quick hands but slow feet. Jesse Hart actually fights like Benavidez.


          Joe put his head on Jesse's chest and just beat him up while bullying him around the ring. David's body looks soft, he's not physically strong like Joe.

            Looks can be deceiving. I'll say that the weight could affect his performance, he would be fighting a bigger man, that he is used to, that has been fighting at the weight for a long time, then again, almost everyone is fighting at a weight below. If you can make the weight, that's your division.

              benavidez isn't strong tho. Caleb Plant was moving him when they clinched.

                    Well, he was hyped to the hills and people said Nelo was ducking him. Yet Nelo stopped plant, and Benavidez couldnt stop Nelos used goods. So Nelo not only has a better resume than Benavidez and also stopped plant when Benavidez couldnt. So maybe Nelo isnt as overated as some say.

                      he can get that Beterbiev fight if he wants it. does he want it?
