Comments Thread For: Hearn on Canelo: Benavidez is Much Easier Than Bivol, Did You See What Canelo Did To Plant?

[thack]

I wanna se canelo - benavidez because it is the same division. Canelo will have no excuse if he loses.

That's probably another angle from 'crafty' but obvious Eddie. He's always been harping on about getting Biviol down to 168lb where he's never fought , so as you rightly say , for Canelo to lose to a natural 168lb fighter , that sets Young Edward & Canelo right back!....no excuse!

[BlackRobb]

I really hope Canelo holds off on the Bivol rematch and takes that fight with Benavidez so fans can see once and for all what happens when Red Flag encounters the real Mexican Monster. Bivol will beat Canelo again, but Benavidez is tailor-made for Canelo.

Not really. Ginger loves to rest. Benavidez will never let him rest. And I've never seen Benavidez hurt at 168.

This guy is a genius sure Bivol is a light heavy weight better boxer I agreed Canelo is much stronger hit harder than Benavidez could end the fight with one punch.

I tired if Fighters, promoters using this type of excuse when it comes to facing someone. First off, in boxing, styles make fights. If one guy beats someone, in a different style than the other guy, it doesn't automatically mean that a fight is going to play out a certain way. If the fight was made, sure Canelo would probably be the favorite, it doesn't mean he's going to win, and it all depends how Canelo is coming off that surgery and it depends what Canelo shows up, the Canelo who faced Plant would probably have a better shot of winning, now if it's the Canelo who showed up in that last GGG fight, Benavides beats that guy. Regardless, no one wants to watch Canelo fight Bivol again, those styles create a boring fight, now Canelo vs Benavides, those styles have the potential for something really good. I'm not going to defend Canelo anymore, this is the fight the people want, it's time to put up or shut up, and I'm not paying for the Ryder fight, or if he fights Bivol again, the only fight worth the money is Benavides.....

Benavidez is bigger, faster, more accurate and more powerful than Bivol, but he's easier? Cool story, fight him then.

[Get em up]

Stylistically Bivol is polar opposite of Benavidez so it's tough to say what would be easier. The obvious answer is Benavidez but with Canelo and Benavidez being pressure heavy fighters it's the fight I'd rather see as a fan. I wouldn't mind the Bivol rematch because I do think Canelo slept on Bivol and was I'll prepared but the fight fan wants to see Canelo and Benavidez **** center ring.

I don't know about that. Canelo loves to rest. Benavidez will never allow him to rest. David stops him in 9 or 10.

David couldn't even drop plant and somehow he will stop cinnabon Lol ok.

Now that would be a cool story alrite.

Plant is a defensive fighter, who is on his bike. Canelo will be standing right in front. Totally different style and fight.

I think Canelo has a much better chance with Benavidez because David is aggressive which suits Canelo down to the ground, Canelo won't have to look for him anywhere, its a shootout at short range and that suits Canelo, and I think Canelo punches harder, if Benavidez can take Canlos power he can beat him, if not he might get stopped.

Get your eyes checked, Benavidez is slower,less accurate and is a 168 pounder.Bivol is one of the 2 best lightheavyweights in the world.
