Comments Thread For: Canelo Shoots Down Marquez's Criticism Over Not Facing Benavidez

[moochi]

Imagine going into a 12 round fight with the two criteria below to keep the cash going:

1. Don't get KO'd
2. Be competitive in 6 rounds

You win!

You sound like you are either ****** or a casual. Go back and watch that fight, and you'll see that Floyd dominated him (120-107, 118-109, 119-108) like he had never been dominated before. If he was too small he shouldn't have taken the fight, but the reality is that he thought he could beat a fighter coming off a 21 month layoff. You my friend win "Donkey of the Day."

Marquez came up almost three weight classes while drinking his own urine. The fight was a catchweight that Floyd never bothered to honor and then refused to get on the scale the day of the fight. He was much bigger than Marquez, and yes, he was happy to jab, pot shot and tie up Marquez any time he got close. Nothing to brag about.

I'm mexican and I live here in México.

The hate that Canelo has in México Is a crazy thing, most of media and analists hate him.

I see how black people are defending the dirty moves of Davis AND Is crazy.

Canelo Is one of the most hated persons in México

Wtf do Black people have to do with the topic at hand? You're obsessed and it's unhealthy.

Marquez said nothing wrong and takes issue with Canelo because he represented Mexican boxing when it was more about fighting the best than making business decisions. Marquez facing pac 4 times and Barrera once, morales facing Barrera 3 times and pac 3 times while Barrera faced morales 3 times, pac twice and morales once are all more risks than Canelo’s entire career combined. He’s qualified to speak on this and it’s not hating when it’s true.

Pacquiao faced all of these people including Mayweather, DLH, Hatton, Cotto, Margarito, Mosley and so many others. Guy was one of a kind in the modern age.

Canelo goes fights Benavides and beats him they will still say it was a cherry pick.

Liam smith was the avoided, most feared fighter at 168 when Canelo fought him. After the fight, Liam suddenly became a C level fighter. Haters will always hate.

Literally, no one would say that. It is THE fight in the super middleweight division

When Canelo was starting to clean out the 168 div, Benavidez undisciplined ass lost the title for not making weight. If he still had the belt, no doubt they would’ve fought. People conveniently leave this detail out.

Damn, you don’t know the difference between Callum and Liam smith. Smh. And nobody feared Callum smith after watching him get worked by C level Ryder. That’s when Canelo was suddenly comfortable facing him. And Callum was never as feared or good as Benavidez is.

Nice try to use that line of thinking to justify Canelo ducking Benavidez.

You have the Smith brothers mixed up. How was Callum the "most feared" but you can't even get his name right?

Callum Smith literally fought nobody except a washed up George Groves and then waited around for a Canelo fight. He never even attempted to make any other real fight happen.

My bad. Can’t believe I got their name mixed up.

Canelo was “comfortable” fighting him when he became a free agent and can call his own shots. He made it clear his intentions were to become undisputed at 168 and every fight he took after was towards that. Like I said, if Benavidez was still champ, they deft would’ve fought.
