Benavidez became overrated over night

[JakeTheBoxer]

Again, a good strong entertaining guy, but he has no defense. This dude just moves forward throwing punches, blocking with his face what pillow fisted guys like Plant, Andarde can throw.

And you guys think this will work against Canelo, or even top 175 dogs. Lol.

Benavidez is there to get hit.

[gauze]

canelo isn't going to throw the combos that andrade was, he's not that type of fighter. benavidez has a good gas tank and he takes offensive risks. whether his style will prevale or not, it's the most meaningful and interesting fight in the division and should be entertaining regardless of the outcome.

you prefer to see canelo fight who?

[elfag]

Canelo has fallen off. Its not just the Bivol fight, its consistent across his last 4 fights he hasnt looked good. he couldnt stop geriatric GGG, Ryder the Lyft driver or super welterweight jermell. he "hit" all of those guys but it didnt do a whole lot. What happens when benevidez walks through his shots?

He looked stiff as cardboard honestly the first 3 rounds. Exactly like his brother did throught the charlo fight before that but I guess he finally woke up and started moving his head and flabby body. But he's still there to get hit.

Wasn't a fan of his but he made me a believer with this performance. Beat a guy carnela didn't want to fight

All you need to beat Benavidez is a punch that will make Benavidez say "damn, I felt that; can't take too many more of those." That's it. That's all you need to beat this guy because his boxing skills are B-level. What's A-level is his stamina. I would say punch resistance and punch power, but that's because he's a weight bully.

All you need is someone who will hurt this guy with one punch. When Benavidez fights that guy, then it's game over. Maybe it's Canelo. Most likely it's Bivol and Beterbiev or someone else at light heavy.

possibly morrell. i don't think bivol is that guy. that could be an interesting fight though, clashing styles for sure. maybe benavidez's pressure will bring something out of bivol

Can Benavidez just walk through his shots?

I am not so sure. But I know that Canelo is very strong. It would take a legit cruiserweight power to hurt him.

Canelo fights a lot smarter and with more skill and precision than Andrade. Andrade fought a ****** fight although it was fun to watch. He went toe to toe with Benavidez while being outgunned.

Still, it’s not about overrating Benavidez. It’s that he beat Andrade the way he was supposed to beat him if he wanted to show that win off and call out Canelo.

It wasn’t a 12 round close decision that could’ve gone either way but was gifted to Benavidez. This was a 6 round destruction. He deaded the Andrade hype train and now is forcing the Canelo fight.

He did more than what he was supposed to do, and he made it clear who he wants in the post fight. Benavidez could’ve beaten Andrade over 12 rounds in a clear 8-4 type of fight. But instead he beat his ass and stopped him in 6 rounds.

Benny doesn’t need to throw a punch in this one
Beats Canelo on stamina alone
