      Roy and Ward both 12-0 Canelo at 168.

      I think Toney probably beats him too.

      I think he’d possibly have beaten Calzaghe.

        So you think Benavidez skill for skill is a more talented fighter than Mikkel Kessler? Kessler is a better boxer skill for skill.

        Jean Pascal at his peak is a better fighter than Benavidez skill for skill.

        Alvarez is a great fighter, but if you really analyse his career 'Alvarez cannot be a considered a all-time great fighter in any specific weight class, what makes Alvarez great is his entire career combined'.

        Note: And Alvarez has benefited from competing in a under par Middle to Super Middle Weight era 'This is not Alvarez's fault, a fighter can only compete and fight against the fighters who are around within his era' etc.

          If we’re talking purely resume, Ward for me.

          Kessler, Froch, Abraham, Bika, Dawson, Green, Miranda, Rodriguez.

                  Yes, only thing Kessler has on him is footwork. Benavidez is more skilled than people credit him with. Hard jab, knowing how to use high guard defense, punch selection, inside fighting, punch placement are all skills.

                  The Pascal part is just ridiculous

                    If Nell beats him it would be special win as everyone calling Nell to fight him and that he's putting it off

                      what has doodoo done at SMW?
                      yea I don't get this claim

                      if Benavidez wins its elevates him massively into being a star but if Canelo wins ppl will say Benavidez was all hype

                      a win for nelo won't be worth much at all
