    Even if Benavidez is elevated to mandatory for the WBC I believe it was reported before the Charlo fight that the WBO would be the next in line to force a mandatory fight so Munguia is most likely next with Benavidez in September.

      Even if the WBC mandatory was next, it's Canelo we're talking about here. They can't make him do shxt.

      Munguia could be decent preparation for Benavidez stylistically. I'm not even sure Munguia beats Ryder though.

        Hows that though? Alvarez just fulfilled his wbo vs Ryder.

            I think PBC is setting up the winners of Canelo vs Munguia with (David) Benavidez vs Charlo, which David discussed in a interview yesterday after the fight, for March or May. David would hype up the fight by avenging his brother with the physically larger undefeated twin of the opponent Canelo just fought. Plus stylistically, Charlo is closer to Canelo and Munguia to Benavidez, if be the perfect tune up for both.

            I hope that's the case at least.

              Mungia has done nothing to deserve this payday. Oscar has kept him away from quality opposition for years. Must be a reason for that.
              PBC doesn't have a TV deal right now. They'll likely allow Canelo to fight Munguia on DAZN and it won't count to the 3 fight deal.

                Heard they’re actually getting in bed with Prime
                Days or hours before big announcement
                Just hope Prime will push the PBC to have it’s fighters fighting more often

                  This fight would still be under the PBC banner. That means Munguia is a prep fight for Benavidez. similar to what I said about AJ. If he is going to fight Wilder, AJ should fight Eje as a tune-up.

                  You are going to get what you asked for in September and see that an A-level high guard boxer-puncher is superior to a basic come-forward oversized pressure fighter.

                  If Amazing is streaming and promoting to its' 150 million customer base, PBC and Canelo will get the most **** for the last 2 events of the contract.

                  You've been sold bring up Andrade in a shoebox was actually a legit fight. Thank you Al Haymon

                  22 rounds with Ronald Garvil (high guard boxer-puncher like Canelo. Go watch the fights.) but you are going to beat Canelo.

                    There are no superior styles just superior fighters imposing their styles on lesser ones, if not there would be no world champions of various styles.

                    I guess they will milk the casuals for this but if Canelo needs prep at this point in his career he might as well hang it up.
