Comments Thread For: David Morrell's Handlers Stand Firm on Wanting David Benavidez Next

[joseph5620]

If Canelo isn't fighting either of these two next, then by all means Benavidez should take out Morrell if he can, or vise a versa.
The winner of these two would almost definitely be first in line to take on Canelo in September of this year, let's get it done!

Benavidez doesnt need any more fights to be in line to fight Canelo. It's long overdue and Canelo is clearly not interested athough he might fight the loser of this fight.

The loser of this might very well kick his a$$.

I would watch the crap out of this fight, no doubt. But, I want Morrell to do what Benavidez did and earn his spot. Step up to one of the upper ten; heck, even 11-15 would be okay.

I also think Morrell starches Benavidez, but he still needs to earn it.

No way Benavidez takes that fight before Canelo.

Way to risky for **** all reward.

I agree, but from what I've read on social media Canelo isn't fighting Benavidez next.
So what I'm saying is that since Morrell is calling out Benavidez, Benavidez should fight Morrell, take his title if he can, and then Canelo will have to fight him, or Morrell in September 2024.

I agree, but from what I've read on social media Canelo isn't fighting Benavidez next, I believe his next opponent is going to be Jaime Munguia in May 2024.

Canelo doesn’t have to do chit
Meaning his legacy is set and honestly , what does he gain by fighting these two so called killers
Maybe and most likely he gains another L
Munguia and maybe the other Charlo and call it a day
The original plan was two Charlo’s and then pass the torch to Spence but we all know what happened there

Nobody has earned $h1t, not fielding, yildrim, ryder, khan, nor the domestic level brits. It was and still is the easy path, that's the norm nowadays. Can you imagine Tommy Hearns or SRL ducking each other? What about Duran not wanting to fight Dejesus? Or SRR ducking Kid Gavilan. You guys are in denial. If canelo doesn't fight benavidez is a duck, and if that happens and benavidez doesn't fight Morrell Jr, he too is a duck. Just find one guy that wants to face the Cuban? Beside Agbeko’s, he already fought him. Find me one. And again, it's fear to lose their status, that's what it is, not paying your dues nor all the other bs you've mentioned. Lomachenko fought salido in his 2nd fight, what did he did to "earn" that fight, Rigondeaux won a belt in his 6th fight, how do you explain how he "earned" that ticket? In his 9th or 10th fight he was unifying the 122 division against no other than a p4p and fighter of the year nonito donaire, and wiped the floor with him, did he earned that fight?

Yet all them fighters fought each other when the money was right first. Nothing has changed since and it won’t never. What’s hard to understand?

Cool, now he just needs to earn the fight.

I knew you'd respond. You don't want your guy fighting Beterbiev either. Like all fanboys, you want your guy protected until he fights Canelo.

What is a bigger fight, Canelo or Beterbiev? and what division does Benavidez fight in again?

[dan-b]

I agree, but from what I've read on social media Canelo isn't fighting Benavidez next.
So what I'm saying is that since Morrell is calling out Benavidez, Benavidez should fight Morrell, take his title if he can, and then Canelo will have to fight him, or Morrell in September 2024.

Which means absolutely nothing.
