Comments Thread For: Ward: Canelo's Refusal to Fight Benavidez Would Taint His Legacy

[Jab jab boom]

Ward beat some good world class fighters during the super six tournament while Canelo got fed the euro tour

Yeah these guys are trying to act as if Froch, Kessler and Abraham weren’t better opposition than Smith, Fielding, Yidilgrim or Saunders.

Ward blowing smoke up people’s ass as usual
Canelo will just be fine with or without Benny or Morrell for that matter

yeah if we all lived in another dimension.

You don't think one of the most blatant ducks in boxing history won't hurt a fighters legacy? They still talk about Bowe's duck of Lewis 30 years later. Canelo will obviously still be a hall of famer but this will be a stain on his legacy especially compared to other mexican greats. Clowns still trying to dismiss Benavidez as a random mandatory that is no big deal. Hilarious.

This might literally be the biggest most blatant duck in boxing history. Its the most indemand fight in boxing. The most lucrative. Both on the same promotion. Both available and active. David is the mandatory and long term number 1 ranked in the division. Canelo broke his contract when PBC tried to force the fight. Hes fighting lay up opponents for 2 years instead of David. It literally ticks every single box possible, and he won't fight him.

Benavidez not even a legacy fight yet not even reached his prime yet his best win is caleb plant ffs...Ward just hating as usual Benny lost his belts for being an overweight cokehead for crying out loud what legacy are this guys talking about?

Canelo’s best win at 168 was Plant. If Benavidez isn’t a legacy fight than Munguia, Berlanga mismatches sure aren’t LOL.

[messi807]

Not a fan of either guy. Both have similar legacies at 168. Nothing but a bunch of Eurobums on both guys resume. Ward is a hater for sure. If they don't have the same skin as him then he's always extra critical

Well 2 of those ‘Eurobums’ at 168 are Hall Of Famers on Ward’s resumè.
Canelo’s? Couldn’t say the same.

I guess it’s true , just can’t fix ******
I’m sure Canelo is losing sleep over some little girl like yourself saying so
Maybe you should try manning up for once instead of having to be told how when and why

Don’t even answer I have children already
Misery does love company , right ?

[messi807]

I agree, or as much as not fighting GGG tainted Wards.

Not necessarily, Ward retired #1 P4P and beat the #2 P4P.

The equivalent would be Canelo going up and beating Beterbiev after coming back from king inactivity. Which, clearly we saw he isn’t built like that against Bivol.

Canelo ain’t no Bowe
Apples and oranges
He’s got money fame and fortune
He’ll be fine
And the fact that people will talk about him for another thirty will only make him bigger

They'll let anyone in the hall of fame so it's not surprising. You probably couldn't even name any fighters on either guys resume

[messi807]

It's always funny how you guys talk **** about GGG for being a "one weight world champion" but with the same mouth you'll suck Marvin Hagler's nuts for doing the same thing.

There was no 168 division until near the end of Hagler’s career. He got the opponents he needed at 160 and all the legacy fights. 175 was the division, but Hagler was too small, even smaller than Golovkin. Please don’t mention ‘no risk’ Lil G to the Marvelous One.
