    Nelo might be making people think Benny is so dangerous, that he is only willing to step in ring for 150 million? But more likely that people demanding it so much, he will milk it. Supply and demand I guess

      "Clen-stachios", for that all day performance. By Alvarez Promotions. Get the good stuff for those championship performances.

      NGL, it's pretty much impossible to defend Canelo these days. Was willing to give him a pass before and see what he did but...

        people will claim they won but even if they did it was still close and nothing like all the hype claimed it would be

        I wouldn't be surpised if Benavidez steps in with Canelo and gets his ass handed to him
        Ward and Floyd were the betting favorites in those fights and GGG was a slight favorite.

          They don't like duckers and fraudsters.. only fighters who will fight the best.
          Canelo is being a ***** about this but comparing him to Tank is crazy, Canelo is much more popular/recognised and actually fought good competition Tank is just a fruad.

            i had kovalev, pac, and ggg winning all those fights so thats a strange argument. i think that shows just how powerful a-side power can be in boxing more than anything. canelo, floyd, and ward all fought not to get knocked out basically. when you know you are going to get the decision you can do very little and if you stay upright the fight is yours. its a huge advantage to know that. you dont have to take as many risks and they clearly didnt. its a run out the clock type of strategy. all the onus is on the opponent to like you said kill, overwhelm, run through, and when they dont...i guess the "boxer" won. its pretty hard to dominate top tier talent and anyone who thinks that would happen doesnt seem to follow boxing? ward, floyd, and canelo were all proven guys. i could see a guy like tank being dominated since hes largely unproven but not these guys. also ggg and pac were pretty old so they definitely werent at their best which is the whole point of ducking. then when they do finally fight "oh de didnt kill him" yeah cause they werent prime anymore. im not sure canelo can wait out benavidez though.

              No he is pricing himself out just like he did before with Bivol when he offered him the same terms for the rematch because he knew he'd get his ass kicked again. A leopard never changes its spots

                Time to reclaim your dignity canelo fans. He’s left you ballless with no way to defend him.

                  too late benny, its been marinated or else kicked down the path forever, a-siders often duck the perceived hardest fights because they can & the other option for them is much easier on paper

                    To be clear, you had Pacquiao beating Floyd……….

                      Lost all credibility when you had Pac beating Floyd
