Its almost like the more the fans demand the fight the more canelo is pushing back onit. You cant say that benavidez hasn't done anything then fight Munguia when benavidez last two fights alone have been better names than who munguia has fought. I just don't think canelo likes the fight hes already mentioned the size difference saying benavidez will be 20lbs bigger than him in the ring etc

Everyone believes this, and is clamoring for a fight with Benny. I’ll be surprised if it doesn’t happen soon.

"Plant !''

Canela is a fraud and has no respect for the sport of boxing. As a Mexican fighter, where is the respect and pride for his family (Dad, Mom) and his country, Mexico. As a champion, all of these boxing people / world talking Shi? about you being afraid to fight Benavidez. Fight him and prove to us, Mexican's don't fuc? around.

The suppose weight issue with Benavidez, another piss poor excuse. In your early fights, you never allowed yourself to get weighted before entering the ring. We all wonder what you weighted, which was probably 25 to 30 pounds over your opponent (A. Kahn??? and others).

I'm trying to figure out what makes Benny so great....
If you have no direct answer (IE Deflecting away from Benny), you needn't bother.

Atlas as usual is a MORON

He is a 2x Super middle weight champion
Nearly as many KO's as fights
Undefeated
Beat Plant soundly
KO'd and made Andrade decide to go back to 160
Mike Tyson endorsed.

I believe this is what makes him great, in the eyes of those who see him as so.

Thank you and, with no disrespect -
How many names would you be calling me if I said Nelo beat Plant better (and 1st) ?
Paulina also ''endorses'' Benny (for what it's worth)
Not many live bodies to test that 0, eh ?
I'd rightly assume Nelo could have beaten his lineup just as easily ?

No doubt (the bold)

i think canelo is the best super middle but he has to fight and beat benavidez to stay the best
