    Benavidez best move is to substitute for Beterbiev, beat Bivol, and make the claim that he "beat the man, who beat the man"..

    This is a perfect opportunity for Benavidez, and I hope he seizes it, forgoing this quest, for a more lucrative one.

      That would be fantastic but he's probably just started camp. Still a great call.

        Benavidez is being poorly managed,
        If it was Eddie or Bob they would take the wbc to court for his mandatory, he's done everything they've asked twice. The We Be Corrupt belt is so inconsistent it should be abolished.

            Yeah, its something fishy with Bena being put on 'standby' mode so much time. Same with Adames. If they get good step-aside money then its a good business being paid for doing nothing.

              "Calling the shots" is just a nice way of saying "ducking his number one contender".

                "If I can get the fight with Canelo, that’s the fight that everyone wants to see.

                “If the fight’s not going to happen immediately, then 175 it is."


                175 it is...

                  WBC is so blatantly in Canelo's pocket! Benavidez has only 10 days to decide, but how long have they allowed Canelo to duck his mandatory??? Benavidez should just stay at 175! It's foolish to go up, and then try to come back down! This isn't 135 to 140, this is a big jump, followed by a tough weight cut! His excellency has a bag waiting for you, for the winner of Beterbiev vs. Bivol! Take the bag! Canelo vs. Crawford, Let's Go!!!

                    i almost feel sorry for canelo everytime benny is mentioned to him, almost, but the guy is just so afraid of the him that its embarrassing really, if hes such an easy fight like his fans claim just make it and smack him around, dont be afraid, quit with this 1 zillions excuses, the best champs make these fights, however over the last long number of years its now standard what canelo is doing, it works too as fans forget & when the current bogeyman loses, its like their guy beat him too, its pretty sad actually
