I despise the the lengths fans go to in order to prop up 'their guy' or to discredit 'their' fighter's nemesis.
Gvozdyk is a former king at LHW (https://tbrb.org/rankings-archive, 2019) with only loss to current king Beterbiev. He's 37, which while not old for a LHW, is not young either. If Benavidez loses it wont be because he's a hype job or derailed train, or whatever Canelo bootlickers are saying. It's because Gvozdyk is a top5 fighter in a higher division.
As for all this drama, it's obvious to anyone with eyes and ears the lengths to which Canelo is going to duck Benavidez. It's so blatant and sad. He's making up absolutely lame excuses not to fight David while picking deeply flawed, unaccomplished opponents who have no business being in the ring with him. Canelo's fights are more akin to WWF than they are to a real sport.
