  • Who should Benavidez fight in December?

    I’d like to see him fight Morrell.

    Of the ranked contenders the most accomplished without being champ is Joshua Buatsi and Morrell who was a Interim champ at 168 just joined the fray.

    Lyndon Arthur, Anthony Yarde and Callum Smith sound like good options, Joe Smith Jr specially if he could cut down to 175, but like Zurdo, not sure if he can make it anymore.

    Hot Rod didn't do badly against Morrell so he should also be a candidate, but rather have the winners (both Davids) fight each other.

      The only answer is Morrell or Buatsi. No more give me fights for Benavidez, it’s time to see him challenged vs someone his size and in their prime.

        IMO David v Hot Rod and Morrell v Gvodzyk should be the card.

        inners and losers fight next.

            I’d prefer Benavidez vs Morrell and Gvodzyk vs Kalajdzic but I think you could be right. Only thing that makes me think Hot Rod won’t be the opponent is the fact it’s supposedly gonna be a PPV headliner, but not like there’s that much else out there tbf.

              Both Hot Rod and Gvodzyk did better than expected. Hot Rod might have won.

              Only thing is if David wins he may get the Bivol/Bieterbiev winner.

              I would definitely be watch this card. Let Canelo go fight the Eubanks and Minillis of the world with no one watching.

                gimme fights? His last 4 opponents have been former world champions, the last three had 2 losses between them. He has been taking tough opponents for ages. His next fight can be a show case fight to get ready for undisputed. I heard someone on youtube with contacts say its Jesse Hart.

                  Yeah that’s why I’m thinking Morrell next because I’m pretty sure Turki is gonna try and match the Beterbiev-Bivol winner with Benavidez.

                  Fair play to Benavidez for not wasting his career chasing paydays/Canelo. Far too many fighters make that mistake.

                    That’d be really disappointing. Hart hasn’t done anything in years. Last notable fight he had was the loss to Joe Smith Jr I think.
