    Is Canelo vs Benavidez the biggest duck ever

    If Canelo never fights David Benavidez is it the biggest duck ever considering the circumstances?

    Even in past cases, the demand wasn't this high for this much money.

    Other fights like Bowe/Lewis Joshua/Wilder failed to happen partially because of unforeseen events (Lewis getting Kod by McCall, Bowes retirement.

    Has there ever been a bigger duck than this ?

    Very close to it imo. Ginger straight up pulled a b!tch move. Jon Jones is taking a page outta Ginger's ducking ways too and using the exact same excuse.

      Who is Jon Jones ducking? This isn’t baiting.

      I don’t follow MMA closely and this is my first time hearing this. Doesn’t he essentially squash every fighter he takes on a la GSP and Silva in their primes?

          Tom Aspinal, the interim HW champ he SHOULD be fighting but like Ginger, is using the excuse that "at this point in my career, i can pick and choose who i want".

              David was the clear number 1 contender for 4 years.
              It was by far the most lucrative fight for Canelo
              The biggest fight to make in the sport almost certainly
              The most in demand opponent the fans wanted Canelo to fight.
              They were both on the same promotion.
              There was literally no obstacles to make the fight other than Canelo wanting the fight.

              I think its clearly the biggest duck in boxing history.
