[MulaKO]

yes, but im not the one making claims that canelo is gonna put a beating on bena so bad!! YOU said bena will put a beating on canelo so bad!! so im just letting you know that bena hasnt put a beating on anyone since 2017!!

I guess you haven’t seen many of his fights
Putting a beating on someone doesn’t necessarily mean Ko
And if I were to bet I would take Benny by wide decision and possibly by late ko cause this version of Canelo has stamina problems and it’s a point that I think benefits Benny’s style
Thinking he’ll beat Canelo
like he did Morrell

you can say he fought past prime fighters, etc... why isnt anyone else doing the same then to get to where canelo is at if it was that easy? let's break down canelo's resume..

im only going to mention the names that are worth mentioning. mosley, floyd, cotto, GGG (3x), kovalev (2x), bivol. that's just to name a few...

now let's look at what Benavidez has done? there's not a single name on his resume that is worth mentioning. Plant? who canelo already destroyed.... see this is what i am talking about... fans are quick to call a fighter a duck but look at the other fighter's resume who they are accusing canelo of ducking! LOL.

mosley? come on now he was 0-3-1 in his 4 fights before canelo, unranked at 154, was 40 years old, etc...thats not worth mentioning at all. that was the definition of a cherry pick but you can see why guys like canelo do it because people just see the name and think oh thats a legit fight, except it wasnt. it would be like benavidez fighting roy jones jr or something. big name! no...

and no one is saying benavidez has a resume equal to canelo, but he clearly had the best resume of anyone at 168 when canelo ducked him, and now he has the best resume at 175 besides bivol and beterbiev.

accuse canelo of ducking? he ducked and he ducked hard. are you saying he didnt? benavidez was literally #1 in the ring rankings for 4 years and canelo never fought him but he fought guys like yildram, charlo moving up 2 divisions, ryder, scull, etc...he also said he needed 200 million dollars to fight him aka he wont fight him since he knew that wouldnt happen, he also told benavidez to beat plant to get the fight, benavidez beat plant...he didnt fight him. canelo aint telling scull to beat plant now is he? i dont think you can get a clearer case of a duck. well maybe canelo-ggg when canelo dropped the belt, invented his own divisoin to hide from ggg, etc...they are pretty close.

do you really think its so hard to think fighters are scared of other fighters? canelo knew benavidez was too tough for him otherwise he would have fought him. he coudlnt wait for him to turn older like he did with ggg so he simply never fought him. of course this would make him look bad if he simply said im scared but since hes a narassist and its essentially his job to promote himself as some kind of top boxer but the truth is he didnt want to find out if he was the top boxer because people like you give him a pass for fighting a lot of good fights in the past which is another way of saying hes just coasting off his name, its akin to jurassic park 6 or whatever coming out, its going to suck but they can make money off of it cause some of the other ones were good, canelo is doing the same thing but in boxing.

[Slip jab]

Naoya is the real Monster. Stop calling D.Benavidez “Mexican monster “. It’s lame and cringe. Especially because Inoue created the name and reputation first

[MulaKO]

As long as you have enablers Canelo will demand easy pickings and get his way. There is no better example than 47, each and ever individual he picks including GOP elected officials not named Musk, will kiss the felon’s arse.

Turki is just another in a long list of Canelo enablers.
But, you have options, there are 2 things you can do… (a) is not pay to watch the garbage he’s pushing, or (b) watch for free on ******ing platforms. Canelo’s PPV numbers have been dropping consistently. Even his former Mex fans are calling him out. You have the power on your remote. Don’t buy what they’re selling. This way, it may be possible to cut out the pork fat.

So might as well stop watching all together cause 3/4 of boxers are doing what your stating

[-Kev-]

Inoue vs who? What’s with these opponents lately? I’m not watching that sh-t lol.

[Elheath]

Whatever it is, just make it happen fast enough so another match can be put in late summer before December Saudi.

Canelo didn't fight Kovalev 2 times. Why have you written that in a few of your posts here?

Canelo fought a well past prime Kovalev who had previously been dummied by a few different fighters...AND he made sure that Kovalev had a very short period of time to recover from his brutal fight with Yarde..., the fight he was stumbling all over the ring.

The jury is still out on this Saudi experiment. How long can you sustain paying for mismatches or paying fighters far more than their fair market value (Canelo, Fury, Joshua, Crawford, Wilder, Miller) before Turki wakes up and realizes many of the matches he’s making are of little interest to boxing fans, Canelo v Skull, Canelo v Crawford, before Turki wakes up and figures out that he’s hurting the sport paying these undeserving divas far more than their worth?

I seriously question the money he’s paying Canelo, Crawford, Haney, Shakur, and HW’s like Miller, Joshua, Fury, and Wilder( all of whom are washed up and just in it for the money).

Canelo v Skull.. what a ridiculous fight. If Turki thinks Canelo fighting Skull instead of Canelo v Benny or Morrell is of any interest to boxing fans, he’s absolutely delusional.

Inoue v Alan Picasso Romero… Romero fights exclusively in Mexico where US fighters go to get sure wins. Junto is the fight fans want. This is yet another mismatch which make no sense.

Garcia and Haney fighting different opponents to set up a Garcia v Haney rematch…. Here again both opponents for Garcia and Haney are mismatches. Why in the world would Turki waste money on this garbage is beyond logic. a complete waste of money. Not to mention that the Saudi’s have Crawford and Shakur on standby waiting for their money grab.

How long can Turki sustain making and ridiculously paying for many of his mismatches? How long can he afford to allow Warren and Hearn to sit on the couch while he does all the heavy lifting? Obviously he’s learned nothing from the demise of HBO and Showtime.

Turki just seems to be driven more by his ego than by being an astute businessman. If Turki was the CEO of a public company for example, shareholders would revolt and give him his walking papers because he would be on the verge bankrupting the company with his foolish mismatches. His balance sheet would be as red as the Red Sea.

Turki is funded by the richest man in the world, Bin-Salman, and their goal is not profitability, but exposure for political purposes...

Nobody else does it, because few have the opportunity. Canelo had GBP promoting him and he was the cash cow. He had the best promotion and group behind him. They did a masterful job managing his career, and if thats the criteria you want to use to evaluate (career management) then he is an ATG. But most simply dont have that opportunity. That being written, all those names you claimed were worth mentioning, save for Bivol, were 35 or older when he fought them; thats the point.

My favorite fighter right now is Bam Rodriguez, he lucked his way into his first big fight, but a lot of people have accused him of doing the same. Difference is, he is still young and can go on and fight big names while in their prime. If he ends up marinating them, then unfortunately he will deserve the same criticism

disagree.. fighters today dont wanna put in the work... they just wanna fight the champion right away!! instead of bena asking for a canelo payday, why dont he start calling out bivol??? you know the guy who beat canelo... why?? because bena want that canelo pay day!! win or lose, he's gonna get paid well fighting canelo... at least be honest about it!!!
