Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez on David Benavidez: ?He?s accomplished nothing?

[Oregonian]

You sound foolish but that's expected of a butt-hurt "fan". If you call yourself a fan of his in the past, then how did you suddenly forget his previous fights? So, his career depends on ONE fight against a coke-head who lost his belt once due to failed rug test (*******) and lost it again on the scales?

Cry more.

Are you disagreeing with all the facts on this article?
Also, Canelo did FAIL a drug test too. Unless you don’t consider that a failed drug test.

William Scull vs fighters that won a major world title:
(no fights)

Other notable wins: Vladimir Shiskin (robbery)

David Benavidez vs fighters that won a major world title (ignoring secondary and interim belts):
W vs Anthony Dirrell TKO 9
W vs David Lemieux TKO 3
W vs Caleb Plant UD 12
W vs Demetrius Andrade RTD 6
W vs Oleksandr Gvozdyk UD 12

Other notable wins: David Morrell

Hmm, I wonder who has accomplished more?

Worst version of LeMeh
Worst version of Andrade (who was a hype job himself. Who did he beat for his title ?!?!?!)
Nelo beat Plant better
Whatever bacame of Gvoz and did he ever amount to anything ?
Dirrell's best W might be Avni......


Pitiful resume if a fight fan is being honest

[Bull Pit]

This make’s me sick to the stomach as a long time boxing fan . I can not ever remember a boxer running away from another boxer that is so obvious as Alvarez and his pathetic excuses to Avoid Benavidez. It was bad enough that Alvarez refused to unify with Andrade but Benavidez is another level . As a long time fan of Alvarez I lost respect for him when avoided Andrade but Benavidez is p!ss poor . What would Ruben Olivaries think of his countryman .

Pitiful resume if a fight fan is being honest

I wasn't comparing Benavidez's resume to Canelo's, I was comparing it to Scull's.

If accomplishments are the standard for landing a Canelo fight, what has Scull accomplished? He won a vacant belt via hometown robbery against a b-level fighter in Shishkin.

Who was Edgar Berlanga's best win? What did he do to deserve a Canelo fight?

Gvozdyk was the former WBC/TBRB/lineal light heavyweight champion of the world.

And no, Dirrell's best win was not Avni Yildirim. He knocked out Caleb Truax in one round prior to Truax becoming IBF champion and he ended Sakio Bika's WBC title reign.

You can criticize David Lemieux and Demetrius Andrade all you want but they're orders of magnitude better than anyone Berlanga or Scull beat.

The LeMeh and Andrade that Benny fought are on the Scull level. The absolute shlttiest versions....

Traux lost to every quality guy he fought. Won a vacant title to a bigger bum than him.
Gvoz beat a spent Stevenson. I guess it's worth mentioning
Dirrell > Sakio.....and ?!?!?

Benny's resume is laughable
Can you imagine if that was Nelo's resume ?!?!?!?!?!?

Andrade was undefeated. Lemieux had won five in a row and nine of his previous ten fights. Plant had one loss. Gvozdyk had one loss. Dirrell had a belt when Benavidez fought him.

Any one of those wins would be the best one on Scull's resume or Berlanga's resume. Scull's best win was a hometown robbery and Berlanga's win was against Angulo... the same Angulo that Benavidez had already stopped.

Nobody is saying that Benavidez's resume is elite. Nobody is confusing him for Usyk, Inoue, Rodriguez, Crawford, Bivol, Beterbiev, Canelo, or Teraji. What we're saying is that Canelo has been fighting clearly worse guys than Benavidez ever since the Bivol loss.

[boxingitis]

So, you admit, without Nelo's name, Benny has the shlttiest resume of anyone below HW

Probably = Unproven

Benavidez Resume is Better than Berlanga, Mungia, Ryder, ans Skull. If those guys would have fought Benavidez first and not wait on the Canelo Pay Day then he would have a better Resume..

Fact He doesn't have a great Resume
Fact Canelo, Mungia, and Berlanga DUCKED him.
2 things Can be true.

[TheProudLunatic]

Benavidez Resume is Better than Berlanga, Mungia, Ryder,

Not a single Benny fan would complain if he fought them !
They are better than 95% of everyone Benny fought.

I can't read past you using LeMeh as a credible name !!!!!!!
While trying to shame Nelo !!!!!!!!!!!!
