Team Benavidez Wants Zurdo’s Cruiserweight Belts At Catchweight

[SouthpawRight]

David doesn’t need catchweight he walked around at 225 while fighting at 168

anyways Bivol’s good friend Zurdo would be a great rival for Benavidez



“We were looking more more at fighting for Zurdo’s belt, but now I think we’ve got to defend [our belt] at least once or twice, maybe now we’re thinking Anthony Yarde, Callum Smith, or also do a catchweight later in a fight or two with Zurdo Ramirez and fight for all the belts. The 175 and the cruiserweight. If not we’ll fight for Zurdo’s belt. I think that’s a great fight. People want to see two Mexicans get at it.”

“We didn’t know what was gonna happen with the belts, we were trying to fight Zurdo Ramirez. I talked to Zurdo Ramirez’s manager four days ago before they announced that they gave the belt away and they wanted the fight, we wanted the fight so that was an easy fight to make so we were already in talks about doing that.”

So the idea is for Zurdo to weigh in at 175

so they can fight for David’s gift wbc belt too lol

they’re still holding out in the hopes of an Alvarez fight

Team Benavidez seem incompetent to me. Benavidez was joint WBC/WBA mandatory to the Bivol - Beterbiev winner but instead they pushed for the email WBC. Seems like they know they've burned their bridges there and are desperately looking for another 'name'.
