Boxing is fully in exhibition mode.

That's not a credible fight.

Eubank Jr should demand the rematch at 168 or a catchweight. He looked horrible at 160.

Benn has nowhere else to go really, Eubank Jr holds the cards. If Benn won’t budge on 160, I’d take a tuneup at 168 then cash out against Canelo.

If by close they mean it's never going to happen, then yes , he's very close to fighting Canelo. I'm just as close to be honest.

Jnr is at it again

[MulaKO]

Another farce that will shoved down our throats

[VislorTurlough]

Should tainted beef bro lose to Crawford, a highlight reel KTFO over this guy could repair his marketability

[Lefty0616]

This is worse than the attempt to depict Amir Khan as a worthy opponent for Floyd Mayweather back in the day. The comedy/hustle has to stop!!!

Carnela is The most privileged hypejob of all time. Not even close. ****ing amazing.

[STREET CLEANER]

close as hes ever been?

amazingly both golovkin and canelo have both made offers to the twat in the past and both turned down

i really dont know how this guy is in the running for any big fights, literally off his name must surely be

perfect opponent for canelo tho just perfect

He is popular and represents the easy UK money. Canelo will take this fight if he is successful with Bud. Canelo has said that at this point of his career he doesn't see why he has to fight Benavides, the fight the everyone wants.
