    Benny is not special
    This is why his fan(s) won't give his resume a rating
    If he’s a chump, why doesn’t Canelo fight him? Alvarez has been on a chump tour for the last few years

      You have to figure it too, the way the landscape of the entire world or economy is, so too does that trickle down to boxing. Organizations are looking for maximum returns now and whatever they can to get it. If they have a cash cow, it's most important to take the most low risk/high reward type fights. Not saying that Crawford isn't entirely low risk, though I'm pretty sure they picked him with good reason. They're expecting in no way to lose this fight.

        Benny's best day was almost $7 vs DooDoo
        Berlanga made $10 vs Sheeraz

        Scull
        Berlanga
        Munguia
        Charla
        Ryder

        Benny's last 5 -
        Morrell
        Gvoz
        DooDoo

          The reluctance of giving Benny's resume a rating says plenty

          It's one of the top 5 weakest resume in the sport.

            Why is this so difficult

            I love ridiculous hypotheticals so let's try a different angle, shall we?
            If Ryder, Munguia, Charlo, Scull and Berlanga never existed, who would Canelo fight?
            Why is this so difficult?

              The chump who is ducking Benavides is Canelo
