    both tall guys who can be skinny if they lose the muscle & can be big if they put on the muscle

    remains to be seen if benny can be effective at cruiser
    Fat Dave will be big enough for guys who go up to cruiser Fat Gilbert Top Soviet Bivol

    it's the big cruisers who can fight at heavy like Buff Guy Jai where the size could be an issue

      It is an interesting fight. But I truly have no idea how to evaluate Benavidez up to this point. A true fighter willing to add weight to fight the biggest fights? Or a front runner who is weight jumping to find select opponents to pad a record? At some point, he will fight the best in a division or he won't, and we will know.

        Get credit and a belt for fighting at cruiser against a light heavy while having the advantage of no longer having to make 175


        Lame
        What? Benavidez was literally the WBC mando but Bivol dropped that belt instead of facing him.

        Bivol claimed he was going to pursue the trilogy with Beterbiev instead but he is fighting Michael Eifert next. Lol

          David is shaped like a pear and has no business at cruiserweight. Notice he's targeting Turdo and not Opetaia. Real coward sht.

            If David was such a bad a$$, wouldn't he be targeting Opetaia instead of Turdo? No one is fooled.

              Did you read the article? Benavidez Sr says after Zurdo that Jai Opetaia could be next.

              Bivol dropped the WBC rather than fight his mando David Benavidez. Those are just the facts.

                If you believe he's fighting Opetaia next, I have some nice beachfront property in Wyoming for sale if you're interested. I know you don't think Bivol just fought Beterbiev twice, but is scared of Mr. Pear Shape. He may or may not beat Turdo. Who cares about that fight?

                  Benavidez was the WBC mando. Bivol dropped the WBC belt instead of facing him, saying “ muh Beterbiev III, doe.” Yet he’s not fighting Beterbiev next, he’s getting set to fight Michael Eifert.

                  If Benavidez fights Jai Opetaia this year you’ll send me $100. If not I’ll send you $100. Deal?

                    You're assuming he even gets past Turdo.

                      ShoulderRollBlackRobb Fat Gilbert is good for testing the waters at cruiser and has a Mexico fanbase

                      as of now this is the only arguable duck Fat Dave did. was it a duck or was he prioritizing a money fight with Saul and stardom?
