    I'm not a fan of Mexican style at all but paid to watch all of his fights from Gvozdyk onwards

    he boxes and defends well enough combined with the combo of hand speed and size
    More fan of the Hug (clinch) and run, called it sweet science. Where are the Afros to Challenge Bena?

      I think the fact that he's a southpaw poses a bigger problem but still expect Benavidez to get a CLEAR points victory due to his superior work rate and relentless pressure (which always helps with the judges).
      would favor Fat Gilbert if he was fast

      dude's back foot boxing footwork works but it SLOW

      Fat Dave has the better defense. idk who has the better chin

      will enjoy the highly competitive 6-6 decision

      Afros Run & Shoot are in the lighter weights

      go all the way down to 154 to find the closest thing to an elite slick black guy Jaron

      Vergil-Jaron will be good clash of styles. Mexican Pressure vs Afro Elegance

      Fat Dave will have to settle for facing Top Soviet Bivol down the line. That boxer is the closest thing to the run & shoot of Afros

      Fat Gilbert who can box on the back foot will offer valuable experience for Fat Dave

        Elite Boots hasn't fought no one. Madrimov is with Matchroom, should have been an easy fight to make.

            Absolutely NO way the fight is that close...I expect Benavidez to win comfortably on the scorecards i.e. 8-4 because his relentless pressure and high volume punching will sway the judges like it always does.

            Ramirez is a good fighter but DOESN'T have the power to keep him at bay plus he's as slow as molasses as you already pointed out.

              How much money is he making in the drivers seat? It's almost like he says sh/t just make himself feel important
