    Benavidez should stay at cruiserweight if he can beat Ramirez

    I wolud love to see him fighting Bivol at 175 but moving down to light heavy may not be a great idea.

    Cruiserweight is historicaly a dead division but Opetaia - Benavidez would ve a good fight. If Bivol ir Beterbiev joins the party, things would ve even bettter.

    Yeah, 25lbs is a rough cut back down to 175 and if he is a champion why not stay there, besides Fat Dave can just be fat and eat whatever he wants in that case.

      When you listen to Fat Dave interviews his dream is to fight for 175 undisputed

      Parker’s Cousin Buff Guy Jai would MOP Fat Dave wide like Top Soviet Bivol did Saul Santos

      Spray_resistant we’ll see if Fat Dave can still make 175 and remain functional

      he was a walking 205 at 175 and has confirmed adding muscle for cruiser

      New walking 210

      it’d be a 35 pound cut back to 175

      and we know this guy has had a history of taco fatting it up between bouts

      Top Soviet Bivol-Buff Guy Artur trilogy in Q4

      so there’s a great chance Fat Dave stays at cruiserweight for all of 2026

      the longer he posts at cruiserweight, the harder it’ll be to 175 again

        I’ll be rolling if Fat Dave weight drains zombies himself for 175 then gets mopped by Top Soviet Bivol because of it. Another manny v Oscar

        I like Fat Dave the person, but that would be what he gets for picking on little kids at 168

          Fat Dave can't get what he wants in any division so his solution is to keep getting fatter and let the universe guide his fortune. 168 Saul Santos ducks him, 175 can't wait around forever for Top Soviet and Buff Russian to finish business, watch at Cruiser he won't be able to unify so he'll have to hit the buffet table and go to HW.

            Qutting on his stool with a black eye? I hope not but yeah its a dumb idea once you go up especially with the gap between LHW and Cruiser.

              JakeTheBoxer Fat Dave’s dad already has the excuses lined up to postpone duck Buff Guy Jai who’s high risk, lower reward

              Getting mopped by Jai lowers Fat Dave’s leverage against the 175 kings and Saul Santos

              in a twist of irony getting beat by Jai could open Saul Santos up to face Fat Dave at 175 Spray_resistant

                Is he still even worried about Saul Santos? It never going to happen, its time to just move on......she's just not interested.

                  if Parker is Buff Guy Jai’s cousin

                  we have identified Fat Dave’s long lost relative and his name is Andy Ruiz

                    It worked they opposite way for Fat Andy, he kept getting fatter and his career regressed so at some point it has diminishing returns but not for all, Jared Miller is regularly coming into fights at around 320lbs and doing ok so you need to fat and take PEDs to get maximum benefits.
