Canelo should have shown some respect to Boxing and either give up his belts a long time ago or passed the torch to the young upcoming guy that deserved his shot. Him claiming to be undisputed while fighting C level guys for 5 years highlighted what is wrong with Boxing.

Very interesting to have him show up if nothing else but to hype up a mega match between him and Benavidez. Otherwise, why bare the humiliation of sitting there on a Mexican event, staring at the guy the world's been clamoring for you to face, than to just turn around and walk out of the arena if David destroys Zurdo? It'll only make him look that much more like he's the one afraid.

In hearing this, I'm truly thinking this is to get Canelo up in the ring after the fight to hype up a mega match between the two and to silence the critics that have been up Canelo's ass about this fight.

[El_Mero]

Knowing damn well Ginger will make another excuse...he'll say something like "si quieres pelear, no puedes usar una mano"

hes scouting resendiz lol, not benavidez. resendiz is mediocre at best. the perfect canelo opponent

[YOU WILL LOSE]

they need real STAR power,

even if it's canelo just sitting there...or shadow boxing,that sells more

they had to stack the entire month of may because canelo is out for the first time in years.

FINALLY gets a break from 3-4 fights a year, shouldering the load of the entire sport, !!

they better provide him with a good show, !!

[YOU WILL LOSE]

and if either one calls him out, He WILL enter the ring and get in their face,

unlike when cocavidez froze up when canelo called him to the ring, thtat time !!

You know, you could be right about that just gotta make some belts vacant so he can claim to be SMW champion.
