    Go for it. Opetaia or better yet Usyk. Benny has everybodies attention. Might as well defy gravity. Benn got 15 mil for Prograis, Usyk has to be worth multiples of that.

      I would favor both to beat Benavidez.

      Benavidez is, honestly, only a fat guy, his true division is 168 - 175.

          he was weight bullying at 168 definitely not his true division

                it’s lame

                Floyd and Zab were homies but fought anyways

                I’ve seen amateurs from the same boxing gym who train side by side everyday fight each other

                  Has he truly put on real weight yet? Hes just isn't trying to lose it anymore; and now he is in a natural state.

                  It would have to be a select group of HW's, but Gasssiev, Wardley, Usyk, Andy Ruiz, Opetaia(at HW),

                  I'm sure you saw Zurdo standing around Malik Scott all weekend and it looked like Zurdo could give him a go if he wanted. DB basically fought a HW as it was.
