Comments Thread For: David Benavidez promoter says fighter ?will not wait? for Dmitry Bivol

[SouthpawRight]

Plant fight Benavidez is a master at cutting off the ring

David eats runners up.

No he isn't

CEMENT FEET Saul did a FAR BETTER JOB at cornering Caleb whose movement ANNOYED Fat Dave

Caleb's movement even cut Fat Dave's volume down to only 36 punches per round for the first 9 out of 12 rounds

Not to mention these movers Caleb Gvozdyk Cuban Dave each won 4 rounds v Fat Dave

In terms of footwork:

1. Buff Guy Artur the Stalker
2. Cement Feet Saul Santos the Plodder
3. Fat Dave yes a cement feet plodder is butter than Dave at cutting rings off

In terms of power:

1. Buff Guy Artur
2. Saul Santos
3. Fat Dave [random limey Chelli just ko'd Cuban Dave who Fat Dave threw everything at]

Fat Dave may have faster flurries, but Top Soviet Bivol has FAR QUICKER FEET

Fights are fought with footwork it gets you in position to attack and defend

So why is Bivol ducking Benavidez?

How is he ducking Pear-Shaped David? Fat Boy can get served in September.

At this stage Bivol gets beat by Benavidez. Biev tried to box with Bivol and when Bivol kept running I mean moving away Biev got frustrated.

Benavidez has faster hands than Bivol and one thing not often mentioned about Benavidez is his sneakily good head movement. All the "Benavidez has no feet" talk ignores the obvious.

Benavidez walks guys down and beats the s h i t out of them because he sees big shots coming and he rolls with the shot or totally avoids the shots with head movement. And his hands are so fast that when guys are throwing and missing, Benavidez is immediately hitting them with hard counters.

Bivol will have early success but it will be the Plant fight all over again. Benavidez is a master at cutting off the ring and the pressure will get to Bivol inside a few rounds. Benavidez will catch him with a few big shots and Bivol will retreat totally and lose the UD or else he will get f u c k e d up.

Benavidez is only getting beat by a big puncher who is willing to trade and who is great pocket fighter IMO. David eats runners up.

Put money on the fight when it's made. Don't hide.

Yes, after looking unimpressive against The Nail who had already retired once, struggling against Morrel, and beating on an overrated 2nd tier Yarde. Why the hype?

The same Morrell who got stopped in the UK today by a late replacement.

ouch I knew someone was going to say this

Fat Dave’s 7-5 win over Cuban Dave isn’t aging great

Not aging well at all...

I’m not trying to be funny at all

Cuban Dave went from rocking Fat Dave who I think has a good chin

to being unable to hurt random white boys who Fat Dave far better than

Power isn’t supposed to become shot

Apparently Benavidez made a mess of Bivol in sparring when he was like 19.

Benavidez humbled a very talented Morrell and ruined his confidence.

You guys will see if the fight ever gets made.

based on Dave's telling of the tales

several sparring sessions where they gave each other good work

Fat Dave got the better of the final session rocked Top Soviet Bivol with a flurry

according to Fat Dave's dad it was a right hand that did it

Many Cuban boxers and baseball players lie about their age regularly. Do we really know Morrell's real age? I thought he lost to the Russian last year. I watched the fight three times.
