    no you are correct, although benavidez got a weiver because of how good his amatur background was, 5 time champion i believe? they let him slide at age 17.

      They made an exception for him. That's how good he is.

        He has a single, but glaring flaw. He's flat footed. He'll have trouble with any slick fighters with a similar talent level.

        Also, watch out for Sadam Ali. That kid is equally as talented as Benavidez.

              A rivarly is building already between them.They have history together.
              In the future it will be a big fight,If they both keep winning.

                    He's not even top 10 greatest Mexican boxers.
                    You're so full of **** dude. Oscar is one of the greatest hands down. Not even Morales or Barrera did what he did. Hell not even Chavez.


                    As for Benavidez, kid is growing on me like Korobov.
