Question regarding Jose Benavidez

[chiguy91]

he already left roach, and had a fight since then. but the funny thing is, his first fight without roach led to a decision. with roach, he was 9(9)-0, now he is 10(9)-0. i mean you can't knock em all out, but he did have some difficulty in the fight. i think he is okay for now, maybe when we snatches a major title belt, and then has to fight off top opposition, then he might need that kind of coach. i think he'll be okay with his dad in his corner for now, who knows, maybe by the time he captures 'elite' fighter status, roach will have time for him again....he is only 18 too, he has plenty of years to learn and develop as a fighter.

Nacho would be great for Jose

I expect a showdown between benavidez and rios in the next couple
of years

lol the earliest that would ever happen is like 2015.

It's a wise move if he can't get any quality work with Freddie.

The one thing that hurts is that he won't get the quality sparring that he could get at the Wild Card.

But, everybody says, so and so should go to Freddie. But, if Freddie doesn't have anytime for you then what good is he to you?

And, should he have a World class trainer? Maybe, but what's considered being a World class trainer? Gabriel Sarmiento isn't really known but is a World class trainer? He does train Martinez and Matthysse.

So I don't know what criteria is there to be consider as a World class trainer. But, I think his dad is training him right? I might be mistaken though but I think I read that he was somewhere. And, if that's the case then that's no good. And, he should get another trainer...Who? I don't know, I like Goosen, Garcia, Hunter, even Nacho.

yeah i believe thats their gripe with Freddie, he's too busy and cannot commit as a full time trainer

i guess i emphasized too much by saying "world class trainer", maybe like legit or top trainers out there like Garcia or Nacho

Naazim could be one, or Rudy Perez
