      It's not that there's no market for him, it's that he's beating guys he's not "suppose" to be beating. In other words, he's outboxing guys who have more invested in them. Danny Garcia was considered the 'man' at 140 and viewed as a potential Mayweather opponent and Benavidez is a rising prospect with potential star power. They brought in Herrera as a tough journeyman/stepping stone and he ended up schooling both, there was just no way he'd get the win unless he'd score a KO/TKO. It's politics, as unfair as it may be.

            Keep hearing this bull crap that Benavidez has star power I don't see it. Guy is boring with the personality of a tree stump

              I really feel for him. He was working construction and training at the same time at one point. Sad.

                I don't think he has very much star appeal, either.

                  Exactly, and this is why boxing is no longer a sport. Well for some it is, depends on your role.

                    That's too damn bad, because he's a damn good boxer. Gutsy, and will take the fight to anyone.

                    He's not like some fighters who run their mouths , get in the ring and run for their flipping lives and then run their mouth some more and demand big fights and paydays.
