    Jose Benavidez, is he good or what?

    Here's his opponents boxrec. Lol, the guy was 22-0 but look at the records of the guys he beat to get that record.http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/633197

    I know he's had some beef with Crawford, does he stand any chance in that fight or is he another night of easy work?

    He's not a bad opponent. He's a former interim WBA champ and is still undefeated but Bud will definitely be the favorite going into the fight.

      Crawford would destroy Benavidez. Gave him quite a scare beforehand too with the whole "take this outside" thing.

        He is ready to fight for a title. His height and machismo shtick would help sell tickets in a Crawford fight. Personally I think he fights too stationary and would have trouble dealing with Crawford's slickness and counterpunching.

            You're obviously not familiar with benavidez and his neighborhood. I'll give you a hint look at his previous fights and look how many of his "fans" are wearing red....... ya i dont think he's too worried about outside the ring issues

              He was clearly shook by Crawford I heard he **** his pants after the encounter.

                  No one should be impressive from that fight that other night cuz that was a completely bs opponent as I noted the other day. 3 of his 22 opponents had a winning record. 11 of his 22 opponents had no pro wins.

                  Personally I believe Jose is done & they are just trying to cash him out. Idk if that shooting thing messed him up or what & he's on borrowed time already with his boxing career, but I know manufactured records & bs opponents when I see them & Benavidez was out for 19 months & now has two bs manufactured opponents on his roster while he's screaming out Bud all day. You don't get Bud by beating bs manufactured record opponents. If Bob is in the know with this I wouldn't be surprised if he sets up the cash out fight doe so who knows, but Jose isn't beating Bud for damn sure & I'm not sure he'll beat anyone of note for the rest of his career cuz I get the feeling his retirement maybe closer than people think.

                    Benavidez has been out for a long time and only recently got back to boxing again.

                    He should work his way up the WBO rankings and earn a title shot like everybody else.
