Comments Thread For: David Benavidez vs. Avni Yildirim Will Be Next, Says WBC Prez

[Eff Pandas]

No excitement for this fight, but it should be a nice fan friendly KO so theres that angle I guess.

Trash fight, Eubank blasted this guy in a few rounds...he is a scrub

[Thuglife Nelo]

Haymon design.

The road leads to Benavidez vs Eubank Jr.

... Yildirim is just a joke fight...

... But David will be only 23 yo, tbh...

Again we would get a fight NO one wants, If yildrim gets his chance after February then what about others? He already lost to Dirrell so why is he getting another chance at a different champion? Anyways unification >>>> mandatory isn't it? Plant/Smith should be the obvious fights.

Same as Spence, why/how is Ugas a mandatory and ranked at number 2? Garcia is ranked at number 1 but what did he do to get that ranking? Ugas I swear fought recently and won in July? When was Garcia's last fight? The WBC really just make strange decisions sometimes.

Anyone ever seen sanctioning bodies in any other era name mandatories so quickly? Thus removing any decision making from a fighter’s manager, promoter or boxer himself? This has been happening quite frequently with many boxers lately. It’s as if the sanctioning bodies want to become a boxer’s management team.

Is it only me seeing this angle?

I like Benavidez a lot, but he should run away far from Mundo. He is all wrong for him. Smith is huge and can punch, he will put a big whooping on David at this stage in their career.
