That said, I think he would benefit from a move to LHW one day soon.
Hopefully he can fight on of the top guys at 168 before he does

Originally posted by sweeterscience View PostI may take a pistol whipping for suggesting this, but Benavidez looked like he could have been a little tighter, conditioning-wise in their first fight.
It might be that he's just young, might be his natural build. He certainly didn't run out of gas. Just looked a bit soft at the weigh in.
So I think this is about him having only been past the 6th round like 4 times & the fact this mighta been his most challenging opponent wasn't helping him conserve energy I'm positive. Not to mention the nerves/stress that might go with going this deep for the first time. I bet with experience (even the experience of the first fight) this becomes less of a problem.
Does anyone know how his camp was? Any injuries or illness?

I like Benavidez, good fighter, good power, but Gavril has a lot of pop in his gloves too and he dropped Benavidez last time. I guess I see this one as more of a coin flip fight.

I think we've kind of forgotten that Benavidez just turned 21, he still has miles and miles of development left. I think that last fight is going to teach him loads and he's going to look like a monster the 2nd time around. Benavidez by brutal mid-rds KO
