Comments Thread For: Jose Benavidez: I'm Great Too, I Gave Crawford a Hell of a Fight!

[Shadoww702]

I respect Crawford as a boxer, but if I'm busy and not in the mood, I'll always just google the result instead of watching him.

I bought the Postol fight and came away kind of robbed and bored. Until he gets some real competition its going to be basically one sided sparring fights.

I guess I expected more but this was a pretty boring fight

It was a disappointing fight! Benavidez was too cautious and the 12th rd. showed us why! Benavidez isn't even on Yordenis Ugas' level! I don't know how he became #1 under the WBA?

I guess Egidijus "The Mean Machine" Kavaliauskas, or Alexander Besputin, is up next? At least they'll actually come to fight! TC needs a fight with someone like Danny Garcia, or Andre Berto, before he faces Spence Jr., Thurman, or Porter! As much as I respect Bud's game, I don't think Horn and Benavidez made him any better!

Well said! Yeah Horn and B did jack sht for him.

I thought Caustio is next?? But I prefer Kava instead. Caustio is greener than fresh grass.

Danny Garcia would he a HUGE step up but hes turning gun shy for some reason and doesnt pull the trigger anymore so that could be a boring fight as well.

Benavidez is not great for lasting until the 12th. He still got KO'd and it wasn't a lucky shot. At times I was impressed by how he was catching Crawford. However, it was inconsistent and sometimes he looked like he could hardly move or throw a punch. Crawford wasn't that impressive either but the last 20 seconds leading up to the stoppage was great.

Have you seen any footage of Alexander Besputin? Russian cat, 300-15 in Amateurs, won 11 Russian Championships, only 11-0 w/ 9 KOs, but already WBA #2! He's a Top Rank WW prospect! Might be a good scrap for Crawford?

No! Ill have to find some footage of him. Still sounds like hes a few years away but Im sure hes much older than most prospects. So maybe sooner than later

Yeah, he's already 27! Started at 154, and moved down! Looks pretty solid! Managed by Egis Klimas!

Winning 10 rounds and sparking a guy younger, taller, bigger, with longer reach is impressive. All this while taking zero punishment.

He's a bum. All he fights are bums. Idek who that guy was.

31, at the prime of his life, pound for pound champ, tab as the number 1 welter by most and someone who’d beat a larger spencez Couldn’t blast a 25-1 underdog who has a bum knee.
Guess i have to much expectation coming to this fight. As i thought he’d blast my fav pacman easy as well.
Now im giving fossil pac, and floyd a 10-30% chance against him.

you're the ****** who thinks that p4p means power puncher/ko specialist. educate yourself on the sport or just go watch Pacman highlight videos.

hes a good fighter he just got beat by a better fighter. maybe people forget these are top level professional fighters
