    Default Canelo really does not want to fight Benavidez!

    LOL... and it should be obvious to anyone who even casually watches this sport. I think when Canelo fought Bivol he REALLY didn't know how good Bivol was. Maybe his arrogance got the better of him and dismissed Bivol's clear boxing ability. If he had known truly how good Bivol was he would not have taken that fight.

    Now we get to see Canelo run from Benavidez... It is really pathetic, considering you people call him one of the best in the world.

    why did canelo offer the same terms for a rematch with dmitry at light heavy if he would have never taken the fight? dmitry turned down the rematch offer for the same terms

    david b chose to give up his wbc interim belt & not try to force a mandatory shot & instead remain at light heavy

    Come on now.
    1. Why should Bivol take a rematch after he won the first fight for the same money? i.e. a fraction of Canelo’s purse (despite losing the 1st fight)
    2. Benavidez moved up because he was tired of waiting for Canelo. Let’s be honest, the fight has been there for a LONG TIME. If Canelo wanted it, it could’ve happened……….but clearly he never wanted it.
    I know this is how it is nowadays , and you might churn out other similar examples, but it doesn’t make it right.
    I get it from Canelo, he doesn’t want to throw his legacy away, he’s not getting any younger, why should he take the risk?
    Well, that’s fine , good luck to him . BUT , in the future, when his career is looked at in the “all time” debates, he’s not gonna be anywhere in the shake up because he avoided Benavidez.

    1, did dmitry's team make an offer for the rematch? he wanted to fight at super middle, did his team make an offer to canelo? canelo offered the same terms, still good money & another high profile fight, wasn't that better than a years activity & then fighting lyndon arthur?

    2, did canelo make david b lose his belt twice? if he had of been disciplined he still would have had a belt when canelo officially moved back to super middle. the fight has been there for a long time & if canelo wanted to give david b the opportunity he could have, maybe canelo didn't want to give david b a payday

    i've never said it is right
    do you think the first dmitry fight & then offering a rematch is a bigger risk than david b?
    canelo didn't offer david b a fight, he also never offered a fight to david morrell & william scull who were both ahead of david b in the rotation, he was never mandated to do so, until william scull recenty. when david b just recently had the chance to keep his wbc interim belt & try to force a mandatory fight he chose to remain at light heavy. canelo will be a first ballot hall of famer & he'll leave the debating to fans like us in the future

    That's been very apparent for some time now. All the clean up and Canelo nose whipping will follow him after his retirement and Benavidez will be the glaring asterisk on Canelos's story. I'm in a weird place with Canelo right now though. The whole Turki spat and having him promote the ufc and directly against boxing and the fighters on the Canelo card, I don't like that. That doesn't speak "savior of boxing" to me. The guy has no long term vision. The Sept card is an abysmal card for sure. Soft touch cherry pick for Canelo but I don't fault him at all for the Crawford carnival fight falling apart. And I'm glad it did for both of their sakes. But yeh, Canelo no hablo David Benavidez. He hasn't wanted or taken an equal dangerous serious threat since Bivol.

    1.answering a question with a question doesn’t cut it.
    2. More questions , but not addressing the point.
    If 2 points are made, they have to be answered and addressed before you can start asking questions that you expect to be answered.

    1, i can only give my opinion. dmitry should have taken the offer from canelo for the same terms because it was the only offer (therefore the best offer), it was still good money for dmitry & another high profile fight, it was better than remaining inactive for over a year to end up fighting lyndon arthur

    2, addressed the point, david b was not disciplined & lost his belt twice, if not for his own actions he would have still held a belt when canelo officially moved back to super middle. the fight was there if canelo wanted it, maybe canelo didn't want to give a payday to david b, just like he didn't give a payday to david morrell or william scull who were both ahead of david b in the mandatory rotation

    unfortunately you & i are not debating, i am giving you questions to ask before making your points. i don't expect anything from you

    Yep.

    "Pathetic" is the applicable word.

    In some more obvious news Usyk is the best heavyweight in the world, Wilder is shot, Bivol v Beterbiev is for the best light heavyweight in the division, Inoue is an exciting power puncher.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
