    There are some decent fights at 168 for him. Ramirez is the best option at the moment and I think he is beatable. Ramirez is pretty good but seems to be missing something that makes him really good. Then he has the winner of the 168 tournament.

    He seems so seasoned for a guy with a minimal amateur background. Has a great engine, and has shown a willingness to improve. He does need to tighten his defense but I like what I see.

    Hard to believe just 15 ama bouts. He has some gaps to work on over 24 rnds with Gavril, got clipped on the ropes a couple times and when Gavril opened rounds shooting a hard constant jab Benavides closed down a bit and started reacting second. But that varied arsenal, talk about gears on an uppercut, and matter of fact poise and confidence stood out. He's definitely a kid who knows he belongs in the room. For all the talk of Eubanks Jr off a loss on the same day I'd pick Benavidez to take that one.

    His father is a very underrated trainer, his brother is also a former undefeated champ. I think he beats Ramirez.

    Hearing it was coke rather than PEDs.
