    I think he has the tools to outbox Benavidez, but will he do that? In the end I agree he isn't a masterful performer, but he sure is entertaining!

    Benavidez is not a messiah. But he's a tough, young, hard-punching, aggressive fighter who won't fight like Bambi in headlights... and will give Canelo something to think about as he comes forward.

    Canelo's been blessed with ultra careful matchmaking, cherry picking at the higher weights, and all the comforts that are too many to enumerate and why beat on a dead horse.

    He (Benavidez) may well lose to Canelo... who knows. Canelo seems to have found his ideal weight (16, where he can safely feed off the Yildirims of the world and only venture above or below 168 to pick off lame zebras.

    But at least Benavidez will provide a real test... not a sacrificial lamb as the others have been.

    Feels a bit like a screw job to keep Benavidez distracted. He already won an official wbc eliminator last month and at this point no doubt he will brutalize Uzcategui. Far be it from a stand up guy like Sulaiman to hope Benavidez somehow slips in proper motivation for another 'non big' opponent match up . It's on Benavidez to finish the year nose clean and showing top form. He can't go backwards from all the talk he did about beating Canelo on the same night and saying he'd knock him out etc. Papa Sulaiman just stalling him out..

    why didn't david go after callum or billy joe since super middle is so safe to feed off? who has david fought? nobody

    he just has a very weak record at this stage. if super middle contained the yildirims of the world as you say i would have thought one of these undefeated fighters would have been able to start cleaning the division out. instead canelo is the one doing it while the others sing mr bigs next to be with you

    Yeah, Benavidez's record is not all that. To be fair, he's still young and rising. Time will tell, really. There's absolutely no reason in the world that these two (David and Canelo) shouldn't get together. Based on past history, though. I tend to believe Canelo and the ever-protecting WBC will find a way to postpone that until there is a "crack in the armor" of some sort.

    Not saying Canelo isn't good or improving. But all we've had throughout his career are carefully picked opponents, with all the chips stacked in Canelo's favor. This Saunders guy is just another sacrificial lamb who couldn't punch his way out of a wet paper bag. Save for a precious few credible, unhampered opponents, like Jacobs... they've all been cherry-picked. Golovkin was credible, but got robbed. Callum was thought to be a threat... and gave probably the worst, piss-poor performance of his career.

    Canelo is finally at his weight (or so we are led to believe). He won't go up for Beterbiev, nor down for Charlo. So great. Stay at 168. But don't put off Benavidez for too long.

    there has already been cracks shown in david. so is it a precious few credible opponents or they've all been cherry picked? can't be both. callum was one of the three guys you listed that you wanted canelo to face. artur is at light heavy he should be targeting dmitry. i think canelo ices artur right now but you'll be able to use the age excuse if the fight happens. jermall is at middle & could find work with demetrius or gennady. canelo could unify super middle within a year. no many others are following suit. i'd like to see canelo fight david but at this stage it would be an easy fight for canelo & then you would be talking about david in the same way you are talking about callum

    Uhh... hence the sentence beginning with "Save for..."

    English is my second language, but sometimes I have to wonder about some for whom it's the first language.
