Vegas must be scared to see him in the ring with Alvarez. The thing is he's Mexican too so if he did beat Alvarez he becomes a gigantic attraction. They should learn from UFC.
Always good to see guys "grow up" immediately after so much trash talk, big respect by both. Well except Chris Colbert post fight . Was really a solid night of fights.

Alvarez has left no doubt he's just about milking the teet after Bivol. We always hear about a huge fight over "marinading" but in the case of Canelo he won't even speak the name of Benavidez as far as future match. Hopefully that changes and a natural/obvious rivalry can come off finally, but I think with Canelo teetering at peak/semi slide of career it'll make it even more difficult to come off. Style wise Benavidez may be wiser than Bivol for Canelo but both are very real physical threats.
