Good points. Agree on some.
Yes... Oscar and most of the boxing world is right. Canelo DOES need to fight Benavidez, or as you well put it..... GTFOH.
Yes... Beterbiev beats Ginger regardless of whether he (Beterbiev) loses to Bivol. (If that happens, I wish Team Canelo would mistake that for vulnerability and make the fight.It won't happen.)
Slight disagreement? I think Ginger needs much less than 5 rounds to get the nod against Bivol. Dmitry gave him a thorough waxing the first time, and somehow the judges made it close. A second time around they would rob Bivol for sure. Bivol would need a knockout to win.
My biggest disagreement is with the Pacquiao comparison. Pac's second-to-last fight was against an undefeated Keith Thurman. Against whom he eked out a split decision. It was a fight Pac could've easily lost. Clearly not Ginger's M.O. Ginger took the fight against Bivol as a gross miscalculation on his/their part. They learned their lesson... and it won't happen again. Manny was obviously not scared of the big bad "L" on is record, as evidenced by the fights he took and lost. Ginger doesn't take a fight (except Bivol), unless Team Canelo's computer spits out a 99% probability of victory, including factors like draining the opponent, ridiculous clauses, etc.
No. Ginger's template is 180 degrees from Manny's.
