    I agree with your assertion that Canelo's best days are behind him, most fighters that turn pro at the age of 15 start slipping after they hit 30. Combine that with Canelo being one of the busiest fighters.

    However, Bena has shit footwork, defense, and his power may be overrated. I don't think he has a shit chin just because he got dropped previously, but it certainly isn't elite.

    A lot of Bena fans have said this is a bad matchup for Canelo, I think it's the other way around. With the specified weaknesses of Bena, Canelo could slip quite a bit and still get an easy UD.

    I think the point is moot, after Ryder I see Canelo rematching Bivol.

    Always nice of you to make an appearance, old timer.

    I think Canelo is all talk about the Bivol rematch. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe he will go for the rematch, idk.

    I think he'll fight Benavidez next. In September. It makes dollars and it makes sense.

    No one is gonna pay to see Bivol-Canelo II. Benavidez-Canelo will be the biggest money fight of 2023, surpassing Davis-Garcia in terms of gate and PPV sales.

    Loses to Bivol.

    Wins against Bena.

    May retire after either.

    Benavidez-Plant PPV Numbers are ALL OVER the Fucking Road…

    On YouTube Alone, There’s Videos Stating 750k, Which is OBVIOUSLY Bullshit. There’s Also a Fighthype Video Interview w/Bob Arum Saying “Less Than 100k, Which is Also OBVIOUSLY Bullshit…

    Like REED Said Pre-Fight, He’s Expecting 250k-300k…

    Arum said it pretty matter of factly. maybe he's exaggerating but like i said before i doubt it broke 125k. who are the go to sources we should believe when it comes to PPV #s?

    How Would Arum KNOW, Exactly??? It’s Like PBC and Al Haymon Speaking on a UFC PPV:Jest:

    Granted, Live Gate/PPV Projections Have Been Somewhat GUARDED to This Point, Beyond Publicizing a “Sellout Crowd”, Which ISN’T a Positive Sign, Admittedly…

    But it Would Still SHOCK REED If Benavidez-Plant DIDN’T Generate 250k Minimum…

    Arum would be a guy with sources to actually know. Whether he'd be honest about what he hears is something you can be skeptical about

    Ain't no goddamn way it was under 100k. It was literally the buzz of my social media feed last Saturday. You have to understand that a lot of casuals don't even know HOW to find a legitimate fight stream. I know this because hella of them MFs ask me how to find a stream all the time. We know how to find them if we really want because we were finding fight streams in the pre-Facebook and Twitter days, but you'd be surprised how many ppl are still ignorant to it.

    I say that to say, with all the buzz surrounding people watching last week, I assure you that MOST of them were actually ordering it.

    Arum is full of shit. I'm 100% sure that he is.

    Mind you, it was the buzz of my social media and I'm on the EAST COAST where there isn't even a huge Mexican population. My vicinity is far more dominated by Blacks, Ricans, and Italians.

    Under 100k my ass.

    I saw so many comments on Facebook and Instagram like: "Money well spent." "Great fight! I don't regret ordering it."

    These are NOT comments I ever see for under 100k ppv fights. You don't hear ANYTHING on FB and IG for sub 100k buy fights.
