David Benavidez vs Oleksandr Gvozdyk

Looks like Benavidez is moving up to 175 to face the Nail. Does Gvozdyk have enough in the tank to give David some issues?

David Benavidez Moving To 175, Faces Gvozdyk For WBC Interim Title In June - Boxing News 24

 

Wtf?

 

Joke of a fight. Fight Morrell you fuckin cokehead.

 

Just a couple days ago the WBC were making David Benavidez a mandatory fighter for Canelo to face but that’s been brushed aside so quickly. Not sure what happened there.

 

A prime Gvozdyk would've beaten David pretty handedly IMO.

 

Might be Canelo vs Munguia. That's the only way PBC will give Canelo his desired purse. PBC doesn't want Canelo vs Jermall, and neither do ANY boxing fans.

 

Canelo vs Munguia is probably the safer bet for Canelo’s team. Easy fight and money and it’ll still generate some interest.

 

Munguia might not win, but he'll be a lot more competitive than Jermall would be.

Jermall would 100% only be showing up for the check. Just like his brother.

Munguia will try to win.

Well, I think Munguia will try to win. Canelo is his idol, and that could be problematic. He might just be happy to be there.

 

Weird that canelo is dunking benavidez so obviously. Bena is good, but not all that

 

The Problem for Canelo is Benavidez has Gotten BETTER...He's Matured, More Focused, Shows Up Better Conditioned, etc., Nowadays...If Canelo Fought Benavidez Instead of Bivol (for Instance), Canelo WINS...Canelo's Regressed Since Then Though, and Benavidez Has IMPROVED...

Like Spence in the Case of Crawford, Canelo Waited toooooooooooo LATE...Should've Fought Him MUCH Soooooner...

It's hard to nap things in the bud (pardon the pun) when you're fighting Scrubber MacGoo and Buster Bozo for Megabucks..

 

Agreed, I don't really get it.

 

Benavidez would whup his ass at this stage, that's why.

 

I think it's close, personally, he's definitely the toughest challenge for Canelo under 175, not disputing that, but I haven't been blown away by Benavidez. Maybe I'm just not seeing it and it will become clear if they actually fight, which like everyone is saying probably won't happen since Canelo is being such a massive vag.

 

Alvarez will be the betting favorite vs benavidez if it does happen. You confident blokes should turn a nice profit

 

I think it's a near 50/50, and that's exactly why Canelo doesn't want it.

 

Fight is this weekend on the same card with Tank vs Martin. I’m actually pretty interested to see if Gvozdyk can make this a tough challenge for Benavidez.

 

Benavidez is clearly a threat due to his youth and non stop pressure style which for Canelo at this point in his career would probably too much for him. My guess is his team knows and they’re gonna steer him into more marketable and less DANGEROUS fights, such as against Berlanga, which I’m guessing will be made official in July.

 

I would love to see that fight. It’s one of the most fan-friendly action-packed fights that, unfortunately will probably never happen. I don’t think David is the one avoiding it, it’s his dumb ass father who’s been relentlessly pushing for the Canelo fight, almost as if Canelo personally stole David's lunch money. David seems like a chill dude. Dumb as a rock but a nice guy.
