  • Beterbiev has three secondary champions (and a #1 contender who has been waiting over a year and a half for his shot)… might as well fight each other. All at least good fights except Ramos – Fierro – that is filth.

  • Morrell hasn’t fought anyone but Uber drivers from Uganda. He’s gonna get murdered by Coke head Benavides.
    Canelo still #1. NOBODY BEATS CANELO @ 168LBS. NOBODY, you hear me?

  • Great fight and card. The difference between Benavidez and Canelo is that ever since Canelo lost to Bivol, he’s been cherry picking opponents he could beat and Benavidez been fighting the tougher fighters.
