Comments Thread For: David Benavidez Beats Down David Lemieux, Stops Him in Three

[SHO_RULEZ]

Lemieux had a legendary Canadian trainer in corner...after Lemieux survived the first round, you gotta tell this guy, take a round off. Put on the track shoes, grab, hold, get your stuff together, it's a 12 round fight. Lemieux goes right back in the pocket.

I hope Benavidez doesn't wind up like the Charlos, wasting his prime away on B fighters. Everyone is terrified of fighting him ! Heck, this beatdown problem cost Benavidez 2-3 more years in Boogeyman status

If you want Charlo to move up then you better hope Spence beats Crawford convincingly.

Only when Spence moves up will Haymon allow Charlo to move up.

Its gonna be a domino effect.

Spence moves up to 154lbs, forcing Jermell to move up to 160lbs, forcing Jermall to move up to 168lbs.

Until that happens, Jermall staying at 160lbs.

Haymon won't allow pbc to not have a single champion in the 160 weight class.

He'll only allow Jermall to move up to 168lbs when he can secure a back up for him at 160lbs.

This is how the business works.

Hope Haymon is your uncle or something, naw that’s not business that’s how ducking works. Charlo already said David is too big for 168, which is funny cus Charlo always bigger than any of his opponents. It’s clear he doesn’t want none. And he can keep dodging real opponents as long as fans keep making excuses for him

Mark my words charlo will stop talking about Benavidez now and act like the beef never happened .

Ggg didn't do it the way Benavidez did it who's not even In his prime yet at only 25

That doesn't matter one bit because I clearly remember that GGG got zero credit from the vast majority of the boxing fans for fighting a in his prime Lemieux at his natural weight seven years ago regardless of the outcome of the fight. The way I look at it is that Benavidez is a two time champ and Lemieux was the second best fighter he has fought to date. Dirrell was also 35 years old and hardly a world beater himself. With that said and until David steps up against elite fighters of any size there are still a lot of unanswered questions. I don't even believe that Plant will just stand in front of David and let him t-off on him.

Well if you really wanna do comparisons tell me who was GGG fighting at 25 yrs old? I'll waite.

[Kannabis Kid]

He may have said that...but I doubt he will and fight Benavidez, especially if Canelo goes down to 160 (which is what I think will happen) and he has an opportunity at that payday. We shall see, but I really don't think Charlo wants any part of Benavidez.

Where did you hear Canelo is going to 160? I don't think he can even make that weight anymore.

If Lemi is so washed up at 33 and out of his division, what does that say about Canelo fighting 40 year old GGG at 168? lol.

David is right there infront of him and hes chasing a 40 year old. Chasing greatness my ass. Pathetic.

[DougalDylan]

GGG is a unified champion .. Lemi has looked finished for a while now.

Benevidez would have had that Canelo fight by now if he could have kept himself in check.

He's a likable guy but his own worst enemy

[Oracle01]
