What is clear from any perspective is that they are unbalanced and should not be worth meeting because it can be confirmed that David Benavidez is the favorite, he has perfect winning percentage, you could even say that his victory is guaranteed.

It would be great if David Benavidez and Canelo Alvarez could actually meet because we would see the real champion but Canelo Alvarez has won many titles and he has got what he deserves in several classes that he has succeeded in mastering.
This would be very interesting fight if it could happen.

No, age will still affect it because if you can understand the fight from the start then you can see how the speed and agility of the two are very different and you can also see Andrade starting to falter when some of the punches that have hit him.
Breathing is major factor because Andrade is getting older, making his breathing worse because breathing greatly affects power performance and fighting performance.

The result of the Benavidez VS Andrade fight actually a great fight for David Benavidez, it was Round 6 retirement from his opponent while Jermall Charlo had a decent time by defeating Jose Benavidez Jr. For sure it was a great event but we have a next boxing event coming this weekend,

Benavidez vs. Andrade

David Benavidez DEF Demetrius Andrade - KO/TKO, RETIREMENT
Jermall Charlo DEF Jose Benavidez Jr - DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Subriel Matias DEF Shohjahon Ergashev - KO/TKO, RETIREMENT
Lamont Roach Jr. DEF Hector Garcia - DECISION, SPLIT
Michel Rivera DEF Sergei Lipinets - DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Vito Mielnicki Jr. DEF Alexis Salazar - KO/TKO
Muhammadkhuja Yaqubov DEF Pablo Vicente - DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Daniel Blancas DEF Raiko Santana - DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Curmel Moton DEF Hunter Turbyfill - KO/TKO
Israel Mercado DEF Wesley Rivers - DECISION, UNANIMOUS
Jabin Chollet DEF Jorge Perez - DECISION, SPLIT
Allen Medina DEF Alex Holley - DECISION, MAJORITY

In most of the boxing fights here, the result is expected and now that this event is finished, we will be having a great event next and it is between Garcia VS Duarte, and we also have the UFC even, for the MMA fans,

I believe 35 years old is still a prime age  although it maybe the start of the decline.  I do not think that the physical condition nor the age is the culprit or reason why Andrade losses, it is the difference in skill and defense that is the major factor of the result of the fight.


I know that the fight will end in by KO having Benavidez being the winner because as I watch the fight highlights of Andrade, his style lets him open for counters which is very dangerous when the opponent is Benavidez due to Benavidez's precision punching.

It's expected from David Benavidez. He is a monster. Tough chin. But I didn't expect that it would end like that. I mean I was expecting a KO instead of a stoppage.
Rounds 1 and 2 were trying to check the distance. He ain't that aggressive yet but when Round 4 came it was different and I think that's where the fight really ended when Andrade got wobbly after the knockdown. Andrade ain't fighting back and the referee warned him about that. It was supposed to be a TKO stopped by the referee but I guess Andrade's corner knows their fighter more that's why they stopped the fight. Benavidez is just too much for him.

I hear that Benavidez ain't stopping to challenge the king of super middleweight Canelo Alvarez. WBC should start making some appointments to make it happen. He deserves to get that fight as soon as possible. That will probably be one of the biggest fights in boxing history again so they better make it happen. A lot of money will be on the line.

With that, David Benavidez protected his WBC Interim Super Middleweight champion belt.

If you look at it physically, this fight doesn't look very balanced because Demetrius Andrade is older at 35 years old while David Benavidez is still 26 years old, so it natural that Andrade has not that good stamina and really lost in breath.
But you are right in predicting that this match didn't reach round 7 because Andrade team stated not to continue to round 7 which resulted in Benavidez having TKO victory.
But this is fight that Benavidez should have because he has all the advantages over Andrade.

This fight also generated very large amount of money for both fighters but David Benavidez got 75% share of the prize while Demetrius Andrade only got 25%.
And from this victory David Benavidez also increased his record to (28-0, 24 KO).

Too bad I was late in this event. If the sport is all about achievements then Matias-Ergashev is definitely the main event. Nonetheless, it's the only title fight and is the best match-up of the event. I have high regard for Ergashev, what I just don't like leading into his first title fight is his more than a year of inactivity. It'll be cool if Matias is given the chance by PBC to unify his belt against the other champions. But I doubt PBC will allow its popular but underserving WBA champion Rolly to get butchered by the Rican which should be the easiest to make as both are in the same promotion. WBC champion Prograis is with Matchroom while the lineal and WBO champion Lopez is with Top Rank.

I expected Jermall to destroy the sacrificial lamb, Jose Benavidez but he failed. If Jermall won't get Canelo next, I hope he won't face another bum next and should fight Plant, Morrell, or Benavidez. He should've been stripped of his WBC belt.

The main event was also expected so I did not even bother to score. If that was an active and younger version of Andrade a few years ago, I'd give him a better chance of finishing the whole 12 rounds due to his awkwardness, better reflexes and he's used to fighting long fights. What's more interesting is if he gets Canelo next with his long overdue WBC mandatory. But I'll be fine matching him against Morrell or Jermall if there's no Canelo.

Andrade's awkwardness kept him in the fight for a while but Benavidez is too strong and every body shot was zapping the energy out of Demetrius.
Benavidez was never hurt by Andrade so he just pushed his way forward and broke him down.

On the undercard I was impressed with Subriel Matias who maintains his perfect KO win ratio and also improved his streak of wins by retirement. I don't know if it's a record but 5 straight opponents quitting is even better than Lomachenko's streak when he earned the nickname "Nomaschenko".  A unification against Teofimo Lopez could probably sell out Madison Square Garden.

Jermall Charlo looked a bit rusty but still got the win against a naturally smaller Jose Benavidez Jr., who also only has one good leg. Charlo's best days may be in the past and I can't see him being competitive against Canelo or Jose's brother David. It seems like his best option might be Caleb Plant.

Yes, it was a blast, Benavidez didn't give any chance for Andrade to make the fight at least close in our eyes. Benavidez just put on the gas in this fight as if he wanted to proved something and that he is going to be a future champion.

And it's obvious that Andrade doesn't have any more gas tank or stamina and he look very unsteady when David will go and throw like 3-4 punch combinations and some of them are hitting the target. I thought though that at least 10 rounds this fight will go, but the Monster Mexican can't be denied and wanted to finished the fight early. With this win, we know who's David targeting next.

You got it mate, the fight ended at round 6, so hopefully you're able to put a bet on it and win. Unfortunately, Andrade doesn't have the stamina and I will say that his age is catching up on him.

He uses a lot of foot and good movement, but Benavidez is like stalking him and throwing a lot of power punches that really affect his gas tank.

And again, with this kind of victory, Canelo should step up by now and fight DB. There's no way that he Canelo will cement his legacy without giving DB a fight next year or before he retires.

I am presently watching Benavidez vs. Andrade. I reckon if this Andrade has good stamina and he can maintain this performance, he might have a chance. However, it appears that he became careless on the last seconds of the 4th round. This might be caused by low stamina and being tired.

I am quite certain that this will end before round 7. I will be very shocked if Andrade will go to a decision heheheh.

Yes, I think his new trainer knows this, that's why it doesn't make sense for him, even though that there is a belt in the line, to go down to 135 lbs because it's just going to REKT him physically. And I think even if he hires the best nutritionist in the world, he will still not be 100% if he fights on that weight class.

It's that during the Davis fight, he isn't the A-side, and so he has to nod to everything that Davis has to say, including the rehydration clause. It's close to saying that Ryan will not win that fight because he will be like a zombie against  Davis. And Tank knows this, that's why he attack his body in that fight.

Good point. He may be doing it for his own profit through views. We are all aware that streamers make money thru the videos they make and maybe he is the one making this issue bigger for his own good.
This is just the normal trash talk of the Gypsy King but he makes a ruckus out of it. I doubt many will believe whatever he says.

True. I really like Ryan Garcia to stay in his weight class now. Don't even come back downstairs because he will just get weak there. Just looking at his body figure, it is meant for the 140 lbs and I bet he will still have the speed that he wants in this weight. Cutting down weight will just risk his career and he is still young to do that. Just keep on climbing up because he has the body and the height for it. I mean, just look at how mismatched Davis was in statistics, and yet Ryan kneeled when punched in the liver.

I like to follow your assessment, since social media is one of the best places to make money, there's always reader who will like to
read a negative statement regarding a personality that is gaining attention all over the web.

Better to keep away or just ignore since there's nothing special about what the content creator's saying just pure self-proclaimed opinions.

It's more on how he will gain views and how he can take money from those poor viewers who watch or read the contents.

For sure he will make a comeback, be it with GBP or other promotions after his contract with GBP expires. So maybe what they want is just to test it first at 140 lbs, get a decent fighter in Duarte, win by a knockout and then his confidence is very high against and then he can call whoever he wants to fight next.


Shakur is at 135 lbs at best and Ryan will be hard pressed to go back to that weight class as we have seen that he is drain when he fought Davis at 135 lbs. So it's going to be a moving backward for them and it will have a big risk on Ryan. I think 140 lbs will be the best weight class for him at this point of his career.

These comments from Froch sound like bitterness. It's one thing to criticize Fury's talent or discipline, but Froch is questioning his masculinity and saying something completely non-sensical about sponsorships. Fury has had no problem making money since he signed with Top Rank and ESPN, many times more than what Froch ever made. I've seen some of Froch's YouTube videos in my feed and I always just ignore them because of how clickbaity the titles are. I don't know if Froch really believes what he says or if being a Fury hater is some kind of gimmick that gets him views and keeps him relevant.

^^ I think it's the right thing to do for those organizations, Charlo was given a leeway, he was even declared as undisputed before the WBO took that belt off from him. And then IBF followed suit. So he has the blessing to fight Canelo by those organizations and given him ample time if he wanted to defend it or not.

Tim has been relegated to full champion already, so that's good enough for him as he has been waiting for Charlo since June when he says that he was injured and then decided to go for the Alvarez fight.

I'm not familiar with the IBF fighters though, but it's good that if Bakhram Murtazaliev is the mandatory challenger, then he will have the first crack on the belt against Jack Culcay.

And it was reported that Jermell Charlo has vacated another belt or shall we shall strip because he wasn't able to defend the belt, Jermell Charlo Vacates IBF 154-Lb Title; Bakhram Murtazaliev Vs. Jack Culcay Likely For Belt

First it was his WBO belt that was stripped because he wasn't able to defend it against Tim Tszyu because obviously, he goes for Canelo for a bigger paycheck.

Now, it the IBF that stripped him of his 154 lbs belt. And then the organization will have Bakhram Murtazaliev Vs. Jack Culcay fight for the vacant belt.

Maybe we can see unification in the future Tim Tszyu vs the winner of the IBF belt.

There are a lot of good fights to make at 147 even without Crawford and Spence. Ortiz is planning a comeback, then we have Stanionis, Boots, and Butaev. There's also Thurman who's past his prime but is probably the most marketable. I don't think Bud is returning to 147. So I am expecting all the remaining belts to become vacant soon.

As for PBC, they did treat some fighters as second-class. PBC has a lot of questionable stuff including its managerial license when clearly it's a promotion. I remember someone said PBC is like a cult. There were cases wherein fighters sacrificed to receive their highest purse just because they wanted to stay with Haymon or they were simply ducking. Peter Quillin was the first I noticed, the guy was guaranteed over a million by Jay Z's Roc Nation to face Korobov but he declined it. Then undefeated Deontay Wilder declined a hundred million dollar deal with Matchroom to fight AJ twice. Jermall Charlo rejected a $7 million offer from Matchroom to fight Andrade. And then there's Boots as the latest to refuse a title shot with Crawford with a lame excuse. So somehow it's a good thing Showtime is leaving boxing. Even better if PBC ceases operations since there are promoters out there to sign its fighters and they are way easier to negotiate especially Hearn and De La Hoya.
