I think this is true, I mean who wouldn't want big money at the end of the day? And so if Canelo claiming to be one the best in this era then he should really give the young Benavidez at chance to fight him for money and legacy.
And it's good that we see this in media, so that Canelo will be pressure somewhat to listen to his fans and non-fans to give David a fight next year.
In the year 2024, we will see if Canelo will give the young and hungry Benavidez a chance to fight him, Mayweather gave him a chance when he was an up-and-coming boxer back then so why not return the favor and give Benavidez a chance to prove himself, he doesn't want to leave boxing questioning his legacy because he avoided a fighter like Benavidez.
Canelo mentioned a lot of fighters in his list but never Benavidez and this makes us believes that he tries to avoid Benavidez because he believes that what happened to him against Bivol could happen again here.
I'm locking this thread now, let see if there will be a change of minds and the Canelo will agreed to fight Benavidez.
