Banavidez’s Instagram message to Canelo: “Fight me, that’s what the sport needs”

David Banavidez posted a message on Instagram aimed at Canelo Alvarez and told them to fight because it is ‘what the sport needs’.

Benavidez’s Name has been omitted Of Canelo’s four-game contract with the Riyadh season. Instead of being called ‘The Mexican Monster’, the 154-pound Terence Crawford is scheduled as Canelo’s September 13 opponent, and Bruno Surace and Jermall Charlo are options for his 4th fight.

Avoid benavidez?

Some people believe that Canelo told Turki al-Sheikh that he would not sign the contract for his four-match agreement if Banavidez was part of the agreement. It is actually credible. Banavidez was treated by Canelo like a leper, who does not want to fight for fighting him all these years.

“Imagine if Canelo just agreed and fight me. It’s not about the money. It’s about what the sport needs now, and we owe it to the fans. Without a doubt, it would go the best Mexican shooting in the history of the box. Let’s give the fans they deserve !!! We are 300 percent confident on this side, but I can’t say the same to the other side, ”David Banavidez said Instagram With his message to Canelo Alvarez.

Benavidez’s victory over the previously unbeaten WBA ‘ordinary’ light heavyweight champion David Morrell last Saturday night in Las Vegas may have ruined any chances that he would ever get a fight against Canelo. Benavidez looked to dominant in that battle, and showed no vulnerability in winning a wide 12-round decision. If he had struggled and fell through Morrell a few times, it would have contributed to bringing interest from Canelo.

Turki al-Sheikh needs to know that his four-match agreement with Canelo is likely to lead to his matches bringing in a poor PPV purchase if he does not take the fights the fans want to see, such as benavidez. The ideal situation would be that Canelo faces Banavidez in two of his four battles, as these games would create a lot of interest from fans worldwide.

It is useless for benavidez (30-0, 24 coes) to keep pushing the superstar Canelo (62-2-2, 39 COs) to fight against him, because he has already shown his hand, and the past Four years repeatedly chose less fighters.
