A new order in light heavy weight: Why Benavidez deserves the crown

The ring updated its lightweight heavy weight rankings and some solutions are needed to move more talented fighters from below to the top.

Heavy -weight indisputable light champion Dmitry bivol It is placed understandable as king of the division. However, as we have seen with other classes of weight, being the champion of four belts is not what it is.

Rethink 175

We have to do it Ignore the championsEspecially the non -maneuver champions carefully. Instead, focus on real talent, contestants, who have not received the opportunity to fight for titles because they are the ones that the snake promoters, who find ways to divert them. David Benvidez is clearly the true king of the division of 175 pounds, and Bivol only one of the underlined ones below.

King: Dmitry Bivol

1. Artur Beeterbiev
2. David Benavidez
3. Callum Smith
4. Jodan
5. Anthony Yarde
6. Albert Ramirez
7. Oleksandr gvozdyk
8. David Morrell
9. Willy Hutchinson
10. Imam Khataev

We have to do it Launch the indisputable As part of the classification system for fighters because it does not mean that the fighter is the best. It just means that they have powerful promoters and, in some cases, make questionable decisions in fights that should have been rated as a tie. Bivol is not the king of the division of 175 lb.

Bivol’s recent struggle against Artur Beeterbiev was considered a draw by many fans to be considered as a king of heavyweight light division. In addition, I do not see Bivol defeat David Benavidez or David Morrell. You can argue that Bivol is just a well -promoted fighter, who has Eddie Hearn as a promoter and is not the true king. He is very well known and was very, very lucky with the score of his comeback with Artur Beeterbiev on February 22 in Riad, Saudi Arabia.
