David Benavidez says he will fight against Callum Smith or Anthony Yarde. It bows towards Smith’s confrontation because he has the heavy weight title of Wbo. Benavidez (30, 24 kos) believes that he needs this belt to help the box of the winner of the Dmitry Bivol vs Artur Beeterbiev 3 trilogy to face it.
David Benavidez already has the title WBC and WBA “Regular” of 175 LB, but wants another belt to help pressure on the victory in the Bivol-Beeterbiev trilogy shock.
“Right now, we are thinking of Callum Smith or Anthony Yarde. Obviously, these are the two best in the division,” said David Benavidez in the pound 4 pounds with Kamaru and Henry YouTube Canal.
Smith and Yarde are two highest fighters, but not the two main boys from Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beeterbiev. There are still David Morrell. I doubt that any of the boys came to Morrell. Benavidez focuses on trying to force the winner of the Dmitry Bivol vs Artur Beeterbiev trilogy struggle to face him. However, this will require the participation of Turki Alshikh.
Bivol has already shown that he is willing to sacrifice a title to drag Benavidez, and if he did it once, he could do it again. It is a bad game for Bivol to face “The Mexican Monster”, and it is not a spring chicken at the age of 34.
We saw Bivol collapsed in the twelfth round in his resale with Beterbiev last February, when Artur suddenly came out with his pressure for the first time in the fight. The way Beeterbiev waited until the 12th to end Bivol under his gun seemed suspicious of some X. Fans.
If he had had it, there would have been no lucrative trilogy game and would have fired on his foot. The way Bivol collapsed in the three minutes of pressure, it made it clear that it would be easy to take for the youngest, younger Benavidez style.
It would not import the importance of Bivol, Benavidez monitored him, overflowing with volume and victory. That is why it is very possible that Bivol be seen again or retiring instead of fighting the Mexican monster and will end up being eliminated for the first time in his career.
“We are thinking that this struggle goes to the United States, which will take me a step closer to fighting these boys because I have the Interim WBA, I am the world champion in the WBC. Then, after winning Callum Smith, I will have the Wbo (provisional),” said Benavidez.
It seems that Benavidez is worried about the things he has no control. He should assume that Bivol will avoid him again, because he has already shown that he does not want him to be struggled. Why should Benavidez have to wait for something different? I should wait for Beterbiev to win, because he is brave enough to fight him. However, if Turki decides that he wants to see a fourth Bivol vs Beterbiev, he cannot do much Benavidez in this regard. Maybe I would like to come to the cruise weight and pass after Jai Opteia, because he would fight against him.
“Then, if (Artur Beeterbiev and Dmitry Bivol) do not fight me later, there is not much to say. I do not mean that people are sticking to me, but if you are getting the most you have done in your career. And, supposedly, I am an easy fighter to fight, why do you do it?” Benavidez said.
Bivol and Beterbiev are quite old, and they will be rich enough to withdraw without needing the additional money that a confrontation against Benavidez would contribute. They probably will come off if Turki does not want to finance a fight between Benavidez and the winner of Bivol vs Beterbiev. They will not want to assume a considerable salary to fight Benavidez, which would be a harder struggle for them. According to reports, they obtained $ 10 million each for their resale last February.
Without Turki’s participation, they would have been much less. Once again, these are major fighters. Going up against a young lion like Benavidez would not be ideal. The 40 -year -old Beterbiev seemed to have lost steps from his first struggle with Bivol. Dmitry is just a pure runner now and does not have enough in the tank to fight a young pressure fighter like Benavidez.
