David Benavidez says he would rather fight against the Dmitry buffalo, not Arthur Beterbiev, if he had a choice. Benavidez wants to fight the buffalo (23-1, 12 ko), because he burned a lot with him and feels that he really won his previous fight against Arthur Beterbiev.
Benavidez says that the beating of buffalo will prove to fans that he is “better than Canela”, which is not true. The battle of Bivol gives Benavides a much more chance of winning the face of Artur Beterbiev, who would be a nightmare for him.
Obviously, the judges saw this differently, giving Beterbiev (21-0, 20 ko) a victory because of a buffalo who decided to launch the last seven rounds after being powerful from Arthur’s powerful right hand and injured him.
Benavidez’s strategy
It is not surprising to anyone that Benavidez (30-0, 24 ko) rather does not fight the dangerous percussion of Beterbiev because he has tremendous strength and is an excellent internal fighter.
The way Benavidez would fight would be ideal for Beterbiev, because he would use his punching volume. Moreover, the punishment that Benavidez performed in his last fight against David Morrel last Saturday night may have pulled a lot from him. Cuban has been many times and has nothing left in the last three rounds.
Benavidez just threw his hand shock and ate huge shots on his head, leaving his face unrecognizable. He looked like he was beaten by a truck. For comparison, Morrell appeared unmarked, which further indicated that Benavidez lacked forces in 175.
He was good when he fought in 168 against the elderly, smaller fighters, but in a light teaching, there is no strength in his shots. His last two struggles saw him taking more penalties than all the other 28 matches in combination.
“I would choose the buffalo because he beat Canela. Basically, if I beat the buffalo, that would make my case better than Canela,” said David Benavidez Ariel Helwani channel Which is rather a fight against Dmitry Bivol of Arthur Beterbiev, as it would help him prove that he is better than Canelo Alvarez to impress Ultra hardcore fans of boxing who closely follow sports.
“I know Dmitry buffalo is really good. I merged it, and he’s a great fighter and we had a lot of great saving sessions. So, I would like to fight the buffalo,” Benavidez continued. “If a buffalo wins this fight [Beterbiev]They will have to make a rubber game. Who am I to say that I cannot fight another fight. They fought with two big fights. If that happened, I wouldn’t fight until he was done, and then I would get into that fight after having a trilogy.
“My father talked to him by phone [Turki Al-Sheikh]. We’ll go there [Riyadh] 22. February, and we will probably understand everything if the buffalo wins again [correction: Beterbiev beat Bivol on October 12th last year] or if the buffalo wins. It’s probably too much time. “
It’s pretty obvious why Benavidez wants a buffalo to win, not Beterbiev because he doesn’t match Arthur. He knows that, obviously, he also prefers Finese Fighter Bivol, who has no strength and is a runner.
“I think I have proven to everyone at the level. I am against anyone, I bet the house against me is against anyone,” said Benavidez, who wore sunglasses.
