He needs to work on some things. He had some defensive lapses and didn't seem like he had the gas to go 12 hard rounds.ElJefe wrote:Haven't watched the full fight yet. How do people think Benavidez fares against top 10 SMW's? Ideally you wouldn't rush him into anything he's not ready for but for as long as he's got the belt he'll have a target on his back. Then again, we all know what the WBC are like when it comes to enforcing mandatories so I wouldn't be surprised to see him face hand picked opponents for another 3 or 4 fights.
He's still the best fighter in the world at his age, though.
