David Benavides says he would prefer to fight Dmitry Bivol, not Arthur Beterbiev then, if he had a choice. Benavides wants to fight a buffalo (23-1, 12 CO) because he has been saved a lot with him and feels that he really won his previous match against Arthur Beterbiev.
Benavides says Bivol's victory will prove to fans that it is “better than Kanelo”, which is not true. The fight against Bivol gives Benavides a much more chance of winning than to face Arthur Beterbiev, who would be a nightmare for him.
Obviously, the judges saw him differently by giving Betherbiev (21-0, 20 ko) the victory because Bivol decided to push the last seven rounds after being trimmed and injured in the middle point by a powerful right hand by Arthur.
Benavides' strategy
It is not surprising to anyone that Benavides (30-0, 24 CO) prefers not to fight the dangerous beat Beterbiev because it has tremendous power and is an excellent internal fighter.
The way Benavides fights would be ideal for Betherbiev, as he would take advantage of the breakthrough of the volume. Moreover, the punishment that Benavides took in his last match against David Morel last Saturday night may have taken a lot of him physically. He was repeatedly from the Cubans and had nothing in the last three rounds.
Benavides just strokes on his hand and ate huge shots in his head that left his face unrecognizable. It seemed to have been driven by a truck. For comparison, Morel seemed unmarked, further showing that Benavides had no power of 175.
He was good when he fought at 168 against older, smaller fighters, but in a light heavyweight there was no power in his staff. His last two matches have seen him take more punishments than all his other 28 games in combination.
“I would choose a buffalo because he beat Canelo. So, in principle, when I beat Bivol, it would make my case better than Canelo, “said David Benavides of Ariel Helvani channel For the preference to fight Dmitry Bivol than Arthur Betherbiev, because it would help him prove that he was better than Canelo Alvarez to the impressive ultra-Hardcore boxing fans who follow the sport closely.
“I know Dmitry buffalo is really good. I sparked him and he was a great fighter and we had a lot of great frugal sessions. So, I would like to fight a buffalo, ”Benavides continued. “If the buffalo wins this match (Beterbiev), they will have to make a tire match. Who I am to say that they cannot fight with another battle. They fought with two great matches. If that happened, I wouldn't fight until they were over, and then I would move to this battle after they have a trilogy.
“My father was talking to him on the phone (Turks Al-Sheikh). We will go there (Riyadh) on February 22nd and we will probably understand everything if the buffalo wins again (Correction: Betherbiev beat Bivol on October 12 last year) or if the buffalo wins. It is probably too long. “
It is quite obvious why Benavides wants a buffalo to win, not for Betherbiev, because he does not match Arthur well. He knows that he obviously prefers a finesse buffalo who has no power and is a runner.
“I think I proved to everyone what level I am at. I am against anyone, I will bet the house against me against anyone, “said Benavides, a poorly marked sunglasses.
