Who should Benavidez fight next poll after Benavidez defeats Ramirez to become a three weight-world champion in boxing.
Who do you want to see him fight next?
There are a few options as things stand. Here is what some are saying after.
- Ring Mag post comments: “NOW MAKE THE JAI OPETAIA vs DAVID BENAVIDEZ FIGHT”.
- Benavidez: Bivol is No. 1 on hit list.
- Benavidez called out Canelo at 175.
- Fans also want Artur Beterbiev at light-heavyweight — a good scrap as well.
- “Jai is the fight to be made but Benavidez decided to go back down to fight Bivol next” — one fan enthused on social media.
- Canelo set for Mbilli, Bivol has Eifert May 30 — after that maybe Canelo is possible.
- Opetaia vs Benavidez trending in comments after the fight.
- Munguia unlikely after Canelo alliance.
- Poll consensus: 1) Bivol, 2) Opetaia, 3) Canelo.
- Heavyweight move discussed but not immediate. Usyk vs Benavidez is a good fight.
The above top three from what we can see from fans online are what are being called for at the moment.
All three are good fights in their own way.
The Canelo fight is the biggest one by far obviously but he is fighting someone else in September.
The other two more realistic for Benavidez next.
Usyk vs Benavidez would be outstanding as well though. Not that much a height and size difference but Benavidez would have to bulk up to go up to heavyweight.
