This stoppage combined with Canelo’s loss will put Benavidez more on the map (a lot of fans get swayed like that).

I was impressed with Gomez, Cotto came to not lose and not get knocked out.

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
Seriously, what is Plant going to do to keep David off him? Charlo doesn’t even fight at the weight, but hasn’t looked good in his last few fights. I can’t get over that Montiel performance. Besides, he’s going to stand right in front of David. At least Plant can attempt to pull a Lara, but it’s not going to work. Plant is getting walked down. I think he’d have a better chance than Charlo moving up in weight and fighting a much bigger man, though.
We don't know what Plant will do.. just like we don't know what David will do with any fighter with an actual pulse..

Lemieux looked like a deformed manlet in there against Benavidez.

Talk about A-side knowing the right mismatch to make.

Yeah, once I thought Mall would knock Benavidez's ass out because he is there to be hit, basically walks into close range square with a basic guard but since then the Montiel fight happened and just somehow feels like neither Mall's or Plant's power will be enough to stop the onslaught.
Plant would probably start well then tire out and stopped

Charlo wouldn't stand in front of him imo, he has a great jab, he would do something similar he did against Derevyanchenko but I don't see him outboxing and outslugging Benavidez for 12, probably gets walked down by the championship rounds.

Benavidez will be beaten when he faces someone high level who can push his shyt in, he couldn't do this volume zombie shyt against a Beterbiev, Bivol or Canelo imo, can't just walk straight through their power.

Fight was basically over In Rd 1.

Rest of the fight was just Lemieux racking up CTE points.

DB needed to make a statement and he did.
Would you call this a statement though? Can a statement be made against Lemieux in 2022 by a fighter who's a 2 times champion already?

There was that odd chance that Lemieux lands a left hook flush and then we will see what happens but it was a fractional chance. Benavidez did what he had to, even quicker than it was expected but idk if I'd call stopping Lemieux now a statement.

Seemed like Benavidez had a smidge more defense awareness in this fight
Body was still wide open but least we see he will respect real power up top. None of that shaking his head and smiling shyt this fight. An in shape half way defensively responsible Benavidez will be a problem for anybody.
