The biggest fight in boxing that fans may never get to see is the highly debated Canelo Alvarez vs. David Benavidez fight. However, it’s not for a lack of trying on Benavidez’s part. In a recent pinch, the undefeated ‘Mexican Monster’ shared a clip on social media, showcasing the support he has received from the combat world to pursue a fight against ‘Cinnamon.’

Meanwhile, Canelo Alvarez has finally put a number on the fight, claiming he wouldn’t do it for anything less than that. And the amount he has demanded isn’t a joke! In a recent interview, the Mexican superstar asked for promoters to approach him with a figure in the $150 million to $200 million range. Whether he gets that money or not is yet to be seen, but people like Curmel Moton and Mike Perry are on board for the fight regardless. 

Floyd Mayweather thinks Canelo Alvarez is ducking Benavidez

Turning to Instagram, Benavidez shared the clip, captioning it, “ Nothing and No One Will Stop Me From Achieving My Dreams!” In the meantime, the clip showed Stephen A. Smith calling out Canelo to accept the fight because everybody wants to see it. Even mixed martial artist Henry Cejudo commented on the topic, stating, “He doesn’t want to fight the ‘Mexican Monster.’”

However, if that wasn’t enough, Floyd Mayweather blatantly accused Canelo of ducking Benavidez. Even Jim Lampley chimed in, stating, “[The] boxing world wants to see him in the ring with Canelo Alvarez.” What’s more, when Curmel Moton and the rest of the boxing world discovered the clip, they had a similar idea.
