David Benavidez wants a shot at the championship titles held by fellow Mexican Canelo Alvarez. And it is safe to say that a fight between the two will be extremely entertaining to watch. Benavidez won his last fight against Caleb Plant via unanimous decision. And called out the ‘Cinnamon’ for a fight, following his win. But it seems like fighting Benavidez is not on the list at the moment for Alvarez. Benavidez’s team assured fans that they had sent an offer to Alvarez’s team for a potential showdown with Benavidez. But, it seems like those talks did not bear any fruit.

He wrote,I have to officially communicate to all the lovers of our beloved sport that ⁦@Canelo and ⁦ @CANELOTEAM did not respond to our proposal to fight with @Benavidez300″

Notably, a proposal was sent to Alvarez, not that long ago. Lewkowicz further revealed that the fight will not be taking place. The reason for Alvarez not taking the fight seems unclear.
