It’s important to remember that Canelo taunted Benavidez when he saw David ringside in the fight against Munguia and even hinted the money that needs to be paid for him in advance. “$200 million. Maybe.”

That’s why, during the latest interview with ESPN, David Benavidez explained that Canelo is just running away. “If I’m not marketable, why is he asking $150 million from me? This is the only thing the world of boxing wants to watch. When Canelo says that I have no value, it’s because he is scared. He knows that as soon as I get on the ring all those belts will be leaving with me.”
