Benavidez’s Canelo Obsession: Is It Stalking At This Point?

David Benavidez knowledgeable the media that he’ll be attending the Canelo Alvarez vs. Jaime Munguia battle on Could 4th on the T-Cell Enviornment in Las Vegas.

Displaying traditional stalker conduct, Benavidez is predicted to crash Canelo’s get together instantly afterward to press him for a battle whereas the cameras and highlight is on the golden-haired celebrity to strain him to finagle a battle/payday.

Why is Benavidez Even Going?

I don’t see why Benavidez (28-0, 24 KOs) is continuous together with his tiresome pursuit of a celebrity Canelo (60-2-2, 39 KOs) as a result of he’s already mentioned in plain language that he’s NOT going to battle him and he simply doesn’t appear to be getting it.

Canelo has made it crystal clear that he’s not serious about a battle with him. For Benavidez to proceed together with his urgent, it should have the alternative impact, with Canelo being even much less keen to provide the obsessed-looking fighter a crack at preventing him.

Benavidez claimed just lately that he was giving up on his lengthy pursuit of a match towards Canelo and that he as a substitute was going as much as 175 to give attention to changing into the undisputed mild heavyweight champion by preventing the winner of the June 1st battle between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol.

Now, his conduct reeks of an obsessed individual with stalking, and hopefully, he doesn’t make a foul scene on Could 4th and must be hauled off.

Safety Will Be Tight

You finest imagine the safety shall be tight on Could 4th, with the ring well-guarded by safety personnel looking out for anybody making an attempt to enter earlier than, throughout, and after the Canelo vs. Munguia battle, particularly a wild-eyed Benavidez intent on seizing his large alternative to disrupt Alvarez’s second of glory.

I believe it will be a nightmare if a drunken Benavidez has been hitting the bottle once more and determined he wished to climb via the ropes and confront Canelo whereas the digital camera is on him and tens of millions of followers are watching at house.

Doable Motivations

Why Benavidez would need to crash Canelo’s get together:

• Simply Can’t Let Go: Yeah, Benavidez has mentioned that he’s given up on making an attempt to get a battle with Canelo, however he’s nonetheless mentally hoping in his head {that a} miracle will occur. He publicly says he’s moved on, however deep down, he’s nonetheless hoping for a miracle. Seeing Canelo in individual on Could 4th can permit Benavidez to maintain hoping for his dream to return true.
• Media Consideration: Benavidez acknowledges that bringing ringside will make sure that the media give him loads of consideration all through the Canelo battle. It’s one other approach for Benavidez to rachet up strain on Canelo with the press to maintain him underneath the gun to drive him to lastly give in to his needs.
• Only a Boxing Fan? There’s at all times the doable that Benavidez solely desires to be on the Canelo-Munguia battle simply as a fan to see battle. I don’t see it that approach and neither do the followers. Given Benavidez’s historical past of pressuring Canelo for a battle, it appears apparent this can be a calculated transfer to weasel a battle.
