Mike Tyson names surprising suggestion for David Benavidez's biggest test in boxing
David Benavidez has been pitted against Canelo Alvarez for years now. While a fight between the two has not happened yet, it is still considered one of the biggest fights to make in the sport. Moreover, Alvarez is considered to be Benavidez's biggest test inside the squared circle.
However, boxing legend Mike Tyson recently gave a rather surprising take on the matter. During a recent interview with FightHubTV, Tyson called David Morrell Benavidez's toughest challenge and said:
“Best Mexican fighter right now? Listen, Benavidez is half-Mexican. He’s very exciting. I like the way he fights, he throws a lot of punches and it’s gonna be tough to beat him. The toughest fight he may have is the guy Morrell, the Cuban guy. He’s a really hard puncher, and if he hits somebody he can knock them out. But then again, Benavidez is a really good boxer. He slugs a lot, but he’s really good.”
