“After waiting so long for Canelo Alvarez, only to have him avoid us at all costs, David will wait for no one ever again,” Sampson Lewkowicz, Benavidez’s promoter, said in a press release. “We offered Bivol $8 million to face David last year, and he chose to vacate the WBC title a day before a scheduled purse bid rather than face him. [Former champion Artur] Beterbiev is coming off a loss, so other than money, he brings nothing to table. Besides, David wanted the winner of [the] rematch, not the loser. David would stop Beterbiev.”
