Today at their 59th annual world convention in Mexico City, Alvarez’s trainer Eddy Reynoso petitioned the WBC to allow the future hall-of-famer to challenge Makabu for a chance at another world title in an amazing fifth weight division. Reynoso’s request was granted unanimously.
Som svar, Lewkowicz immediately requested that Benavidez (25-0, 22 KOS), whom many considered at the top of the list of potential next Canelo opponents, be given a chance to hold their world championship for the third time in his undefeated career. The request was also granted.
An opponent for Benavidez’s attempt at a third WBC belt will be announced shortly.
