A Jermall Charlo and David Benavidez fight is one which would excite fans.

For WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo, a fight with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez is the ultimate prize.

But while Canelo looks to become a two-time light heavyweight champion against Dmitry Bivol on May 7th, there's another Mexican which fans want to see Charlo face in the form of David Benavidez.

While the 31-year-old is interested in the fight, he believes there isn't much to gain if he beats Benavidez. 

" I'll fight him for sure,” Charlo said on Mike Tyson's Hotboxin' podcast

“I just think his value is low. He’s not worth as much as fighting someone like Canelo.

"I’d rather get one of the best in the world right now that got a belt."

If a fight with Canelo isn't on the table, Mike Tyson believes a fight with the so-called 'Mexican Monster' is the next logical choice for Charlo.

"He ain’t no Mexican monster,” Charlo stated.

“We box. We ain’t scared of nobody.”
