Callum Smith’s Lukewarm Response To David Benavidez Fight Creates Speculation Of Waiting For Bivol-Beterbiev Payday

Calum Smith says that the promoter Edi Herne has not made any updates to him whether his next battle will be against WBC and WBA [regular] Next heavy heavyweight hero David Pinavides. Smith (31-2, 22 Cos) states that Hern has “a few meetings this week”, and he will tell him what the plan is in his next battle.
How to speak Calum, Possibility I wish Washy On the theme of Benavidez (30-0.24 KOS), it does not seem excited to take this battle. When Smith wants to fight against a particular boxer, he talks about a storm, but in this case, he does not seem excited to fight the “Mexican Monster” Benefidies.
Looking to the big battle
It is easy to understand why Callium and Hearn do not want to fight David. Smith holds the temporary WBO title for heavyweight and is in a position that allows him to challenge the winner of the Dmitry Bivol trilogy and Artur Beterbiev 3 Trilogy for huge funds. Calum is likely to throw this potential option away from himself if Benavides fought. It is one thing to get rid of his victory over Joshua Patsei, but it is a completely different boiler of fish that takes on Navidies. It is not defective.
Herne read like a book. Callum Smith will not leave anywhere near David Benavidez, given that he is 34 years old and in a position that allows him to obtain a profitable day -n-payment day against the BIVOL-BETERBIEV three-year-old winner. It seems that the Turkish sheikh loves to choose British fighters. It is something that does not want to use Callum as the next opponent of those who appear victorious in the third battle between Bivol and ARTUR.
He knows that if he motivates Benavidez to the winner, they are likely to lose in front of the talented “Mexican Monster” very badly. So, instead, Smith will choose the fish for one of them. The British will love to see that match. We will be indifferent, but I doubt that even views will be considered. It is a battle that will focus entirely on the UK market. BIVOL-BETERBIEV infection in Callum.
Herne’s silence
Eddie [Hearn] He says he had a few meetings this week, and he will tell me what the plan is. I don’t know. “I am ready to know what the next step is,” said Calum Smith. IFL TV When asked about the plans for him to fight David Benefidiz after that.
“Regardless of who he is, I am in a good position. So, it will be a good battle in both cases. He is a very good fighter, someone I love and evaluate,” Smith said about BENAVIDEZ. “We were both heroes in 168 at the same time. It is a battle I always thought would happen at some point. Perhaps this should have happened at that time, but it did not.”
Does this seem like a person interested in fighting beenavidez? Smith does not seem interested in this battle at all. He knows that he is in a good position to fight for great money against BETERBIEV or BIVOL, and he will not want chaos by applying by David Benavidez.
“Now, we are in 175. It is a battle I love. I think stylisticly, it should be good too. So, we’ll see if this is the next option. I’m sure it will be good. I have no idea,” said Callum when asked about how advanced negotiations with Benavidez.
“I will hold it [Hearn]. He mentioned that he believed it [Benavidez] It might make me an offer from PBC, but there has been no offer yet. Therefore, we will have to sit and wait. We hope things will move this week, regardless of who is. I want to know when the next battle is so that I can return to the gym. Calum said: “I do not know what the logical battle is.”
