WBA ‘regular’ light heavyweight champion David Morrell (11-0, 9 KOs) defends his belt against WBC interim champ David Benavidez in the 12-round at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas tonight – The main portion of tonight’s event begins at 8 pm ET/5 pm PT on PBC Prime Video PPV for $79.95. Prelims start at 5:30 p.m. PT/2:30 PT on PBC’s YouTube channel for free.
The fight build-up has angered Benavidez because he’s not accustomed to facing an actual threat, and the Cuban Morrell poses a real one.
‘The Monster’ Benavidez has not been a happy camper around the former Cuban amateur star, bristling at his Hollywood movie star looks and self-assurance.
Benavidez doesn’t seem to like that Morrell has taken the attention away from him that he feels he deserves after 12 years of proving himself against a handful of old ex-champions.
B247 will provide live results below for tonight’s action bow.
