Saturday night at the Michelob Ultra Arena in Las Vegas, David Benavidez, WBC interim super middleweight champion, 26 years old and originally from Phoenix, Arizona, will face also undefeated Demetrius Andrade.
David, one meter and 88cm tall and with a record of 27 wins, no losses and 23 by knockout, is distinguished by his hammering style and nifty footwork. A destructive all pervasive attack.
Demetrius Andrade is originally from Rhode Island and has an impressive record of 32-0 with 19 KO’s and is a natural righty, but he knows how to take the stance of a southpaw and intelligently uses reach to control distance.
In another exciting fight, Jermall Charlo will return to the ring after some time of inactivity, to face the tough fighter José Benavidez Jr. brother of David.
