David Benavidez says he is ready to go to the “war” in his defense of the heavy Heavy belt title of the WBC against the answering machine Anthony Yarde on November 22 in Riyadh. Yarde (27-3, 24 kos) has repeatedly said that he wants his fight to be a “war in the center of the ring”, as he likes his possibilities in a struggle like this.
Yarde cannot be counted on, as he had a -lightweight heavyweight champion Artur Beeterbiev wounded a couple of occasions in his fight in 2023. Although Anthony lost, he showed that it is dangerous even for the best boys in the weight class.
Benavidez’s vulnerability is in the body. We saw how he was wounded against Oleksandr GVOZDYK when the former champion stopped hunting his head and focused on his body in later rounds. The “Mexican monster” also has a poor gas tank. He has been spent after nine rounds in the last two struggles against GVOZDYK and David Morrell.
“He knows what I carry on the table. When I respect someone, it is when I get the best,” Anthony Yarde said during today Press conference For his title challenge against David Benavidez.
Benavidez Overconfidence: Threat of the garden
David may not know what Yarde brings to this struggle, because he may suppose he will win. With the way Benavidez says he can beat anyone in 175, this is a trusted signal. He is too annoying for his good and has not looked closely at the defects he showed in his last two fights. Benavidez acts as if he could walk on the water and are out of contact with reality. Is Classical narcissism.
“He knows that I can hit. He can also hit. In the boxing, a punch can change -everything. I have not yet been a world champion. I have to prove -I know who I am, and he is the one who fights Benavidez,” said Yarde.
“Anthony Yarde has a lot of experience. I also like to go to war,” said Benavidez. “I want to give an example. In the lightweight heavy weight division, no matter if they reach the best.
Benavidez (30-0, 24 kos) could reconsider a slugfest against Yarde after the value of the punishment career he absorbed in his victory over David Morrell in Cuba last February. He won this struggle, but the huge blows he took from Morrell made a number on his face.
However, Morrell seemed unmarked. The reason for this is the lack of power of Benavidez at a light level, and many of its machine guns were blocked by Morrell
“I am against anyone. I feel that I am the best in the world against people with great experience. If you want to go to war, we will go to war. I see many openings in it. This card is the one that will live in history for a long time. I want to steal the program,” said Benavidez.
It is unlikely that Benavidez will do it “Steals the show” For the November 22 event, because there are too many talented fighters on the card that can do more impressive and drama -filled performances than at the main event. He does not have the right opponent for his attention to this event. Yarde is essentially a six -round fighter
