David Benavidez says he will not reject the fight against Artur Beeterbiev below if he is offered after his defense of the heavy heavy weighing belt title of the WBC against Anthony Yarde on November 22.
The former 175-pound champion beterbiev (21-1, 20 kos) is fighting against Nicholson at the Benavidez-Yarde underground in the Anb Arena de Riad. With the two Power Punchars fighting the same card, it is the ideal creation to promote interest in a struggle between the “Mexican monster” Benavidez and Artur Beeterbiev passing below.
Beeterbiev wanted to fight a trilogy match against Dmitry Bivol, but the party did not happen after Bivol’s decision not to continue negotiations. Fortunately for Arthur, he has the possible option of challenging Benavidez for his WBC title Si Turki Alshikh chooses to make this struggle pass if the two fighters win their preliminary contests at the November 22 event at Dazn PPV.
“Right now I am in a position where my opportunity is in the form of a Russian monster. So I can’t say no. Even if they offer me the struggle, I can’t say no,” said David Benavidez to Fighthype When asked about his thoughts about Artur Beeterbiev, he could be his next great opponent after his title defense on November 22.
Obviously, this is not the struggle that Benavidez has been pressing against Canelo Alvarez, but there is no interest in the part of the Alvarez Superestrella to fight him. As such, Beterbiev is the next best fighter Benavidez can take.
Bivol vacant the WBC title, avoids Benavidez
He has already written Bivol and dominated him. In that Sparring session, Benavidez saw that his style was wrong for Bivol. Therefore, it is not a crash that Dmitry recently chose to help his WBC title recently defend him against Benavidez when he was mandatory.
The real hard struggle for Benavidez is against Bertebiev because he has the power, the ability to punch and the style of pressure that he does not attack without stopping to give him problems.
“First, I will take care of this struggle and I look excellent in this struggle,” Benavidez said about his confrontation against Anthony Yarde. “If I am offered Artur Beeterbiev, that’s what I will do. I will take all the opportunities I can get.
“To prove your greatness, the biggest fighters have to take tougher fights to prove -I will be 29 years next year. I have confidence in myself and in my abilities. If this will be, I am about 100%,” Benavidez said about a fight against Artur Beeterbiev.
“The money will not be so good, but once I beat Artur Beeterbiev, there is no doubt in the mind of anyone that I am the best of 175 pounds,” said Benavidez. “The only fighter I should face is Bivol, and he would also go up and overcome Bivol. That’s all I asked.”
