On September 28 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California, the super middleweight champion of the World Boxing Council, Anthony “The Dog” Dirrell (33-1-1, 24 KOs) encounters  undefeated  former world champion, David ” Red Flag ”Benavidez (21-0, 18 knockouts).

Anthony comes from conquering the super middleweight  title by defeating Turkish Avni Yildirim by a technical decision, in Minnesota. He`s lost only once since becoming a professional 14 years ago. Back then…David Benavidez was only 8 years old.

Benavidez now aged twenty two, says he will hand Dirrell his career second loss, when they meet next week, commenting:  “I will go in there and recover what is mine. I`s so very motivated, very hungry, and I will  recover my crown.  Dirrell is a great fighter.  I used to see him when I was 12 years old. So  I’ve been watching him for a long time. And I feel I have the youth plus  the size to defeat him. I’m definitely going to show the fans that I am the best fighter in this division,” pledged “Red Flag.”

Benavidez offered a brisk public training in Los Angeles, showing his strength, endurance and excellent condition.
