Benavidez got so sick of waiting for Canelo Alvarez to grant him a super middleweight world title shot – he spent two years as WBC mandatory – that the Mexican Monster (from Phoenix, Arizona) moved up to light heavyweight last year. A unanimous decision against Oleksandr Gvozdyk gave the 28-year-old the rounds he needed at 175lbs, especially his natural free-flowing style in throwing punches in bunches.
Morrell knows what's at stake as he defends his WBA regular strap, won against Radivoje Kalajdzic last August – a shot at the winner of Dimitri Bivol vs Artur Beterbiev for the undisputed light heavyweight title. The southpaw fights behind a traditional guard and has tried to ruffle a few feathers in the build-up with some trash talk and chat of Benavidez avoiding him – somewhat rich given Benavidez's attempts to fight Canelo.
Benavidez has that little bit more grade in beating Demtrius Andrade and Caleb Plant, but there's dynamite in Morrell's fists if he can unleash it. Expect fireworks.
Below, we'll show you how to watch Benavidez vs Morrell live streams from anywhere — in the U.S. or abroad. Plus, we analyse a stacked undercard that features former undisputed super bantamweight champion Stephen Fulton's rematch with Brandon Figueroa.
