On February 1st, one of the most anticipated fights in the world of boxing will take place, when David Benavidez defends his interim WBC light heavyweight title against David Morrell Jr., at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Benavidez, a two-time champion who never lost his title in the ring, is known as the ‘Red Flag’. He won his current interim desgination by defeating former WBC champion Oleksandr Gvozdyk in a fabulous fight. Under WBC rules, boxers have to prove they are reducing weight gradually by taking a 30-day pre-fight weigh-in. Benadvidez still has a bit of weight to lose as he weighed in at 191.5 pounds. The light heavyweight limit is 175.  The undefeated Morrell, an interim WBA champion in the 168-pound division, decided to jump to 175 pounds in search of fresh challenges.
