PPV.com, which does not require a subscription, returns for its 2025 season debut when it live streams in the U.S. and Canada an explosive battle between interim WBC light heavyweight champion David "El Monstro" Benavidez (29-0, 24 KOs) from Phoenix and WBA light heavyweight regular champion David Morrell, Jr. (11-0, 9 KOs), a Cuban native who hails from Minneapolis. The action will be streamed live from T-Mobile Arena in the 'Fight Capital of the World,' Las Vegas on Saturday, February 1st, beginning at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT. Priced at $79.99, it can be ordered at PPV.com.
Hall of Fame boxing commentator Jim Lampley returns to co-host the popular viewer chat in real time throughout the HD live stream. "As soon as I agreed, fifteen months ago, to return to ringside doing live viewer chat with PPV.COM, I began hearing speculation on the exciting possibility of David Benavidez vs. David Morrell. The ringside consensus is that they are two of the biggest punchers in the light heavyweight neighborhood, and the winner may be in position for a megadollars summit meeting with another big puncher, [world champion] Artur Beterbiev. I’m packing to go to Las Vegas for Benavidez vs. Morrell February 1st," said Lampley.
Lampley's eagerly anticipated memoir, It Happened!: A Uniquely Lucky Life in Sports Television, will be released on April 15.
Joining Lampley on the live viewer chat will be award-winning boxing journalist Lance Pugmire, popular podcast hosts Dan Canobbio, and former WBO junior welterweight champion Chris Algieri. Jim, Lance, Dan, and Chris will also be providing exclusive fight week commentary and reports from Las Vegas for PPV.com's website and social platforms.
The Benavidez vs. Morrell pay-per-view live stream undercard will feature three other bouts: the rematch between WBC featherweight champion Brandon Figueroa (25-1-1, 19 KOs), Texas, who is looking to avenge his only pro loss, and Stephen Fulton, Jr. (22-1, 8 KOs), the former WBC/WBO junior featherweight champion from West Philadelphia, who is bidding to become a two-division champion; Mexico City's Isaac "Pitbull" Cruz (26-3-1, 18 KOs), a former WBA 140-pound champion vs. Angel Fierro (22-2-2, 17 KOs) from Tijuana, in an all-Mexican ten rounder; and opening up the pay-per-view live stream will be a ten-round middleweight rumble between Jesus "Mono" Ramos, Jr. (21-1, 17 KOs) from Arizona and former two-belt junior middleweight champion Jeison Rosario (24-4-2, 18 KOs) from the Dominican Republic.
