Undoubtedly one of the best fights of the year, David Benavidez and David Morrell battled for 12 grueling rounds for Benavidez to unify the light heavyweight division by winning the WBC & WBA titles. In a battle of unbeaten fighters in the primes of their careers, Mexican star David “El Monstro” Benavidez continued his rise to the top of the sport with a bruising unanimous decision victory over Cuban sensation David Morrell Jr. headlining a PBC Pay-Per-View event on Prime Video Saturday night from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. With the victory, Benavidez retains his Interim WBC Light Heavyweight Title and picks up the WBA Light Heavyweight Title. "This is 'El Monstro's' world,” said Benavidez. “Shout out to Morrell, I knew he'd be tough and that's why I prepared so hard for this. I'm happy we were able to give the fans a great show tonight.” "It was a good fight,” said Morrell. “This is boxing, some days you win and some days you lose. Tonight was my turn. I'm young and I'll keep pushing for another opportunity.” With both fighters promising fireworks throughout the promotion, Benavidez (30-0, 24 KOs) and Morrell (11-1, 9 KOs) backed up their words from the jump, engaging in a high-octane contest that saw each fighter provide the other with the stiffest competition of their careers so far. The early Fight of the Year frontrunner featured over 1000 combined punches thrown and ended with Benavidez earning the judges favor by scores of 118-108 and 115-111 twice. After a back-and-forth start, Benavidez took control punch by punch, never letting Morrell breathe with his trademark series of thundering hooks and uppercuts. While the two fighters put forth a similar output of punches thrown (601 for Morrell vs. 553 for Benavidez), it was Benavidez who held a distinct edge in accuracy (40.5% vs. 27.5%) and shots landed (224 vs. 165) according to CompuBox. "I wasn't surprised by anything he did because I knew he was a great fighter and that I had to prepare for everything,” said Benavidez. “I knew my defense had to be good. I actually thought he'd hit harder once we were in here. He was easier to hit than I expected. Every opportunity that I saw, I went for it.” Morrell proved his championship mettle in defeat, and nearly put the momentum back in his favor in round 11 as he caught an off-balance Benavidez with a counter right hand that put him down for just the second time in his career. However, Morrell connected on a punch that was thrown after the bell ended round 11 and was deducted a point by referee Thomas Taylor. After yet another action packed round in the 12th, the two rivals who had shared heated exchanges and altercations throughout the lead up to fight night, embraced and showed the mutual respect gained after sharing the ring. "It was never bad blood for me,” said Morrell. “This moment feels great because we were able to give everyone a good show. I'm going to work my way back. We'll watch this fight and learn from what I didn't do well. We'll practice more and train harder and earn another fight against Benavidez. I know I can beat him.” After applauding Morrell’s efforts, Benavidez then set his sights on his continued rise at 175-pounds. "I just want to be the best of my era,” said Benavidez. “Whoever I need to fight next, I'll be ready for them. I want to unify all four titles, so if that's next, then that's next.” #DavidBenavidez #BenavidezMorrell #DavidMorrell Visit PremierBoxingChampions.com for more info.

Undefeated IBF Super Welterweight World Champion Bakhram Murtazaliev dropped former world champion Tim Tszyu four times on his way to a third-round stoppage in the main event of PBC Championship Boxing on Prime Video action Saturday night from the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida. After winning the title in his opponent’s home territory of Germany earlier this year, Murtazaliev (23-0, 17 KOs) made a statement by dropping Tszyu (24-2, 17 KOs) early and often on his way to the dominant stoppage. The first knockdown came in round two with a strong counter left hook sending Tszyu to the canvas. Tszyu showed the incredible grit that’s made him a superstar in his native Australia to rise to his feet, but was ultimately sent back to the ground two more times in the round. "We just worked on these combinations all the time and when the fight came, it was automatic,” said Murtazaliev. “We worked for 10 weeks on those punches that hurt him. We created opportunities and we believed that we could win this fight.” Continuing to press forward and look for moments in round three, Murtazaliev landed another vicious counter left hand that scored him his fourth knockdown in less than three rounds. While Tszyu continued to battle back, the onslaught from Murtazaliev proved to be too much as Tszyu’s corner threw in the towel, ending the fight 1:55 into the round. "When I landed that first big shot, I knew how hard it was,” said Murtazaliev. “Tszyu is a real warrior and I hope one day we can work together and spar and help each other to grow." "Every time I step into the ring I leave it all in there,” said Tszyu. “Things didn't go to plan and the better man won tonight. No excuses. After the first shot, things started not going according to plan. That's part of boxing, you get hit and reactions get slower. Bakhram is the man at 154." #MurtazalievTszyu #TimTszyu #Murtazaliev Visit PremierBoxingChampions.com for more info.

Canelo Álvarez hará la octava defensa de al menos un título de peso supermediano contra Edgar Berlanga el sábado 14 de septiembre en el T-Mobile Arena de Las Vegas (Prime Video PPV, 8 p.m. ET). Álvarez (61-2-2, 39 KOs) ganó su primer título de peso supermediano con una victoria por decisión unánime sobre Callum Smith en diciembre de 2020. Se convirtió en el campeón indiscutible al derrotar a Caleb Plant en noviembre de 2021, e hizo cuatro defensas exitosas, antes de que la IBF lo despojara del cinturón en julio después de que Álvarez decidiera enfrentarse a Berlanga en lugar del retador obligatorio número 1 de la IBF, William Scull. El combate Álvarez-Berlanga será por los títulos del CMB, la OMB y la AMB. También estará en juego el campeonato lineal. Álvarez, de 34 años y natural de Jalisco (México), viene de vencer por decisión unánime a Jaime Munguía en mayo, tras otra dominante victoria sobre Jermell Charlo en septiembre del año pasado. Berlanga (22-0, 17 KOs) comenzó su carrera con 16 victorias consecutivas por KO, ¡en el primer asalto! En sus seis últimos combates sólo ha encajado un KO. #boxeo #jorgeebro #boxing Si te gusta, suscribete a mi canal, es facil: https://www.youtube.com/c/SerEbroenlosDeportes?sub_confirmation=1 youtube.com/@SerEbroEnlosDeportes Si quieres ayudar al canal con tu membresía, puedes hacerlo aquí: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYmH4o7LpN960wkUBTMftKA/join SerEbro EnlosDeportes, creado, producido y editado por este canal Únete a este canal para acceder a sus beneficios: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYmH4o7LpN960wkUBTMftKA/join
