He was born on December 17, 1996, in Phoenix, Arizona.

Benavidez is a prominent boxer known for his dominance in the ring and his perfect record.

He boasts a professional boxing record of 30 wins, no losses, and no draws, with 24 of those victories achieved by knockout.

He made his professional debut at the young age of 16, quickly establishing a reputation for his powerful punches and aggressive fighting style.

He won his first seven fights by knockout, six of which occurred in the first round.

He has earned two nicknames due to his relentless fighting style: the “Mexican Monster” and “El Bandera Roja” (The Red Flag).

Throughout his career, Benavidez has held world championships in two weight classes, including the WBC super middleweight title twice and the WBA and WBC light heavyweight titles, which he currently holds.

Notable achievements in his career include a victory in March 2023 and winning the interim WBA belt from David Morrell Jr. after moving up in weight in February 2025.

After Dmitry Bivol's victory, Benavidez was elevated to world champion.

Will it be third time lucky for Yarde?

The British star is eager to finally achieve world champion status after two previous unsuccessful attempts, but he must first overcome WBC light heavyweight title holder, David Benavidez.

Yarde's first setback in boxing came in 2019 when he lost a WBO belt bout to Sergey Kovalev.

The British powerhouse then faced an eighth-round stoppage in his title fight four years later.

Since then, Yarde has secured four consecutive wins, which has earned him a chance to face the undefeated champion.
