Trainer Abel Sanchez commented that Anthony Yarde will not be an easy fight for David Benavidez, but predicted that the Mexican-American will win easily and retain his WBC 175-pound title.

In an interview with SecondsOut, Sanchez made it clear that he has no doubt that Benavidez will easily defeat the dangerous Yarde this Saturday, November 22nd, in Saudi Arabia.

“The fight with Yarde isn't easy, but David has talent. Anthony will be there for him. He'll give him a tough fight, but in the end, David Benavidez will win easily,” he said.

According to experts, the British boxer is one of the most dangerous challengers David Benavidez will face at 175 pounds due to his great power. Despite this, the Mexican-American remains the favorite to win.

Remember that after Dmitry Bivol decided to vacate his WBC title, the Mexican Monster became the undisputed champion of the division and expressed interest in fighting Callum Smith or Anthony Yarde.

In the end, it was Yarde who secured the challenger position, and this will be his third opportunity to try to become a world champion. The Mexican Monster, on the other hand, will make his first title defense after dominating David Morrell Jr. in his last appearance in the ring this past February. David Benavidez, 29, won the WBA regular 175-pound title after defeating David Morrell by decision in his last fight. The Mexican Monster boasts a record of 30 wins, 24 by knockout, and no losses in his professional career. Anthony Yarde, 33, is coming off a victory over Lyndor Arthur last April and could now be crowned WBC light heavyweight champion. The English fighter has 27 wins (24 by knockout) and three losses.
