Here you can find all you need to know about this boxing fight, such as the preview, storylines, predictions and odds.
It’s been a little over a year and a half since the last one. More specifically, December 5, 2020 was the last fight for the 34-year-old fighter born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. On that occasion, a unanimous decision after 12 rounds gave victory to his rival, Errol Spence, who retained the WBC and IBF welterweight titles.
A lot of time has passed since then and now “Swift” will get back in the ring in the Super Welterweight division. His rival will be the also American (born in Panorama City, California) Jose Benavidez Jr., who could not get the victory in his last two fights (1 loss and 1 draw) so he will do everything possible to win again.
