Gervonta Davis and David Benavidez are gearing up for their highly anticipated pay-per-view bouts on June 15 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. The two knockout artists, headlining the main and co-main events respectively, are showcasing mutual respect as they prepare to deliver an unforgettable night of boxing.
Davis will take on Frank Martin for the WBA lightweight title in the main event, while Benavidez makes his light heavyweight debut against Oleksandr Gvozdyk, with the interim WBC light heavyweight title at stake.
Benavidez (28-0, 24 KOs) expressed his excitement about being featured alongside Davis, a prominent figure in the sport.
The 27-year-old Benavidez, known for his knockout power, recently demonstrated his prowess by stopping former two-division champion Demetrius Andrade in November.
“This is a dream come true for me,” Benavidez said.
“I have always wanted to fight on the same card as Gervonta Davis, and now that we’ve set it up, this is going to be the biggest card of the year.”
