SHO Championship Boxing will play host to a boxing event on Friday, July 29. TGB Promotions will have a jam-packed night of 11 fights. The main card will start at 9 p.m. ET and feature the final three fights of the evening. The main event of the night will feature Danny Garcia taking on Jose Benavidez Jr. in a junior middleweight bout.
Garcia has been away from boxing for over a year and a half. He last competed in December of 2020 when he lost by unanimous decision to Errol Spence Jr. Garcia is back, and he is fighting at a new weight class. He has a career record of 36-3 with 21 knockouts to his credit. Garcia enters as the heavy favorite at DraftKings Sportsbook with -800 odds.
Benavidez Jr. enters with a 27-1-1 record with 18 knockouts. His most recent fight against Francisco Emanuel Torres was ruled a majority decision draw in November 2021. Before that, he was knocked out in the 12th round by Terence Crawford in October of 2018. With one fight in nearly four years, it will be interesting to see what Benavidez Jr. has left in the tank. DraftKings Sportsbook isn’t predicting a win in his return as he enters as the heavy underdog with +500 odds.
