The Ring Magazine is putting on its fourth boxing event on Saturday, November 22, at the ANB Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This fight is stacked with four title fights that are all Main event-worthy bouts. David Benavidez, the undefeated contender, is facing Anthony Yarde for the WBC Light Heavyweight title.
Benavidez, the WBC Interim Champion, has a chance to win his first world title against Yarde. When you talk about the best boxers under the age of 30, Benavidez’s name is one of the first that comes to mind. That is because, at 28 years old, he has put together an impressive resume, with a perfect 30-0 record and 24 knockouts. Benavidez is coming off a unanimous decision victory against David Morell. Yarde has three career defeats but has won four consecutive contests since his last loss to Artur Beterbiev.
On DraftKings Sportsbook, Benavidez is the second largest favorite on this main card at -900, with Yarde being a +550 underdog. The co-main event is a WBO Welterweight title bout between two of the best undefeated fighters, Brian Norman Jr. and Devin Haney. Seeing Devin “The Dream” Haney not in the Main Event seemed impossible before. But Turki Al-Sheikh has put together one of the greatest boxing cards of the year featuring multiple title fights.
It isn’t often that two undefeated rising stars face each other this early in their careers. Norman is 28-0 with Haney being 32-0. This is an actual 50-50 fight and is a fantastic matchup on paper. Both of these fighters are already incredible fighters, but the winner of this matchup instantly becomes a superstar and one of the best pound-for-pound boxers. Norman and Haney are both -110 to win this contest.
Another showdown between undefeated fighters is Abdullah Mason vs. Sam Noakes for the WBO Lightweight title. Mason is 19-0 with 17 knockouts while only being 21 years old. Noakes enters this contest 17-0 with 15 knockouts in his career. Mason is -350 with Noakes being a +260 underdog in this bout.
Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez vs. Fernando Martinez is the first of four title fights taking place on this card. Rodriguez is 22-0 with 15 knockouts at 25 years old, with Martinez also having a perfect record at 18-0. “Bam” has finished his previous four opponents. In this contest, Rodriguez is a -1100 favorite with Martinez being a +650 on DraftKings Sportsbook.
