PHOENIX BOXER MISSES WEIGHT, VACATES TITTLE

 Phoenix WBC Super Middleweight Champion David Benavidez (22-0, 19 KO's) will fight Roamer Alexis Angulo (26-1, 22 KO's) tomorrow night in Connecticut.  The fight was set to be in defense of Benavidez tittle, but that won't be the case tomorrow when the two square off in the ring.


Benavidez weighed in 2.8 pounds over weight.  The fight will still go on, but the consequences for Benavidez are severe.  He is now forced to vacant his tittle, meaning even with a win he will leave the ring with the tittle.  If Angulo wins he will be the new champion.


The fight is going to be a good fight between two very talented boxers.  Benavidez has a lot to prove now.  He is too good of a boxer to let this affect his career.  He will be fighting for another tittle very soon.  The fight will be on ShoTime.
