Undefeated light heavyweight stars David “El Monstro” Benavidez and David Morell Jr. continued their heated war of words at Thursday’s final press conference before they settle their rivalry in the ring this Saturday, February 1 headlining a PBC Pay-Per-View event on Prime Video from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

David Benavidez: “We’re coming with our full energy, unlike him. He’s nervous and he’s not ready. He looks scared right now. When you step into that ring this Saturday, that’s ‘El Monstro’s’ world, and you’re going to see exactly what I’m made of….I’m going in there to try to hurt him in every single round. I have the strongest fighting spirit in all of boxing and you’re going to see what ‘El Monstro’ is made of on Saturday.”

David Morrell Jr: “I wanted to fight Benavidez because I wanted to end all this ‘Monster’ stuff. Everyone he’s fought so far has either been on the verge of retirement or had to come up or come down in weight. I want to end the myth that he’s a monster…I’m going to bust him up. You don’t disrespect people like this in boxing. You’re gonna see what I do to you on Saturday.”
