This April 29 Nassau Colosseum card is shaping up to be pretty good

Adonis Stevenson vs Monaghan
Joe Smith Jr vs TBA
Benevidez vs Porky Medina

Not sure why its not just for the WBC belt, since its vacant.




EDIT: NM its going to compete with the April 29 card

Anthony Dirrel and Callum Smith are the 2 highest rated contenders for the WBC title.
 
Considering his recent form, Medina is quite the step up fight for a 20 year old. Benavidez isn't being eased along.

Is Benavidez special?

Medina gave De Gale a very hard time and ended the J'Leon Love hype, in short, Medina is the worst matchup for any 20 yr old unless theyre special

It's always tough to say before they face real competition. At the very least he's clearly talented (really nice punch selection, heavy hands, big for the weight, not all that easy to hit). He's been getting hype for awhile now and there have been sparring stories about him going back to when he was 16-17 years old, but it's hard to know how good he is before he steps up. Considering both men's styles, this could actually be a tremendous fight. If he walks through Medina, we very well could have a genuine 20 year old star.

i felt medina could have won that if he got going earlier in the fight; he waited to long to exclusively attack the body and sell out w/aggression
