David Benavidez has his sights set on the top of the light-heavyweight division and has recently revealed the brand new gym that’ll help him get there.
David Benavidez boasts an undefeated record of 30-0. Nicknamed ‘The Mexican Monster’, Benavidez has won all but six of his fights via stoppage.
Only three men in the past six years have survived Benavidez’s onslaught – Caleb Plant, Oleksandr Gvozdyk, and, most recently, David Morrell.
Benavidez initially had his sights set on a clash with Canelo, who recently punched Mexican influencer Paulo Chavira, at super-middleweight, but has since moved on to the light-heavyweight division after realizing this fight is unlikely to happen.
Benavidez’ father has since revealed the facilities that may well take his son, and many other fighters, to the top of their game.
‘I need this camp in my life’… Fans applaud the new Benavidez fight camp mansion
David Benavidez’s father and trainer, Jose Benavidez Sr., recently revealed his brand new, state-of-the-art fight camp mansion, complete with a hyperbaric chamber, sauna, gym, and accommodation for up to 20 fighters.

The gym has received much praise on social media, with one fan saying:
“This is so smart by Team Benavidez… it’s sets them up to progress Financially after boxing.”
And another expressing:
“I need this camp in my life who I gotta go through to get it”
One other even said that he sees Benavidez’s team becoming “The new American top team.”
David Benavidez to face Dmitry Bivol for the undisputed titles NEXT
Following Dmitry Bivol‘s win over Artur Beterbiev in their much-anticipated rematch, it seems Bivol may opt to defend his titles against Benavidez either before or instead of making the trilogy with Beterbiev.
The Ring reported that negotiations are well underway and that the fight may come to fruition as early as this summer.
Benavidez revealed ahead of Bivol-Beterbiev 2 that he wanted Bivol to win, as Bivol has already beaten Canelo, and Benavidez would like to say he beat the man who beat the man.
Benavidez reportedly dropped Bivol in sparring once, according to a guest on the Joe Rogan podcast.
