Background
Matchroom Fight Camp returns with three back-to-back weekends (July 31, August 7 and August 14) as game-changing global five-year deal with DAZN begins in the UK.
Benn returns from his blisteringly fast first-round KO win over Samuel Vargas last April to defend his WBA strap to Mexican-American Adrian Granados.
Trained by George Hernandez, the American-born Mexican was a sparring partner to Juan Manuel Marquez. He has a draw on his record with Kermit Cintron, and went the distance with world champions Adrien Broner, Shawn Porter and Robert Easter Jr. His only knockout defeat was at the hands of Danny Garcia (round seven), who famously knocked out Amir Khan in four.
The 31-year-old Californian has already fought twice this year, starting with a second round stoppage win in February in Mexico, followed by a stalemate with once-beaten Jose Luis Sanchez on the undercard of the Andy Ruiz Jr. vs Chris Arreola event in May.
Home fighter Benn has also fought already this year, which took away the disappointment of only fighting once in 2020, which was a very good performance against Sebastian Formella over 10 rounds. His last two outings have been very impressive and he will want to build on his recent form with another stunning win to edge him closer to a world title shot with either Cuban Yordenis Ugas or American Jamal James.
Quotes
Benn: "People didn't believe me when I said I'd knock Vargas out in one round, but I don't see this fight going past six, and that's not because I'm arrogant, it's just because I'm confident in everything I've been Working on, confident in my ability."
Predictions
Tim Rickson,BBN Editor: “Benn gets better and better with every fight and consistently shows fans something different every time. His aptitude and capacity for improvement is quite incredible. Only Danny Garcia has ever managed to stop the durable Granados, but I think Benn will be on a mission to better that, so I'm going for a Benn KO within the first six rounds."
