Twenty-six-year-old Phoenix, Arizona-born David Benavidez will defend his WBC Interim Super Middleweight title from Caleb Plant on March 25th. He won the title last year after knocking out Canadian boxer David Lemieux on May 21. However, it is his first title defense, and he’s not taking it lightly. After all, winning the match, seen as a title eliminator, might ensure a direct passage to the undisputed championship currently held by the Mexican tactical genius Canelo Alvarez.

The pre-match coverage has primarily focussed on the bad blood between Benavidez and Plant. Indeed it lends a helping hand to drumming up the match hype. But away from the match and the contenders, a buzz around the boxers’ personal life, their spouses, and families is making inroads to the front-page news. Moreover, David Benavidez’s wife has steadily supported him as he ascended to the Middleweight ranks.
