David Benavidez might not get his dream matchup against Canelo Alvarez. However, he did get a brand new, specially modified Lamborghini today. ‘The Mexican Monster’ is tired of waiting for  Canelo to accept his challenge to fight him. So, the undefeated WBC interim super middleweight champion sought out a new opponent.

Earlier last month, sources revealed that the Phoenix native is moving up to the light heavyweight division for a fight against 36-year-old Oleksandr Gvozdyk. That fight may get him a shot at undisputed after Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev fight. However, in the meantime, a clip from ES News today revealed Benavidez’s brand-spanking new Lambo.

David Benavidez likes it wrapped in gold!

ES News and Benavidez seem to have taken a break from their usual interviews as the boxing news YouTube channel was at the venue when Benavidez pulled the curtains off his new Lambo. Wrapped in gold and accented with a bit of black, the car looked like something a Saudi Royal might own. As for the exact model of the car – it’s most likely an SUV.

It was the 2023 Lamborghini Urus, which the Italian automobile manufacturers claim is a Sport Utility Vehicle. It sports a 4.0 L V8 engine and can go from 0 – 100 within 3.5 seconds. The base model of the car comes with a price tag of approximately $233,995 in the USA, but Benvidez’s fully modified beauty will definitely top that easily. While Benavidez is enjoying his new purchase, the man who named him ‘The Mexican Monster’ isn’t happy about Canelo ducking Benavidez.

Canelo Alvarez had always claimed that boxers need to earn a chance to fight him, and for all intents and purposes, Benavidez has done it. So, despite all that, when Canelo decided to cut ties with PBC instead of fighting Benavidez, Mike Tyson wasn’t happy. While speaking to Marca in an interview, Tyson unleashed his frustration.

“What’s wrong with Canelo? Is he afraid of losing? Doesn’t he want to give the fans the fight they want to see? Don’t you want to give the fans the fight they want to see? Do you not respect the legacy of the great Mexican champions who faced the best regardless of the money?… This is a shame for boxing and for Mexico,” said Mike Tyson.

Even though Canelo Alvarez had disappointed David Benavidez, the latter found his own happiness in the luxurious Lamborghini. Even still, fans are eagerly waiting for Benavidez’s next outing in June this year. What did you think of Benavidez’s new Lamborghini?
