"I've been working very hard in camp and we're going for the knockout this Saturday. My plan is to conquer the welterweight and middleweight divisions. I have something to prove to myself and to the world. I want to be the best in my generation and until I achieve that, I will continue to work hard," Boxing Scene quoted Benavides as saying.
