Fighting out of Vallejo, California, he is yet to lose in his latest endeavor after fighting to a draw with Amir Mansour in October and defeating Jason Gavern in March last year.

The veteran heavyweight challenged Wladimir Klitschko in 2010 for the heavyweight world title and owns victories over Derric Rossy, Dominick Guinn, Calvin Brock and Alexander Dimitrenko over his long career.
The younger brother of undefeated Jose Benavidez, David has racked up a perfect 13 wins in 13 starts at just 19-years-old. Fighting out of Phoenix, Benavidez picked up four victories via stoppage in 2015 and kicked off his 2016 with a knockout of Kevin Cobbs in January. He returns to take on the New York City product Jackson, who enters this fight the winner of 13 of his last 14 contests.

Gausha's back
We've seen Ward who is an HBO guy get paid similar amounts. Seems to be the norm at HBO for guys that are "their" fighters. Have to imagine that guys like GGG, Ward, Kovalev and any others who are HBO "exclusive" get first crack at being on the schedule and better pay days, while the other guys fight for what is left.
You too 
right now. You paying a nikka doing 97k and a nikka fighting on BET 2 Milly you gonna have to break bank for me. You nikkas even mention ggg and I'm hitting up Showtime for that mini Mayweather deal
