On November 22, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, multiple world titles will be on the line for a blockbuster event. The event will feature a co-headliner of David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde and Brian Norman Jr. vs Devin Haney.

Teddy Atlas Predicts David Benavidez And Devin Haney To Emerge Victorious On November 22

Speaking on his YouTube channel, The Fight with Teddy Atlas, the legendary trainer previewed the upcoming event in Saudi Arabia.

Breaking down the world light heavyweight title fight between Benavidez (30-0) and Yarde (27-3), Atlas believes that The Mexican Monster will retain his 175-pound title. Although Atlas could see a path to victory for the title challenger if he is able to apply pressure early, he ultimately believes Benavidez will prevail.

"Benavidez, if he gets his way with the body work, the pressure, the volume, the burst, if he gets his way, he will wear down Yarde. At the end of the day, I like Benavidez to win."

Atlas added, "I think youth will be served, and I think Benavidez will have a chance to get rid of Yarde before the night's over."

As for Norman Jr. (28-0) vs Haney (32-0), Atlas does not believe the champion will be able to retain his title. "I'm going to go with Haney. I'm going to say that he's back mentally, and that he's okay physically. He's going to go back to what he always was, a counter-puncher."

The boxing coach believes that Norman Jr. has qualities such as explosiveness, which can make him dangerous, but ultimately feels like Haney's experience could be decisive.

"There's danger all night in this fight. There's danger for Norman to get to Haney. If Norman hurts him the way [Ryan] Garcia did, the night's probably going to be over. He's a better finisher than Garcia; he's a good finisher.

"I know he's the underdog, but I'm going to take Haney." Atlas also believes that the fight will enter the latter stages as 'The Dream' will emerge victorious.
