The long-awaited fight between David Benavidez and Demetrius Andrade is finally at hand. Interestingly, the result of the fight will decide if Benavidez will be able to fulfill his desire for a Canelo fight or not. Even Jermall Charlo is finally making a return to the ring after 2 years of absence. Although he wanted to face Canelo Alvarez, his brother ended up getting the fight. Therefore, he ended up taking up the fight with Jose Benavidez Jr. The fight card, thus, appears to be stacked with promising fights.

However, as the fight appears to be just a day away, Benavidez’s father, Jose Benavidez Sr. shared a rather interesting post. He shared the pictures of the Benavidez brothers, along with their opponents. In the caption of the post, he shared, “@boxingreport247com The Benavidez brothers, Jermall Charlo and Demetrius Andrade giving back to the Las Vegas community.” It seems that the four boxers took the chance to provide meals and spread joy on Thanksgiving yesterday.
