WEC 47’s Benavidez says reach disadvantage, long odds no worry in fight with Torres

The WEC 47 main card matchup between Jospeh Benavidez and Miguel Torres
this Saturday night in Ohio will certainly present one of the most
glaring reach discrepancies in a bantamweight fight in recent memory.

The compact, powerful frame of Benavidez stands in stark contrast to the lanky, wiry physique of the former WEC champion Torres.

But at just 5-foot-4, Benavidez said he’s unconcerned with the
challenges Torres’ reach will provide in the matchup. In fact, the Team Alpha
Male fighter said it’s a position he’s quite used to by now.
