Highlights of one of tonight's semi-final matches which are played on a two-leg format. Commentator JOHN MOTSON World Championship Boxing from Las Vegas Wilfred Benitez (Puerto Rico) v Roberto Duran (Panama) for the WBC Light-Middleweight Championship
A clash of the ' super-champions '. Benitez (23) is one of the few men to win world titles at three different weights and he defends the crown he took so savagely from Britain's Maurice Hope. Duran (30) won two world titles before a brief retirement and his nickname ' Stoneface' reflects a grim, uncompromising approach, which appeared to crack when he ' turned his back' and retired in his last fight against ' Sugar' Ray Leonard.
