Joseph Benavidez doesn't need a title on the line to tell him that Saturday's bantamweight bout against former champion Miguel Torres at WEC 47 in Columbus, Ohio, will be the biggest fight of his career.

"I've been waiting for this fight since I got into the WEC," the Team Alpha Male fighter told Sherdog.com in this exclusive video. "This is a title fight for me."

The 25-year-old Benavidez explained what it will take to best the rangy, aggressive Torres in what he believes will be one of the greatest tests of his young career.
