'Monster' Xu back on the prowl

After over a year without hunting, the bloodthirsty "Monster" is finally back on the prowl.

Xu Can, China's former featherweight world champion known as the "Monster", has recovered from injury and will fight Mexico's Brandon Benitez in a rescheduled bout on Oct 7 in Florida as he builds toward another title challenge.

The fight between Xu and Benitez was originally supposed to take place on May 20 but was postponed after Xu sustained a rib fracture in training about two weeks before the scheduled bout.
