Benavidez Gambles on Weight Jump to Face Ramirez

Published April 30, 2026 · Updated April 30, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

Two-division champion David Benavidez moves up 25 pounds to challenge unified cruiserweight champion Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez in Las Vegas this Saturday.

Benavidez (31-0, 25 KOs) insists size is not a factor, confident that the added weight will only increase his power and speed. The bout at T-Mobile Arena pits Benavidez against a red-hot Ramirez, who is seeking redemption after a loss to Dmitry Bivol. catcross.biz
