Unbeaten “Mexican Monster” David Benavidez has loads of work to do at mild heavyweight, his upcoming battle with David Morell an actual battle to contemplate, and Benavidez then goals to battle the Artur Beterbiev-Dmitry Bivol winner for all of the 175 pound marbles. However Benavidez can also be vastly pumped up and excited a couple of doable battle between himself and reigning WBA/WBO cruiserweight champion Gilberto Ramirez.
David Benavidez Snr has spoken about this battle as a chance for down the street, if for instance, Benavidez can not for no matter purpose lock in a battle with the Bivol-Beterbiev winner. And now, in talking with DAZN Information, 27 yr outdated Benavidez has spoken about what an excellent battle it could possibly be.
“That’s positively a battle that we’re eyeing and if we may get that battle tomorrow, we’d go and battle that battle tomorrow,” Benavidez stated of a battle with Zurdo. “I do know Zurdo Ramirez actual effectively and I’m truly happy with him, too, as a result of he’s the unified champ at 200 kilos. He received two titles, he achieved lots. I’ve recognized him for a very long time, so it makes me actually proud to be his pal and work with him. So I really feel like, on the finish of the day, this might presumably be one of many largest fights in cruiserweight historical past. You understand, two Mexicans going at it. It’d positively be an excellent battle.”
It will certainly. We followers have been handled to some really epic fights between Mexican ring warriors through the years, but the all-Mexican classics have all the time taken place within the decrease weight divisions. By no means have two large guys from Mexico rumbled in mesmerising, epic vogue. This might undoubtedly change if Benavidez, 29-0(24) and Ramirez, 47-1(30) put their friendship apart for one evening and fought one another. However in the case of who on earth would win, effectively, that’s a tricky query with this one.
33 yr outdated Ramirez, actually will need to have been killing himself to make 175 kilos, not to mention 168 the place he was a world champion, and the cruiserweight division does look to be his preferrred weight class. Benavidez too is a giant, large dude, and it’s totally sensible for him to be taking a look at transferring as much as 200 kilos. However to repeat, first comes that enterprise to cope with at mild heavyweight. However down the street, maybe as quickly as subsequent yr, Benavidez may maybe be swapping punches with Ramirez. And this potential battle has FOTY written throughout it.
