David Benavidez delivered a career-defining performance in Las Vegas, defeating “Zurdo” Ramirez.

Benavidez fought “Zurdo” in the cruiserweight division at T-Mobile Arena.

From the first round it was clear that “Mexican Monster” he operated on a different level than his man.

Most of the fight was non-stop, with neither fighter backing down and instead choosing to fight in the pocket.

Benavidez injured Ramirez after a tackle at the end of the second round.

This set the pace for the remaining rounds. Benavidez hurt “Zurdo” again in the third period, and he responded well, but it was obvious that the defending champion wasn’t able to take much more of the punches that he had earlier in the fight.

In the fourth round, Ramirez was forced to kneel for the first time in 15 years, and Benavidez finished the round in style.

The fight will end in the sixth round, and Benavidez will perform a crazy combination that will leave Ramirez lying on the floor and holding his eye. The master couldn’t count.

After the victory, Benavidez challenged Canelo Alvarez.

The fight was the final bell of a contest in which Munguia outclassed his fighter, who was fighting for the first time since a shock victory over Caleb Plant.

All three judges scored in favor of Munguia by majority, unanimous decision, with the cards reading: 117-111, 119-109, 120-108.
