David Benavidez is considering two names after Zurdo Ramirez

David Benavidez is already looking to the future ahead of next week’s showdown with Zurdo Ramirez.
Benavidez challenges Zurdo for his unified WBO and WBA cruiserweight world titles next Saturday at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, live on DAZN pay-per-view.
“The Mexican Monster” is moving up from lightweight heavyweight, where he holds the WBC crown, in a bid to become a three-division world champion.
An undisputed 175-pound title fight with Dmitry Bivol has so far eluded the undefeated 29-year-old, but he insists he will return to the weight class after the Ramirez fight in an attempt to lure Bivol to fight him.
“My plan wasn’t just to abandon the lightweight heavyweight division,” Benavidez said Ariel Helwani show.
“My plan was this [to] come up, win two titles, come back and make this fight with me and Bivol even bigger.
“My dream is to become unified champion.
“It would be wise for me to go back downstairs.”
Bivol, the holder of the remaining IBF, WBA and WBO belts, will defend his IBF title against mandatory challenger Michael Eifert on May 30 in Russia.
The 35-year-old won the undisputed crown, among others revenge victory over Artur Beterbiev in his last appearance last February.
The Russian gave up the WBC belt, which Benavidez currently holds, in pursuit of a third meeting with Beterbiev, which ultimately did not take place.

Benavidez, who stopped Anthony Yarde in Riyad in November, is also hoping to fight former undisputed lightweight heavyweight champion Beterbiev, who hasn’t fought since his only professional loss to Bivol.
“After this fight [against Bivol] when I win the titles,” he added.
“I’m going to fight Beterbiev.
“I’m probably most excited about Beterbiev.

“These are two monsters heading on a collision course.
“Beterbiev was a bogeyman for a long, long, long time.
“Being the monster I am, I have to go in there and get rid of the bogeyman.”

Ryan Garcia denies receiving a contract to fight Conor Benn

Ryan Garcia insists he was not given a contract to fight Conor Benn, despite the Briton insisting he signed a contract for the fight.
Garcia and Benn are reportedly in talks for a welterweight world title clash in Las Vegas in August.
Benn is the number one contender for the American’s WBC crown, which he won by unanimous decision over Mario Barrios in February.
On Wednesday, Benn publicly called on his rival to sign the end of the deal.
“Sign the contract @RyanGarcia,” the 29-year-old wrote X.
“King Ry” sharply criticized “The Destroyer”, claiming that he was not given a contract to sign.
The 27-year-old wrote further X: “If I actually had a contract, Conor, I would sign it as soon as one of these hands touches your jaw on fight night.”
Benn has not broken the 147-pound limit since 2022, although he has signaled his intention to return to welterweight, and his last fight was at 150 pounds.

The player from Ilford said goodbye to former two-time world champion, Regis Prograis unanimous decision at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier this month.
Benn fought at middleweight in his two fights, then fought Prograis in two hard-fought matches against Chris Eubank Jr.
Prior to his victory over Porgrais, the 29-year-old controversially left former promotional team Matchroom to join Zuffa Boxing on a one-fight deal reportedly worth $15 million.

Benn resigned last week from the company formed by UFC president Dana White as part of a five-fight contract.
“I just signed a fresh multi-fight contract, which I am very joyful with,” he said.
“Our visions are consistent.
If I actually had a contract, Conor, I would sign it as soon as one of those hands touched your jaw on fight night.
— RYAN GARCIA (@RyanGarcia) April 22, 2026
“Our goal remains the same, which is to win the world title, but more importantly, to give people the fight they want.
“Give people mega fights.”

Lawrence Okolie failed a drug test, meaning the entire Paris event was canceled due to fight card being thrown out
Published

Queensberry Promotions has confirmed that the fight headlined by Lawrence Okolie has been canceled due to a failed drug test. The 33-year-old was scheduled to fight Olympic gold medalist Tony Yoka in Paris on Saturday, but the fight was canceled after the heavyweight fighter presented an unfavorable assessment by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association (VADA).
Okolie wanted to stun the Frenchman on home soil to secure three heavyweight victories and push him towards contention for world titles. However, days before the event, the fight was forced to be canceled due to test results, leading to the entire card being scrapped. “The Sauce” has vowed to clear its name and says it will fully cooperate with the investigation following the news that broke on Tuesday (April 21).
As a result of this arrangement, the co-main event between Bakary Samake and Ermal Hadribeaj was also canceled. In a statement, the boxing organization said: “For reasons beyond our control, Queensberry and DAZN have regretfully decided to cancel the gala in Paris scheduled for Saturday.”
Okolie has won each of his last four fights after losing to Chris Billiam-Smith in a British superfight at the Vitality Stadium, home of Premier League side Bournemouth. The 33-year-old posted on Instagram following the news regarding his fight, wishing to deny any foul play.
He said: “Before anyone starts imagining the worst, after last year’s biceps injury, I suffered an elbow injury on the same arm during this camp. I underwent treatment and now here we are. I really hope common sense prevails.”
“I will of course cooperate fully with all relevant authorities and I am confident that any investigation will clear my name. I will not be making any further comments at this time. Thank you for all your support and I will see you soon.”
Okolie had several of the division’s top fighters in his sights after a knockout victory over Ebenezer Tetteh in December, citing feared prospect Moses Itauma. The Sauce defeated Ghanian in two rounds, after knocking out and firing shots at the 21-year-old.
Frank Warren confirmed to talkSPORT that Okolie has been suspended following unfavorable findings. It is said that attempts were made to find a replacement, but a deal could not be reached in the days before the fight.
The promoter said: “Under the circumstances he is suspended immediately. He will face a hearing when the hearing is called. This is very unsatisfactory.”
