David Benavidez has no shortage of HUGE fights on his radar. In an exclusive interview with BoxingScene, Jose Benavidez Sr. makes it clear that David still wants the biggest names at 175lbs including Dmitry Bivol and Artur Beterbiev. Benavidez has previously said those are two fights he wants to make as he pursues more titles and major challenges. But there’s another name that could make things very interesting: Andy Ruiz Jr. Jose discusses the possibility of an all-Mexican showdown between Benavidez and the former heavyweight champion, along with David’s plans across multiple divisions. And with a potential Jai Opetaia showdown also building after the pair came face-to-face following Opetaia’s latest victory, Benavidez has some massive options ahead.

In a stunning upset on the undercard to Felix Trinidad-Roy Jones at New York's Madison Square Garden, Alex Bunema (27-9-2, 15KOs) scored a tenth-round knockout over former junior middleweight champion Roman Karmazin (36-3-1, 23KOs).
After Karmazin built a decent lead over six-rounds, Bunema used right hands to work his way into the fight and began to take over in the seventh and eight rounds. In the ninth, Bunema stunned Karmazin twice with hard rights.
The end came in the tenth when a left hook put Karmazin down. He made it to his feet, but Bunema went after him with hard rights that sent him down for the second time and he was almost out cold on the mat as the ref stopped the fight.
