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.

Harry Aaron / Most Valuable PromotionsAmanda Serrano has announced, via social media, that she will be having her final fight in January 2027.
Perhaps spurred on by the tearful sentimentality and smashing commercial success of longtime rival Katie Taylor’s swansong fight in front of 80,000 fans against Flora Pili at Croke Park in Dublin, Serrano, 50-4-1 (32 KOs), says she plans to do something similar with her legion of fans in her native Puerto Rico.
“The Real Deal” Serrano, 37, is the WBO featherweight champion, as well as a seven-weight world champion and the only Puerto Rican boxer, male or female, to be crowned an undisputed world champion (featherweight) in boxing’s 'four-belt era'.
While Serrano notched her 50th career victory in her last fight, an uncharacteristically shaky majority decision over Lucrecia Anabella Manzur in August, she was unable to break the all-time women’s record for career knockouts (32), which she currently shares with hall-of-famer Christy Martin.
Thus, Serrano’s final career fight will also be her last chance to break the record. Her opponent is yet to be announced.
