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.

Former three division world champion Adrien Broner (27-1, 22 KOs) issued an apology to the fans for storming out of the ring after it was officially announced that all three of the official judges scored the fight for Marcos Maidana (35-3, 31 KOs) at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. Broner is now looking to secure a rematch in order to reclaim the WBA welterweight crown that he lost. Broner's post-fight antics angered the local fans, who pelted him with various objects for bolting out of the ring without a post-fight interview.
On the social networks, Broner posted the following: “This is the face of a three time world champion in three different weight divisions. I am a man, and first of all I want to say that I’m sorry for running out on all [of] the fans after my fight. That was wrong of me as a fighter. I want to congratulate Team Chino, and I want to thank everybody that supported the fight. But I am not done.......this is just a minor setback for a major comeback."
