David Benavidez delivered a dominant performance, stopping Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez by TKO in the sixth round to claim the WBA and WBO cruiserweight belts, ESPN reported. A live‑updates feed from ESPN noted the title wins but did not mention Benavidez’s post‑fight challenge to Canelo Álvarez and Dmitry Bivol, which was highlighted in the feature article. The core result is consistent across both reports, differing only in the added commentary about future opponents.
