Finally, it's going to happen. The fight has been discussed since 2024, but only now have they finalized the deal. Both fighters have the same style, as we all know in boxing style makes a fight so its volume puncher against volume puncher, expect a slam bang action from start to finish

It has long been discussed, but on a May 2 fight between David Benavidez and Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez is now official.
The men will square off at the T-Mobile Arena as Benavidez (31-0, 25 KOs) is set to move up a division to challenge Ramirez (48-1, 30 KOs), the WBA and WBO cruiserweight champion. It's a bout that has been discussed since 2024, with Ramirez stating last year that a potential clash between the two friends would be a classic.

Both fighters are made for each other; they have Mexican pride. Both have the same build and boxing style, and they are equal in power and agility in the ring.

The fight could go either way, and I will not be surprised if it's close, since they are equal in so many ways. I believe their first press conference will be held tomorrow, so let's see if they are going to be trash-talk, but I don't think they need to do that since the fight itself will sell.

Every Benavidez fight is exciting to watch, and he always dominates the opposition, but this one is different because he is up against his friend, considered one of the top boxers in the heavyweight division.
They are both dominant, but Benavidez will have the edge. I'[m sure he has scouted Zurdo carefully from his loss against Bivol, this is a fight worth watching, especially for the Mexican fans.
