WBC Welterweight Showdown
Last night’s Zuffa Boxing/Paramount +/DAZN Main Event between WBC Welterweight Champion Ryan “King Ry” Garcia (26-2, 21 Kos) and mandatory challenger Conor “The Destroyer” Benn (25-2, 14 Kos), was a showcase type of an event where the Champion secured the first defense of his WBC Title in a very impressive fashion at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Many anticipated this bout to be a very competitive night of action but what transpired was the complete opposite. Ryan waked it like he talked it and took “The Destroyer” apart by negating Conor’s aggressive style of fighting with a stiff and fast jab landing at will.
Conor felt the power of that jab right away but refused to respect it and continued to press the action in an aggressive manner but paid dearly for it by his own lack of awareness when he got dropped by a heavy overhand right in the second round. Conor bounced back to his feet after the standing 8 count but was clearly not ready for the unanswered onslaught, some misses with some landed coming his way, which then prompted the referee to stop the bout saving Conor from further unnecessary punishment.
Some will say this bout was stopped prematurely but truth be told, the inevitable was near. This version of Conor (possibly drained from a mean weight cut) was absolutely no match for “King Ry” who was stronger, faster and shooting from all cylinders on the night.
Conor talked a good game on the build-up to the fight but fell miserably short on the night it counted most. Real Talk! With this win Ryan successfully defended his WBC Welterweight Title and his now setting his eyes on a unification bout with newly crowned WBA Super Welterweight Champion Teofimo Lopez.
Until then, congratulations Ryan on a great win!

Cruiserweight Showdown
Last night’s Zuffa Boxing/Paramount +/DAZN Co-Main Event between Ring Magazine/Zuffa Boxing Cruiserweight Champion Jai Opetaia (31-0, 24 Kos) and WBC Cruiserweight Champion Noel Mikaelian (28-4, 12 Kos) was quite interesting at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Noel, known for his durability and good boxing mind, came into this bout with the utmost confidence and stood his ground as best he could but quickly found out that there are levels to this boxing sh*t and when entering that squared circle opposite of Jai Opetaia, you are bound to find out the hard way.
Jai is rated as the best in the Cruiserweight Division. His skill set does the talking inside that squared circle. That being said, Jai boxed and broke down Noel round by round. Noel did his best to survive and fought back gracefully but eventually succumbed at the hands of the superior combatant. Jai was simply too good and too strong to deterred inside that squared circle.
The pace the combatants were fighting at was simply too much for Noel to keep up with. Noel’s defence was suffering for it and cost him dearly in the ninth round as he got pressed with a barrage of well-placed punches that dropped him into the ropes forcing a standing 8 count where the referee felt Noel hadn’t regained enough of his senses to continue and decided to waive the bout at the 1:30 mark of the round.
With this win, Jai administered Noel his first TKO of his career, retained his Ring Magazine/Zuffa Boxing Cruiserweight Championship Titles but was robbed of receiving Noel’s WBC Cruiserweight Title due to the politics of the sanctioning body. Unbelievable!
Only time will tell who will be the last man standing above the Cruiserweight Division when Jai Opetaia and David Benavidez finally collide, but until then, congratulations Jai on another impressive win.

Junior Welterweight Showdown
Katie Taylor (26-1, 6 Kos) graced the inside of the squared circle for the last time last night in front of her admiring fans where she headlined the first boxing event at Dublin’s historical Croke Park since Muhammad Ali fought Al “Blue” Lewis on July 19, 1972.
Katie put her Unified Junior Welterweight IBF/WBA/WBO/Ring magazine Championship Titles on the line one last time against a formidable and younger Lioness Flora Pili (12-1, 2 Kos) to close out her career with a proper defense of her well-earned jewels.
Katie refused to take an easy fight on her way out. By doing so, she gifted the opportunity to a combatant who respected her dearly but wanted to become Champion by any means necessary.
With this great chance now given to her, Flora pressed the action as best she could from the first bell and attempted to bring the “HEAT” to Katie from every corner possible. Flora kept it interesting for the first few rounds but quickly found out that there are levels to this boxing sh*t and going rounds with one of the best in the game is a challenge in itself.
That being said, Katie did not disappoint her adoring fans. Katie, at 40 years old, still looked as sharp as ever, light on her feet with a fast and busy jab, troubling Flora who had no answer to deter the Champ from having her way with her inside that squared circle.
Nevertheless, Flora did hold her own but was simply outmatched by a seasoned veteran in the game. After 10 rounds of action, the Judges at hand scored it 100-90, 100-90 and 98-91, unanimously for Katie Taylor.
With this win on this historical night of boxing, Katie Taylor retained her Unified Junior Welterweight IBF/WBA/WBO/Ring Magazine Championship Titles and picked up the vacant WBC Junior Welterweight Title, once again re-crowning her as the Undisputed Junior Welterweight Champion of the World.
Gracefully bowing out as a Three-Time Undisputed Champion of the World in front of 83,000 adoring fans in the building at Dublin’s historical Croke Park, is the perfect moment to say goodbye.
Well done, Champ! You’ve had a great career – now enjoy your retirement.
