Garcia vs Benn operating order and previews
Primary Occasion
- Ryan Garcia vs Conor Benn, welterweights, 12 rounds, for Garcia’s WBC title
- Scott’s Preview: e, so go learn that when you’re searching for one thing extra in-depth from the 2 of us, however I’ll repeat right here that I believe this can be a wild card matchup. Garcia (25-2, 20 KO) has nice velocity and that must be an enormous benefit, and he’s additionally the higher boxer. There are actual questions on Benn (25-1, 14 KO) making welterweight for the primary time in 4 years, although he was a full lb beneath on Friday. However Garcia can be the way more inconsistent fighter, and Benn has lots of grit and fights with coronary heart. It’s a genuinely intriguing matchup.
Undercard – Primary Card
- Jai Opetaia vs Noel Mikaelian, cruiserweights, 12 rounds, for Opetaia’s Zuffa title
- Scott’s Preview: Mikaelian (28-3, 12 KO) gained’t be defending his WBC title, and the truth that this combat is being pushed by way of is a narrative in and of itself, with Don King Productions sending TKO a cease-and-desist that’s being ignored. Opetaia (30-0, 23 KO) is universally thought-about the No. 1 cruiserweight on the earth — nicely, possibly not universally anymore, since David Benavidez is within the division, however Opetaia’s undoubtedly earned his declare to the spot. And he’s the massive favourite right here for a motive.
- Mark Magsayo vs Andres Cortes, lightweights, 10 rounds
- Scott’s Preview: Magsayo (29-2, 19 KO) is a former featherweight titleholder who’s now 31 and whereas on a five-fight win streak, he hasn’t actually had a severe take a look at since dropping broad to Brandon Figueroa in 2023.Now he’s two divisions larger and going through Cortes (25-o, 13 KO), who moved up from 130 to 135 when he signed with Zuffa and beat Eridson Garcia in a extremely shut combat in April. I believe this has some potential to be attention-grabbing if not a thriller, the 29-year-old Cortes is unbeaten however a bit extra untested than Magsayo, however Magsayo has additionally been so-so at larger ranges. It’s well-matched and each guys actually need this W.
- Da’Mazion Vanhouter vs Raphael Akpejiori, heavyweights, 8 rounds
- Scott’s Preview: Zuffa/TKO are actually insistent on that includes heavyweights regardless of having little or no expertise of their heavyweight ranks. Vanhouter is 12-0 (9 KO) and could possibly be promising, a 21-year-old American who’s 2-0 beneath the Zuffa banner so far. Don’t get loopy, he’s not some blue chipper or something, however he’s in a great place to make some strides if he works exhausting. Akpejiori (19-3, 18 KO) is a 35-year-old Nigerian veteran with an empty report, and it needs to be famous that Arslanbek Makhmudov stopped him in two rounds and Stephan Shaw in a single. He did go eight in his loss to Mourad Aliev in Might, which most likely says extra about Aliev’s stage than Akpejiori’s.
