David Benavidez wants to go straight to cruiserweight to challenge ‘Zurdo’ Ramirez for his world title but that is not happening next up.
That’s because there has been news today on Gilberto Ramirez next fight.
Gilberto Ramirez and Robin Safar will fight on January 16th next up for the WBO and WBA cruiser titles that Ramirez owns.
