As many expected, David Benavidez (31-0, 25 ko) beat down and stopped the perfectly competent Anthony Yarde in the seventh round in the main event of Ring IV in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. What few expected was that he would then announce a move up to cruiserweight in a challenge to

Crowder Dominantes Diaz, Infuriates Crowd Baltimore’s Dominique Crowder (19-0, 11 ko) may have boxed effectively, but gave the crowd nothing to get excited about outside of a nice jab and good fundamentals, giving a sleepy performance at just the wrong time as the Barclay’s center crowd showered him in boo’s
