Former undisputed light-heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev has reacted to fans urging him to face current WBC titleholder David Benavidez.
“You’re all asking me about Benavidez–Yarde. I saw it. Nothing new for me. We could come up with something better, couldn’t we?”
Benavidez stopped Anthony Yarde in the seventh round — his first stoppage victory since moving up to light heavyweight.
After the win, Benavidez announced that his next fight will be against Gilberto Ramirez in cruiserweight, where Ramirez currently holds the WBA and WBO titles.
