Gilberto Ramirez and David Benavidez lock horns this weekend in a fight that promises to produce fireworks.
Benavidez is set to jump up to cruiserweight for the first time to challenge Ramirez for his WBA and WBO belts in Las Vegas.
The boxing titans made Long Beach’s Hill Street Boxing Gym come to a standstill every time they stepped into the ring to spar in the late 2010s and early 2020s.
And now they will treat a packed-out T-Mobile Arena to a high-octane battle on Saturday night.
Benavidez (31-0) is looking to join an elite group of three-weight world champions after being elevated to full WBC light heavyweight titlist last April, following two stints as WBC super middleweight champion.
Ramirez (48-1) previously held the WBO super middleweight crown before moving up and unifying the cruiserweight division.
