His signature body shots and a relentless barrage of hooks and uppercuts slowly but surely began to break down Yarde’s defenses. The crowd was on its feet, witnessing a masterclass in controlled aggression.
The end came suddenly, yet inevitably. After a blistering exchange that saw Benavidez unleash a flurry of unanswered blows, the referee had no choice but to step in, saving Yarde from further punishment. It was a brutal, decisive stoppage that left no doubt about Benavidez’s dominance and the frightening power he possesses. This wasn’t just a win; it was a reaffirmation of why so many consider him the boogeyman of the super middleweight division. He defended his WBC title with the ferocity of a champion who believes he’s destined for undisputed glory.
