Are you ready for a humongous combat sports weekend? If you're really about that life, you watched UFC Perth and Naoya Inoue vs. Junto Nakatani earlier today, regained your strength so that you could also watch David Benavidez vs. Gilberto Ramirez. Maybe I'm the only maniac taking in all three events.
In any case, this Cinco de Mayo clash has the makings of a classic, and I have all the information you need to watch.
The price on this one is hefty.
I get why some boxing fans push back when they see the $79.99 PPV tag, but for a card this loaded I think it’s a fair ask. The fight is available on Amazon Prime Video, DAZN PPV, PPV.com, and traditional cable/satellite providers, while UK fans can grab it for £24.99 or commit to DAZN Ultimate at £22.99 per month.
The free preliminary card streams on Prime Video starting at 5:30 p.m. ET, with the main PPV card kicking off at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT.
Unlike the ring walks for Inoue-Nakatani and UFC Perth, this one takes place at a time most American fight fans are accustomed to.
I expect Benavidez and Ramirez to make their walks at approximately 11:20 p.m. ET / 8:20 p.m. PT / 4:20 a.m. BST (Sunday), with the Resendiz vs. Munguia co-main event going off around 10:20 p.m. ET / 7:20 p.m. PT. As always, ring walk timing depends on how long the earlier fights last, so I’d advise tuning in early.
The card is stacked.
Here is the full lineup for Saturday night:
The fight is scheduled for May 1, 2026, but specific ring walk times have not been provided yet.
The fight will take place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The fight coincides with UFC Perth and Naoya Inoue vs. Junto Nakatani on the same weekend.

The winner walks away as a strong candidate for premier Mexican fighter in the world and earns a clear path to a big-money fight against Dmitry Bivol or even Artur Beterbiev. Benavidez is chasing his third divisional title at 31-0, while Ramirez is defending his unified WBA and WBO cruiserweight crowns and looking to cement his legacy as one of the top Mexican champions of his era.
I think Benavidez is the rightful favorite at -500, but I’d be lying if I said Ramirez at +320 didn't have a real path here. Either way, this one delivers stakes that go well beyond the belts.
