David Benavidez vs. Zurdo Ramirez fight predictions, odds, undercard, start time, where to watch and PPV price

Now, Benavidez looks for another new challenge as he moves to cruiserweight for the first time in his career to face Ramirez.

Ramirez is also a former super middleweight champion, having won the WBO title in April 2016 and successfully defending the belt five times before a move to light heavyweight.

Ramirez eventually earned a shot at light heavyweight gold, but lost to Dmitry Bivol in their bout for the WBA title.

A move to cruiserweight was next, and Ramirez picked up the WBA title with a win over Arsen Goulamirian and added the WBO title win a victory against Chris Billam-Smith. Ramirez has since defended his unified titles once, defeating Yuniel Dorticos.

Let's take a closer look at the rest of the undercard for Saturday night in Las Vegas along with how you can watch the fights before getting to a prediction and expert pick on the main event below.

Prediction

There are interesting questions coming into this fight, including whether Benavidez's power will translate to the 200-pound division. At light heavyweight, Benavidez didn't seem to have the same level of pop he'd shown at super middleweight and also fatigued a bit in his first two fights at the weight. However, everything seemed to come together against Yarde, and he looked much like the Benavidez boxing fans had become accustomed to seeing.

Ramirez is a solid cruiserweight, but is unspectacular in most aspects of his game. Assuming Benavidez is able to fight to the level of talent he has shown throughout his career, there's no reason to think he won't be able to become a unified champion for the first time in his career.
