Main event: David Benavidez secured a unanimous decision win over David Morrell

David Benavidez claimed a dominant victory over David Morrell in their highly anticipated 12-round bout at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday night.

Although the scorecards favored Benavidez, the contest was closer than the judges' assessments indicated. Morrell dropped Benavidez in the 11th round with a powerful right hand, but a controversial point deduction for Morrell for a post-bell punch tilted the fight further in Benavidez's favor.

Despite fatigue in the championship rounds, Fulton’s precise shots and movement were enough to secure the win, while Figueroa’s power wasn’t enough to change the course of the fight.
