Dirrell vs Benavidez FULL FIGHT: September 28, 2019 - PBC on FOX PPV

(September 28, 2019) The Spence vs Porter pay-per-view co-main event saw unbeaten David "El Bandera Roja" Benavidez (22-0, 19 KOs) regain the WBC Super Middleweight World Championship from two-time champion Anthony "The Dog" Dirrell (33-2-1, 24 KOs) with a ninth-round TKO victory.
"Everything just fell in place perfectly," said Benavidez. "From the suspension to all the big fights I've been in. All of that helped me out in this fight. I did not make a mistake or open myself up more than I needed to. I worked behind my jab and got the stoppage. Things are going to get better and get tougher and I'm ready for the challenge."
The fight followed a similar pattern throughout, with Benavidez stalking his opponent looking to unload power shots, while Dirrell circled the ring looking to counter and keep him at bay with his jab.
Benavidez stayed in control through the early rounds, until Dirrell turned the tables momentarily in round four trying to batter Benavidez against the ropes, but he was unable to daze the 22-year-old.
In round six Benavidez broke through with a critical moment in the fight, landing a punch that opened up a cut over Dirrell's right eye. With the blood pouring, the cut was immediately a problem for Dirrell, who now had limited vision to stop the incoming assault.
"He hit me with a clean shot," said Dirrell. "That's my first time ever being cut by a punch. It opened up. There was nothing I could do about it. I couldn't see the whole fight after that. My corner did a good job on it, but I really couldn't see."
Despite having his cut checked by the ringside physician in rounds six, seven and eight, Dirrell was able to use his veteran savvy to stay in the fight. As the fight went to round nine Benavidez increased his offense, slowing Dirrell down enough where he could tee off with power punches in the corner.
As Dirrell tried to navigate away from Benavidez's offense, he began to take take more punishment and looked shaky on his feet. Referee Thomas Taylor officially stopped the fight 1:39 into the round, at the direction of Dirrell's corner. Benavidez ended the fight with a 165 to 94 advantage in punches landed, with the biggest margin coming from his 101 power shots landed to just 41 from Dirrell.
"There are so many emotions coming at me at once," said Benavidez. "We put so much hard work into this training camp. We left home and were away from everything. But I had the dream to become the youngest two-time super middleweight world champion and I made my dreams come true."
"I would have kept going in there," said Dirrell. "I'm not quitting against anybody. Everyone saw I didn't go down. My legs were still strong, but I couldn't do anything about it.
"We're going back to the drawing board. I'm still fighting. We won't end on a loss. You can put anybody in there with me."

[@toolegit7668]

Goosen and Lennox are questionable at times (mainly Goosen) but they were calling this fight correctly. Dirrel did a great job boxing off his back foot. Go watch Benavidez vs Ron Ellis then watch him in this fight. Dirrell did a great job blocking Benavidez punches, making him miss, used his jab well, counter punched well and did good going to Benavidez body. The rounds were very close but I had Dirrel taking most of them because of his scoring jabs to the head and body out pointing Benavidez. Dirrel wasn't really hurting Benavidez and you got the feeling if Benavidez could coral him he could hurt Dirrel. But Dirrel did a good job using his footwork and elusiveness to make it where Benavidez couldn't really get off on him and score points, while also jabbing, countering, and going to Benavidez body. Dirrel actually had a chance to win had he not got cut

[@jessewilliams3068]

Dirrel thanks his coach for stopping the fight and understands why he did it. Even though he said he could have kept going. Wilder's coach stops the fight and he blames the coach and comes up with every excuse in the book. So even though Dirrel lost he still maintained his dignity and respect of the fans. Probably gained more fans.

[@marcusjohnson5420]

Absolutely

[@Nico-yn1vg]

And Wilder was clearly getting the breaks beat off him in that fight. If his corner didn't stop that fight he would have been knocked out like he was in the 3rd fight. That's very likely.

[@lakersuarez]

Dirrell got heart.

[@MrMarco855]

Sometimes the commentators don't see things for what they are. In the 5th round at 21:11, Benavidez began an assault. After it was over Joe Goosen said Benavidez blocked 9 of those 10 punches. After the round they played the same in the slow motion, Goosen said at that point that Dirrell blocked every punch. When Dirrell backed away after the punches were thrown, he opened his mouth wide and stuck out his tongue, his face and eyes told the story. Joe Goosen was wrong; I counted 7 punches that landed clean out of 13 that were thrown, a couple more landed partially. Dirrell was scorched and hurt. When a fighter sticks out his tongue it's almost always due to getting hit, not the opposite as Goosen claimed. He said that Dirrell's facial expression and sticking out his tongue was his way of telling Benavidez that he blocked the punches. Benavidez' hands are fast, you have to watch closely. Near the end of that volley of punches, Benavidez landed 4 lefts in a row. Before that he landed a jab to start off with, then a huge right hook around Dirrell's gloves that was the best shot in the flurry. He also landed a good left to the body near the end of the sequence and a few others in between. Watch in slow motion and you'll see what happened. Goosen might be a good trainer but he missed that series. Dirrell looked and acted differently for the remainder of that round. His face was very red, his eyes were puffed up and he stopped goofing around. He was shook. The round ended with a jolting right by Benavidez. I think that Dirrell lost most of whatever he brought during that 5th round.

I know Plant is the underdog, I wont be surprise if Plant shocks the world and beats Benavidez.

[@robertosantoyo7655]

Great fight it was a close fight 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@JulioRodriguez-sv7bb]

Benavidez too strong and too young for Anthony Direll

[@jmoney95_57]

Benavidez only fought 2 rounds prior to this fight in a year and a half SHESSH

[@ismaelzavala5105]

Muy buena pelea

[@danielmickelsen2654]

LOL, they listed Dirrell taller than Benavidez, you can see that Benavidez is way taller than Drirell.

[@timmcdowell6027]

[@kevincano96]

Hey !

[@Florida_Driven]

That very first punch was blocked before Dirrel even threw it. I knew this was going to be a hell of a fight.

[@humonguscok747]

Dirrel earned my respect on how he took this loss. 👍

[@KGDRAWROF]

The announcers hung in there even after the fight was stopped.

[@joshisanonymous]

I really would've like dto see how that went had Dirrell not gotten cut. It felt like a very close fight otherwise.

[@Enigmaprince]

12:23 that punch reminds me of the crucial punch Billy Joe missed against Canelo that was the decisive factor. Its funny how much similarity there is between those two sequences. Great executed by both Benavides and Canelo. Would be a dream fight to see them matched up against eachother

[@lorysanmartinez5670]

Nunca Sele pararía Benavides al canelo como lo ase con este chaval lo Desinfla canelo los golpes del canelo son letales con un auto estima muy cabron

[@jrlongoria680]

Benavides needs to develop his body and defense skills he could become great.

[@Enigmaprince]

@@jrlongoria680 True but he makes up with having tremendous boxing skills and precision :-) and will to win

I think it's as simple as Dirrell never figured out that standing still & guarding against Benavidez is a losing game. I see Benavidez relies on juggernaut tactics, kinda just keeps walking to you, blocks against you (doesn't dodge), and then only shoots bombs at you (without much mind for counters) - and if you stand still to guard, he'll wail on you harder. Dirrell's body shots and Ali-esque tactics were working, but standing still to guard sabotaged any & all progress for him. And he would have done well attempting First Strikes, cuz we know Benavidez doesn't feint or try to trick you, he's going to throw a bomb or two, like every time. 🧐🧐🧐

[@losertherapy244]

On top of that, Dirrell could have used more practice with "tying up" his opponent. He could have binge rewatched Floyd v Corrales, and Joshu v Ruiz 2 over and over. You can see how amazing Floyd is at remain active like a fiend for points constantly attacking more than you see Dirrell and Joshua doing, and he stays sharp keeping full attention on distance and appropriate moments to thoroughly tie up Corrales.
