“Andrade vs. Benavidez: A 6th-Round Stoppage Shines Spotlight on Benavidez’s Brilliance”
by Oscar Cabrero/ Boxing Contributor
In a thrilling showdown at Mandalay Bay, David Benavidez left the boxing world in awe as he delivered a masterful performance that culminated in a sixth-round stoppage of Demetrius Andrade. With the super middleweight division as the battleground, Benavidez (28-0, 24 KOs) showcased his dominance as he relentlessly poured on the punishment in the sixth round, seeking to finish off a determined Andrade (32-1, 19 KOs). Andrade, a former two-division champion, had shown moments of brilliance, landing effective combinations in Round 6, but the tide of the fight had decisively turned in Benavidez’s favor.
The turning point of the contest came in the closing seconds of Round 4 when Benavidez unleashed a thunderous right-handed haymaker that sent Andrade to the canvas. From that moment on, it was clear that Benavidez was on a mission. He demonstrated his superior skills, relentless pressure, and a determination that left no doubt about his intentions. Benavidez’s post-fight comments reflected his confidence and hunger, as he stated, “Everybody says I’m not this, I’m not that, I’m flat-footed, I have no defense.
David Benavidez gives a very humble, honest answer at his post-fight press conference after stopping Demetrius Andrade: "I don't think I've done enough to make it on the pound-for-pound list, but I will definitely get there."

This guy probably applied one of the best defenses. He’s really good offensively. He could barely even hit me, so I think that says a lot on its own.” With this emphatic victory, Benavidez sent a resounding message to the boxing world, showing that he is a force to be reckoned with and that he’s not here to play games.
His journey in the super middleweight division has just begun, and fans can eagerly anticipate more electrifying performances from the 26-year-old boxing sensation from Seattle. For those who doubted his abilities, this victory was a powerful testament to his talent, determination, and his unwavering commitment to making a mark in the world of boxing.
