Ruiz spoke out about Benavides' win over Gvozdyk

Former world heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jr. shared his impressions of David Benavides' victory over Oleksandr Gvozdyk in a fight for the interim WBC light heavyweight title.

"I think I've been watching this fight since the fourth round. But Benavides did his thing. His opponent was strong, he's able to hold his jab, but Benavides took the fight well.

What should Benavides do - stay at welterweight or return to middleweight for a fight with Canelo? I think either way would be great. It was a good experience for him, a good fight, a difficult opponent. But David did his thing. The main thing is that he won," said Ruiz.

Recall that on June 15, Benavides defeated Gvozdik by unanimous decision of judges in the consonant event of the evening of boxing in Las Vegas.
