Tonight, the fight capital of the world, Las Vegas, plays host to another massive event! Ryan Garcia is defending the WBC Welterweight Championship against Conor Benn in one of the most anticipated fights of the year. In the co-main event, Jai Opetaia puts his Zuffa and Ring Magazine Cruiserweight titles on the line against current WBC Champion Noel Mikaelian. This is a Ring Magazine event co-promoted by Zuffa Boxing and Golden Boy Promotions.
Below is everything you need to know about today’s boxing card headlined by Ryan Garcia vs. Conor Benn, including the start time, how to watch, location, and full card.
Garcia, 28, is 25-2 with 20 wins by knockout in his career. The confident, cocky superstar Garcia won the WBC Welterweight title against Mario Barrios in his last fight nearly seven months ago. After his win was overturned against Devin Haney and he lost to Rolly Romero, we have seen a new and improved version of Garcia. But now, Garcia has his toughest test in quite some time with the Englishman, Benn.
Benn is 25-1 with 14 knockouts, and last beat his arch rival Chris Eubank Jr. and Regis Prograis. With two of the best fighters in the world in the prime of their career, a memorable and entertaining showdown should occur. On DraftKings Sportsbook, Garcia is a -330 favorite with Benn as a +250 underdog.
Jai Opetaia made his Zuffa Boxing debut in March and picked up a unanimous decision win over Brandon Glanton. Opetaia is 30-0 with 23 knockouts and faces fellow title holder Noel Mikaelian on this card. Mikaelian, 28-3, is coming off a win against Badou Jack in December 2025. Even though both are champions, Opetaia is a massive -1400 favorite with Mikaelian as a +700 underdog in this contest.
