David Benavidez Wins Impressively/Recap Of Showtime PPV And More | Fight Freaks Unite Recap Podcast

A tremendous main event performance by David Benavidez for the Showtime/PBC pay per view fight card leads our latest edition of the "Fight Freaks Unite Recap Podcast."Host T.J. Rives and insider Dan Rafael of BigFightWeekend.com are back to talk Benavidez punishing Caleb Plant in the late stages of their 168 lb. showdown in Las Vegas. Why did he take the bout over at the midway point? What was up with referee Kenny Bayless and most importantly, what does Dan think on a possible Benavidez bout with Canelo for later in 2023?Dan also breaks down the controversial Chris Colbert-Jose Valenzuela undercard bout that seemed to be a decision robbery against Valenzuela in the 10 rounder. This is especially when Valenzuela dropped and badly hurt Colbert in the first round and hurt him on three or four other occasions in the bout.Dan also recaps the rest of the Benavidez-Plant undercard and the guys spend a few minutes talking about the heart warming/awful situation with Cody Crowley and the suicide of his father within the last year. Crowley handled it well enough to beat Abel Ramos on the ppv card.Dan also has some thoughts on Jose Ramirez winning the main event of ESPN/Top Rank in his hometown of Fresno, CA. He beat up on Richard Commey before stopping him late. And, will we see Ramirez finally battle WBC 140 lb. champ Regis Prograis later this year?Dan has some fight news and some nostalgia on the anniversary of the passing of noted boxing historian and author Bert Sugar, as well.It's all on the "Fight Freaks Unite Recap" Podcast and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google, etc.!!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/big-fight-weekend/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
