Ryan Garcia Vs. Conor Benn Is Over — Here Are The Scorecards And Biggest Highlights
Ryan Garcia made 145.5 pounds and Conor Benn 146 pounds at weigh-ins, with Oscar De La Hoya predicting a knockout finish.
On Saturday, September 12, 2026, WBC welterweight champion Ryan Garcia defends his title against challenger Conor Benn at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Both boxers successfully made the 147-pound limit on Friday, though Benn described his weight cut as "brutal" and admitted he was "dragged down to the pits of hell" to reach 146 pounds.
Promoter Oscar De La Hoya expects a knockout, citing concerns the weight cut will deplete Benn, while Zab Judah predicted "It's safe to say I believe it's gonna end in a knockout."
If Benn defeats Garcia, he intends to vacate the belt immediately and move up in weight; a successful defense opens Garcia's path to unifications against Teofimo Lopez and Devin Haney.
Preliminary action begins at 5 p.m. ET, with a cruiserweight co-feature between Jai Opetaia and Noel Mikaelian preceding main event ring walks expected around 11 p.m. ET.
