On a historic night that has left the boxing world in shock, **David Benavidez** achieved the unthinkable by knocking out **Canelo Alvarez** in just **5 rounds**, taking away his title and leaving the Mexican in a vulnerable situation like never before. The champion, known for his strength and endurance, collapsed in the ring after a devastating blow, remaining unconscious for more than three minutes, which unleashed chaos in the place and left fans wondering if this was really the end of an era.

From the first round, **David Benavidez** showed his imposing physique and aggressive fighting style, pressuring Canelo Alvarez in a way that few expected. Even though Canelo started with his usual defensive technique and precise counterpunches, Benavidez quickly made the difference with his impressive reach and punching power.

“As much respect as I have for Canelo, I knew this day was coming. I’m here to take the place I’ve always believed belongs to me,” Benavidez said after the fight, with a confidence that reflected the perfect preparation he had had for this fight.

Canelo, known for his ability to absorb punches, could not withstand the pressure from Benavidez. In the fifth round, a devastating body shot followed by an uppercut that reached Alvarez’s jaw was enough to knock him down in a resounding fashion.

Canelo Álvarez’s fall was brutal. The blow that Benavidez dealt him was so strong that Álvarez immediately lost his balance and fell to the ground with force, unable to react to the blow. The crowd fell into absolute silence, while the referees rushed to count the seconds.

What happened next was even more shocking. Canelo lay in the ring for over three minutes, as the medical team and referees tried to revive him. The fans couldn’t believe what they were seeing, and the tension in the air was palpable. Finally, Canelo began to move slowly, getting up with difficulty, but still looking disoriented and visibly shaken.

What followed was absolute chaos inside the venue. The defeat of Canelo Alvarez, considered by many to be the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, left everyone stunned. Fans could not believe what they had just witnessed. Many stood up from their seats, some in a state of disbelief, while others began chanting the name of **David Benavidez**, the new undisputed champion.

Canelo’s team, visibly upset, rushed to attend to their fighter, who, although conscious, was still dazed by the impact of the blow. The event was temporarily suspended, with security at the venue tasked with dispersing the crowds while police maintained order.

After the chaos that broke out in the ring, **David Benavidez** remained calm and thoughtful. In a later interview, the new champion shared his vision of victory.

“This is not the end, this is just the beginning. I knew I could beat him, but I didn’t think I would do it so quickly. Canelo is a legend, but I am here to show that the new generation also has its place in boxing history. And we just showed that tonight!” said Benavidez, who looked proud but aware of the magnitude of the fight he had just won.

The repercussions of this loss have not only affected Canelo Alvarez’s image, but have raised many questions about his future in boxing. **Is Canelo coming to the end of his career?** Does the loss to a young and powerful Benavidez mean that the Alvarez era has come to an end? Although Canelo has been known for his resilience and his ability to come back after losses, this crushing fall could be a turning point in his career.

“Canelo is a warrior, but with this defeat, many things are likely to change. Boxing is a very demanding sport, and time has caught up with him,” said **Juan Manuel Márquez**, another former world champion.

David Benavidez has achieved the unthinkable. With his victory, he has not only earned the right to call himself champion, but has made it clear that the future of boxing is in the hands of young talents hungry for success. Benavidez’s victory over Canelo Alvarez marks a turning point in boxing history, and the question now is **who can stop him?**

For Canelo Alvarez, the return will be even more challenging. With his legacy intact but a direct blow to his champion status, the question now is whether he can regain his place at the top or if the young Benavidez is here to stay. The boxing world is eagerly watching the next move from both.
