BREAKING: Ryan Garcia stops Conor Benn inside two rounds at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas to defend his WBC welterweight title.

Ryan Garcia needed less than two rounds to break Conor Benn's world title dream.

One twenty five of the second, referee steps in, and Garcia keeps the WBC welterweight belt at the T-Mobile Arena in Vegas. Look at this, Garcia snapping that jab into Benn's face from the opening bell. He shook him with a left hook inside the first minute and never let the pressure off.

Then the second round turned savage. A right hand dropped Benn heavily, he got up on shaky legs, and Garcia just poured it on, body, head, ropes. You can see the uppercut here, that's the speed everybody talks about. Garcia said afterwards he was tired of Benn coming forward, so he stood his ground, and in his words, Benn got caught with a hellacious one.

Benn boiled back down to welterweight for the first time in over four years to get this shot. All that sacrifice, and it lasted four minutes and twenty five seconds.
