LAS VEGAS (AP) — Danny Garcia stopped Brandon Rios with a right hand in the ninth round Saturday night in their WBC welterweight world title elimination bout.
Garcia (34-1, 20 KOs) beat Rios (34-4-1, 25 KOs) at Mandalay Bay Events Center to set up a potential rematch against WBC and WBA champion Keith Thurman or a fight against IBF champion Errol Spence Jr.
Garcia fought for the first time since losing the WBC title in a unification fight with Thurman in March.
“I felt the ring rust a little bit in the beginning,” the Philadelphia fighter said. “He’s a good inside fighter and he was giving me some good uppercuts. He came to fight. I came to box, and I did that. I came to bang, and I gave the fans what they wanted — a knockout.”
Rios was able to get back on his feet, but staggered toward referee Kenny Bayless, who waved off the fight at the 2:25 mark of the round.
“I’m mad,” Rios said. “I don’t like going out like that. I’m a warrior, I got back up and I wanted to continue. I guess the corner stopped it but I’m mad. I’m mad because I got up still. I’m a warrior. I’m still in the game. I didn’t think he did much to hurt me.”
Garcia, from Philadelphia, was the world champion for six years dating to his win over Hall of Famer Erik Morales in 2012 through the March loss. Rios, from Oxnard, California, is a former lightweight champion.
David Benavidez (20-0, 17 KOs) defended his WBC super middleweight title for the first time in a 12-round unanimous decision over Ronald Gavril (18-3, 14 KOs). The judges scored it 120-108, 120-108 and 119-109. The fight was a rematch of last September’s bout in which Benavidez won the world title.
Benavidez, from Phoenix, landed 315 punches to Gavril’s 176 and connected on 41 percent of his power shots.
“I knew he was going to come out aggressive,” Benavidez said. “I knew I could jab and box him all day. When I saw the opening I took it. I didn’t knock him out though. He’s a tough son of a gun.”
In an undercard IBF 147-pound title eliminator between two welterweight contenders, Yordenis Ugas (21-3, 10 KOs) stopped Ray Robinson (24-3, 12 KOs) in the seventh.
BOOM. Fight is over. @DannySwift is victorious in the 9th. #GarciaRios pic.twitter.com/cuvekhAKfy

Meek Mill will soon have his day in court, with an opportunity to get his 2007 drug and gun conviction overturned. That conviction led to him being placed on probation, which Philadelphia Common Pleas Judge Genece Brinkley recently ruled he violated. Resulting in her sentencing him to 2-4 years in prison.
Fox 29 reports that a hearing has been set for Monday, April 16.
This potentially huge break for Meek, born Robert Williams, comes on the heels of an article published by the Philadelphia Inquirer.
In it Police Officer Jerold Gibson claims fellow cop Reginald Graham lied when he said Meek pointed a gun at him and resisted arrest.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Meek's lawyer, Peter Goldberger, filed a motion Wednesday, February 16.
"The guilty verdicts were expressly based on the court crediting Officer Graham's testimony, Without Graham's testimony, [he] could not have been convicted on any count," Goldberger wrote.
The rapper's legal team is urging Judge Brinkley to overturn the conviction based on contradictions between sworn testimony and the account of the arresting officer.

(WBAL) The jury has ruled in favor of the family of Korryn Gaines in their wrongful death civil trial in Baltimore County.
After deliberating for about three hours, jurors ruled that Baltimore County police Officer Royce Ruby did not act reasonably in the fatal shooting of Gaines and the wounding of her son, Kodi, in August 2016.
The jury awarded the family more than $36 million, including actual medical and funeral expenses and non-economic damages (pain and suffering). No punitive damages were awarded.
The jury awarded $32 million to Kodi, $300,000 to Korryn Gaines' father, $300,000 to Korryn Gaines' mother, $300,000 to Korryn Gaines' estate, and $4.5 million to Karsyn Courtney, Korryn Gaines' daughter.
Gaines' family was crying and hugging in the courtroom after the jury verdict was read. Ruby did not flinch as the verdict and damages were read.
"I don't know how anyone can just extinguish a life, then hide behind a badge," Korryn Gaines' mother, Rhanda Dormeus, said. "I can't even get out of bed to do my activities of daily life. I was a registered nurse, a psychiatric nurse. This has ripped me apart. I am not mad with Officer Ruby. I don't have any space to be mad because my heart is too broken."
"For Kodi, it means a lot. Now he's going to be able to get the help he needs. It's a sad situation what happened, and I'm very glad the jury came back and saw what was going on in that courtroom was't right, and what happened Aug. 1 wasn't right either," Korryn Gaines' father, Corey Cunningham, said.
"This is a great day. This is a great statement on behalf of many who have been victimized by police officers -- too many in our community. This is a great day," said Ken Ravenell, attorney for Kodi Gaines.
"Korryn is smiling today. She got her day in court," said J. Wyndal Gordon, the attorney for the Gaines family.
Baltimore County Attorney Mike Field issued a statement, saying, "A mother died, a child was unintentionally injured, and police officers were placed in mortal danger. By any account, this was a tragic situation. The county is disappointed with the verdict and is reviewing all of its options, including an appeal."
In September 2016, Baltimore County State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger said no criminal charges would be filed against the officers involved. Ruby was promoted after the shooting.
"I hope that Shellenberger is now second-guessing his decision. I have no degree of faith that he would reconsider it," Gordon said.
"This guy knowingly assassinated my daughter and injured my grandson to, I believe, beyond repair with post-traumatic stress," Dormeus said. "This win is for all of my sisters in the movement who have lost their children to police violence. Some of them have never received justice, either criminally or civil. I just want to tell them that this win is for them."
"He needs to pay for it more than just out of pocket because, actually the citizens are going to pay for this, he's not even going to pay. He's going home to his family. My family has been destroyed," said Kareem Courtney, Karsyn's father.

PARKLAND, Fla. (AP) — The FBI received a specific report last month that the suspect in the Florida school shooting had a “desire to kill” and access to guns and could be plotting an attack, but agents failed to investigate the tip, the agency said Friday.
A person who was close to Nikolas Cruz called the FBI’s tip line on Jan. 5 and provided information about Cruz’s weapons and his erratic behavior, including his disturbing social media posts. The caller was concerned that Cruz could attack a school.
In a statement issued Friday, the agency acknowledged that the tip should have been shared with the FBI’s Miami office and investigated, but it was not. The startling admission came as the agency was already facing criticism for its treatment of a tip about a YouTube comment posted by a “Nikolas Cruz” last year.
The FBI investigated the comment, which said “Im going to be a professional school shooter,” but did not determine who made it.
FBI Director Christopher Wray said the agency was still reviewing its missteps on the January tip. He said he was “committed to getting to the bottom of what happened,” as well as assessing the way the FBI responds to information from the public.
“We have spoken with victims and families and deeply regret the additional pain this causes all those affected by this horrific tragedy,” Wray said in the statement.
Cruz has been charged with killing 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, north of Miami.
Also Friday, mourners gathered for the first funeral for a shooting victim, packing the Star of David chapel to remember 14-year-old Alyssa Alhadeff. From outside the chapel, other mourners strained to hear the voices chanting Jewish prayers and remembering the star soccer player as having “the strongest personality.” She was also remembered as a creative writer with a memorable smile.
A day earlier, details of Wednesday’s attack began to emerge, showing how the assailant moved through the school in just minutes before escaping with the same students he had targeted.
Cruz jumped out of an Uber car and walked toward building 12 of the school, carrying a black duffel bag and a black backpack. A man inside spotted Cruz and knew he was a former student, a troubled kid.
He radioed a co-worker and within a minute heard gunshots.
The 19-year-old was wearing a maroon shirt, black pants and a black hat. The man, whose name was blacked out from a sheriff’s affidavit, told detectives Cruz was moving “purposefully.”
Cruz slipped into the building, entered a stairwell and extracted a rifle from his bag, authorities said. He shot into four rooms on the first floor — going back to spray bullets into two of the rooms a second time — then went upstairs and shot a single victim on the second floor.
He ran to the third floor, where according to a timeline released by the Broward County Sheriff’s Office, three minutes passed before he dropped the rifle and backpack, ran back down the stairs and quickly blended in with panicked, fleeing students.
Florida State Sen. Bill Galvano, who visited the third floor, said authorities told him it appeared that Cruz tried to fire point-blank out the third-floor windows at students as they were leaving the school, but the high-impact windows did not shatter. Police told Galvano that it was not that difficult to open the windows.
“Thank God he didn’t,” Galvano said.
From the time Cruz entered the building until the time he left, only six minutes passed. During that brief time, he shot more than two dozen people, including 17 fatally.
After the rampage, he walked to a Wal-Mart and bought a drink at a Subway restaurant, then went to a McDonald’s.
About 40 minutes later, a deputy saw him walking down a suburban South Florida street and grabbed him. He didn’t put up a fight.
Among the dead: assistant football coach Aaron Feis, slain while shielding students from bullets; Joaquin Oliver, a student known for his unique look and who once dyed his hair bleach-blonde with tiger stripes; Alyssa Alhadeff, an avid soccer player and student; and 35-year-old geography teacher Scott Beigel, who helped students enter a locked classroom, only to be shot himself.
Among at least 1,000 people attending a candlelight vigil near the school Thursday night, some openly sobbed as the victims’ names were read aloud. At one point, people began chanting, “No more guns! No more guns!”
Dressed in the school’s red color, some held flowers while others wielded signs asking for action to fight school violence, including gun control.
“Kids don’t need guns. No guns under 21,” read one sign.
Ernest Rospierski, a teacher at the school, took several bracing breaths at the vigil as he talked to a reporter about the horror in the halls.
“Bang, bang, bang — all of a sudden the shooting stopped,” he said. “I looked down. He was reloading. I yelled run. And then I ran behind as many kids as I could.”
Authorities have not described any specific motive, except to say that Cruz had been kicked out of the high school, which has about 3,000 students and serves an affluent suburb where the median home price is nearly $600,000. Students who knew him described a volatile teenager whose strange behavior had caused others to end friendships.
Cruz was ordered held without bond Thursday at a brief court hearing. He wore an orange jumpsuit with his hands cuffed at his waist. His public defender did not contest the order and had her arm around Cruz during the short appearance. Afterward, she called him a “broken human being.”
Wednesday’s shooting was the 17th incident of gunfire at a U.S. school this year. Of these, one involved a suicide, two involved active shooters who killed students, two involved people killed in arguments and three involved people who were shot but survived. Nine involved no injuries at all.
