David Benavidez is one of the greatest boxers in the world right now. But forget about him for a bit because his wife Karina Silva seems to have taken over the internet with her latest social media post. The ‘Mexican Monster’ is about to make his debut at the 175-pound division against Ukraine’s Oleksandr Gvozdyk at Las Vegas, but all eyes are on his wife.

Having given birth to their second child in December last year, Silva has been in Benavidez’s corner, providing emotional support for the undefeated boxer. However, this time, Silva might just have stolen the spotlight, as her pictures on social media have gone viral with fans melting over the Mexican beauty and her awe-inspiring fashion sense.

In the pictures, Silva is seen wearing a sleek black dress with her hair tied back, exuding elegance, while Benavidez arrived in an all-black outfit with striking red accents, making the couple truly stand out among the crowd gathered for the event. Their stylish appearance captivated the fans, prompting them to flood the comment section with enthusiastic reactions and expressions of admiration.

Silva-Benavidez labelled power couple 

They say there’s a woman behind every successful man, but seeing these two side-by-side, fans seemed excited, to say the least. One user simply complimented Silva’s minimalist yet elegant black dress, writing, “Love your dress”. If the dress from this face off was enough to impress fans, the fight night attire may send some into a coma.

The following user wasn’t just impressed with Silva’s dress but also her baby daughter’s dress, as the user complimented both, commenting, “Your dress!!! baby Khloe’s dress!! Love it so much. good luck this weekend”. Besides their daughter, the couple also have a son named Anthony, who was born in September 2020.

Another user summed up his reaction in two words, writing, “Power couple.” Notably, Silva is a former model and currently owns two clothing brands with large followings online, so it’s safe to say the user is right.

Someone else praised Silva for her continuous support for Benavidez, writing, “Always supporting ya man. Thats whats up”. In fact, whether it’s a fight or press conference, Silva has been seen on her husband’s side during all of their appearances.

One user, ensnared by Silva, wrote, “You look gorgeous Amiga”, which, of course, wasn’t an unpopular opinion in the comment section.

Evident from the comments, people are paying more attention to Karina Silva than David Benavidez, despite the fact that it’s the latter who is about to enter the ring. What did you think about Silva’s dress?
