Light-heavyweight contender Albert Ramirez’s first fight of 2026 is intended to follow up on his last fight of 2025, in which he won the WBA interim title.

Ramirez, 22-0 (19 KOs), will headline on February 5 at the Cabaret du Casino de Montreal in Quebec, Canada, against an opponent yet to be named, according to promoter Eye of the Tiger.

“We have no doubt that Albert Ramirez has everything it takes to collect several more belts,” said Camille Estephen of Eye of the Tiger. “From his very first world title defense, we intend to send a clear message to the light-heavyweight division – and with the opponent we’ll be announcing shortly, I can assure you that message will be heard.”
