A 50/50 unification bout that absolutely delivered. Non-stop action from round one. If it went on longer and Hooker was able to hurt Ramirez a bit more, this fight was well on its way to being FOTY.
Hell of a fight!
There was no “The other side of the street” s hit that we seeing with some PBC fighters, these two came together and this is what boxing fans should be supporting, stop backing stupid stuffs that makes zero sense. Ramirez went over to DAZN and took their man out on their card, got well paid for it too. Arum/ESPN didn’t prevent the fight or make any dumb excuses. We need to see this more often, these guys are prizefighter. Leave the politics to the politicians.
More fights would be like this if refs became aggressive about docking points for illegal holding. A ref recently had to get on Ugas about that. If you cant fight on the inside holding shouldnt be an option.
hooker looked shot....
How so? He was in the fight until the last 10 seconds when he got hurt. And was fine after the fight. Just got hit with a great shot he will bounce back.
You just love those bang average UK fights, huh? Lol, but Ortiz is next up. I've said for months he would beat Hooker RIGHT NOW and truly believe that. I think he will dominate in a few weeks.
Really can't wait for that Ortiz/Orozco fight, I also think Ortiz is the truth but that will be incredible action for as long as it lasts. And Ritson is pure entertainment in every fight, can't miss stuff, best fight on that card by far.
Warriors! Boxing needs more fights like that and if you lose OK fine you work your way back. That is why MMA is more popular with Younger Fans than Boxing Is. They Fight and if they those fans root for guys to come back!
Reward guys who want to fight and stop overpaying guys who don't want to fight the best! Both could've easily did the "Other Side Of The Street" BULLSH#T and not unify
Agreed, this division is delivering real treats right now. Next up is Ritson/Hughes on Friday and then Ortiz/Orozco in 2 weeks! :boxing:

Fights like this are why I have a dazn subscription. If DAZN keeps putting on fights like this their subscriber base will climb. That fight was just fireworks
