Came up short tonight, but showed his heart and toughness and definitely won a handful of rounds tonight. Garcia said he didn't have much trouble making weight tonight, so what path does he take coming back? Go to 147? Stay at 140? What sort of types should he be looking at upon his return?
What's next for Jose Ramirez?

I'd love to see him fight Prograis.
I don't know why everyone is in such a damn hurry to vacate and move up in weight. For once I'd like to see someone become undisputed and then just ****ing reign over the division like a modern day Hagler. I think that's what Inoue said he planned on doing with Bantamweight, but you never know now that he's signed the big deal. -
Honestly it was the second kd that ****ed him up. Whether you blame bayless or Ramirez himself he just wasnt the same. Taylor showed hes not willing to make it a fight and just relied on Ramirez making it aggressive to counter him. Not to mention the clinching. Geez.
I think Ramirez stays at 140. Maybe fight prograis if he doesn't price himself out considering hes on triller. Can Ramirez get the frame for 147?Comment

I think you just take the rest of the year off if you are JCR. Rest a lil while. Enjoy yourself. And then look back at 140 in 2022. Maybe Taylor has moved up so he can walk right into a loose belt. Maybe he can take a gimmee fight just to get back into the win column. But idk that I'd make any plans right now if I was JCR so that would be my whats next.Comment

I will be interested to see where the sanctioning bodies rank Ramirez after this. He might be able to work himself into an eliminator rather quickly and potentially get a shot at a vacant belt next year if Taylor moves up. As far as TR goes, he could potentially find himself in a rematch with Zepeda or a fight with Arnold BarbozaI think you just take the rest of the year off if you are JCR. Rest a lil while.

Ramirez v Prograis would be good.
A rematch with Zepeda would be good too, seeing as the first fight had favourable cards in some people’s eyes
maybe a fight with Barboza? He’s a top rank fighter I think? I’m certain I saw him on a top rank card anyway, So that could be made
