Middleweight - Jesus Ramos Jr? Aarron Mckenna would school him and Joenli Hernandez would stop him.
Jesus Ramos Jr is highly overrated lost to Lubin and that's exactly his level and in his last fight at middleweight it honestly looked like he downgraded a level instead of improving.
He will not beat any of the current Champions not even old Lara and he will not beat the other 2 contenders i mentioned above.
140 Contender is for me Andy Hiraoka, Russel is ducking him. He mentions everyone in every interview but never his mandatory. This fight was already made twice if i remember correctly. Top Rank failed Hiraoka big time he is inactive since September 2024 and in my opinion he is the one that has the most potential to Unify the division.
Agit Kabayel does not deserve anything, he dropped the ball by choosing a guy not even ranked in the top 30. You want to keep or even gain momentum and what are you doing instead of choosing one of plenty names out there in the Heavyweight division, you choose the easiest no name avalaible to put on a propaganda show in Germany like back in the old days when German Boxers cherry picked their way to the title just to hold it hostage by even worse cherry picks or if necessary robberies.
Most likely Kabayel is not to blame as his promoter and manager making these decision but regardless with choosing an opponent like this he does not deserve a shot at the title. Wardley deserves to fight Usyk way more after beating Parker and even Parker still deserves it more after risking his spot unlike Kabayel who is not even willing to fight a B or C level Heavyweight. -
175 - Morrell or Khataev for me both are in line to enter top 5 this year and challenge for World Titles. Whitaker is moved super slow and carefully and this has a reason they will slow him down even worse and i suspect they want to wait until Bivol and Beterbiev are completely shot or retired and Benavidez and probably also Morrell are moving up another weight class permanently.
My prediction Whitaker will not face a top 15 fighter in the next year and probably not even in the next 2 years. They might do the Anthony Yarde with him and just jump levels and move him from no name D level to legit World Champion to cash in on him before being exposed on the low level without even making big time money.
If they choose this route i predict a horrible ending and possibly a career ending beatdown depending on who they choose but if he is ****** enough to fight Benavidez i will say it will be his end he will be damaged forever as a fighter.Comment
