Comments Thread For: Risking Mandatory Spot Worth It To Ramirez, Top Rank

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The safest thing Gilberto Ramirez could’ve done is sit back and wait for his mandatory title shot.

Mexico’s Ramirez is the WBO’s No. 1 contender at 168 pounds, perfectly positioned to fight the winner of Saturday’s bout between WBO super middleweight champion Arthur Abraham and Martin Murray in Hannover, Germany. Rather than wait, Ramirez will fight Friday night against an opponent, the Netherlands’ Gevorg Khatchikian, with a good record (23-1, 11 KOs) that Ramirez admits he doesn’t know much about.

A smart move for Zurdo Ramirez wouldve been to look for the biggest$ fight right away and cash out. He really is horrendous to watch, he punches like he is underwater and plods around the ring like an overgrown oaf, I think Tyson fury might have faster hands and feet. And to top it all off, he has no power...
