Comments Thread For: Arum Wants Ramirez, Prograis to Take Interim Fights on Same Card

[Bronx2245]

F#ck old a$$ Arum with this bs. This was a mfing tournament. You don't get an interim fight in a f#cking tournament. I say strip him of w/e bs title he won the other night & bump up Regis to w/e if Ramirez opts out of the fight.

Dumba$$ idea. I don't even get the point of avoiding Regis outside of Arum thinks Ramirez has only a small chance to beat him or something (which I don't think is the case even if I do favor Regis).

We saw this coming last week! I agree, Prograis should hold his own! However, we know money talks! If Ramirez doesn't want that work, the WBC should strip Ramirez and make Prograis vs. Josh Taylor for the WBC title! I would love to see Garcia vs. Prograis, but I know the IBF isn't haven't it! Bob knows that Ramirez took a beating on Saturday! He's (Ramirez) a warrior, but, his head was popped back way too much!

That didn't take long for arum to start his BS. SMH

If the opponents were top 10 then it might be interesting, but if the opponents are going to be tin cans selected to make sure they both win, then there lies the problem.

Complete horse****. This isn't the kind of fight you let marinate, it's not at that damn level yet. It should be NEXT and Prograis agrees.

Like it or not that was a very smart move.

Smart promoter.

I bet Ramirez is all for this idea. ****ing cowards.

More BA BS. I hope Prograis stands his ground. He's mandated to fight for the title. DO IT!

[Alabama FTBL]

The WBC mandated Imam-Ramirez and Postol (Later Indongo)-Prograis to fight with the winners guaranteed to meet in the final, Ramirez got to fight for the full title despite being ranked lower than Prograis who only fought for the interim belt and now Arum wants Prograis to wait months for another fight and then wait many more months for the title shot he already earned? the tournament was held so that the winners would fight immediately according to the WBC, it doesn’t matter how great the opponents for Ramirez and Prograis are on this doubleheader, Prograis is being cheated, and the WBC ( And Lou DiBella) have to demand an immediate Ramirez-Prograis fight next.

i bet ramirez is down to fight, but arums gotta be bummin out on havin to lose that belt so soon.

What makes you think Ramirez will lose to Prograis?
What has Prograis done to make you think he'll beat Ramirez?

[BigStomps]

This would be a great fight between Ramirez and Prograis.
I don't know why too many ******, dumb motherfuccers are picking Prograis to easily beat Ramirez.
This is a 50/50 fight that either fighter can win.
In no way is this an easy fight for Prograis.
