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

[ShoulderRoll]

The WBC said they have to fight next. Prograis doesn't want to wait, he wants it next.

So **** Bob Arum. He shouldn't be allowed to get in the way.

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

How is he a coward you ****** motherfuccer??
What's your boxing record?
Two boxers passed away yesterday for doing what they love and that's Boxing.
They risk their lives everytime they fight in the ring and you wanna call a boxer a coward??
You punk ass biitch!
The only coward here is you!

Bob trying to keep his champ a lil longer he knows Prograis is gonna tax dat ass

Make the fight now, no need to marinate. Whoever loses, needs to fight back to back contenders & they'd get their rematch.

[HanzGruber]

doesnt matter what bob wants, theyre fighting next or drop the belt

[Scipio2009]

well, ramirez won the belt while vacant so, isn't he supposed to fight the number 1 contender? the mandatory challenger?

Unless he's unifying the belt, yeah. With a second one due after within the year.

I doubt this is Ramirez. This is a promoter seeing a paycheck for himself and his fighter. Normally I would not care, and I would be fine if it does go down that way. Fighters careers are short in this sport, and an extra payday is something I would never begrudge someone. But I see this as the best time possible for this fight between two fighters not really well known. No reason for this not to be the headliner on ESPN next during the dog days of summer when there is only baseball to really compete with. It could be a fun fight, and ESPN would be able to dedicate a lot of air time to promote it. Just make the fight.

Bob not ******. He knows Prograis beats the hell out of that dude. He is trying to hang on to the belt, but its a mandatory so let that strap go if you don't want your boy to fight.
