Originally posted by Scipio2009 View PostWho is Jose Ramirez going to fight though? With the WBSS finally confirming their 8 fighters at 140 (Prograis, Taylor, Rellikh, Troyonovski, Baranchyk, Yigit, Ryan Martin, and Flanagan coming up five pounds), Maurice Hooker taking his WBO belt to DAZN, and a decent crop of 140lb fighters staying in the Haymon orbit, the actual options aren't much.
You look at the WBC rankings, and you've viably got Antonio Orozco (#3; signed with Golden Boy), Mohamed Mimoune (#5; European champion, but the 20-2, 2 stoppages record may kill interest from TV), Antonio Demarco (#10), Danny O'Connor (#13), and Ohara Davies (#15; doubt that Top Rank really considers him, tbh).
Not terrible fights, but not all that great either.

Ramirez vs Orozco is a good fight. One of the better ones to be made outside of the WBSS. Zurdo vs Hart will be ok. In 2019 Bob will have to keep Zurdo fighting at about that level or above or his fighter will continue to regress.

That same Lenny Z was laying the wood on Lipinents for 5 rounds before he got caught but Hooker just isn't very good

You can go into history all you want, we're talking about a fight that's likely next.

I trust my eyes.
