Thx Goat I did see that yesterday when I googed it.I think it was Boxing 24-7 but it had no quotes.Also seen story story today.Gotta admit I was surprised to see Arum signing another Cuban after Rigo f@#ked up his money guy in Donaire.He did everything he could to sh it on Rigo after that.Cuban's don't have much of a fanbsase outside S Florida and their style for most point is not exciting to the casuals.Me personally I LOVE very good tech fighters and believe most of time the best PFP fighter is the best defensive fighter.I really liked this kid from the 1st time I seen him and thought he was the best AM in the world so i really look forward to seeing him progress as a pro.Enjoy the fights this weekend bro.Comment

Yeah this kid has the potential to be something special, probably the most excited I’ve been for an amateur turning over since Loma.Thx Goat I did see that yesterday when I googed it.I think it was Boxing 24-7 but it had no quotes.Also seen story story today.Gotta admit I was surprised to see Arum signing another Cuban after Rigo f@#ked up his money guy in Donaire.He did everything he could to sh it on Rigo after that.Cuban's don't have much of a fanbsase outside S Florida and their style for most point is not exciting to the casuals.Me personally I LOVE very good tech fighters and believe most of time the best PFP fighter is the best defensive fighter.I really liked this kid from the 1st time I seen him and thought he was the best AM in the world so i really look forward to seeing him progress as a pro.Enjoy the fights this weekend bro.

Out Bob arums own mouth today. He's a featherweight.

"What a gift to sign a two-time Olympic gold medalist like Robeisy Ramirez," said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum, who held a ceremonial signing with Ramirez on Friday afternoon in Kissimmee, Florida. "The last two-time gold medalist that we signed out of the amateurs, Vasiliy Lomachenko, has become a big star. We anticipate the same from Robeisy."
Ramirez will campaign professionally as a featherweight, Arum said.
"He is truly a special talent, and he has what it takes to get to the top of the featherweight division in short order," Arum saidLast edited by bigdunny1; 05-25-2019, 03:44 AM.Comment

I hope this is due to Ramirez actually being a natural FW now and not because Arum wants him to fight at that weight class. I mean I guess it's possible that from three years ago he has over grown the 122 weight division, but may be more that Arum thinks there are bigger fights at 126.Out Bob arums own mouth today. He's a featherweight.

Yea not a great weekend looking forward to the prospects on these cards not so much the main events.I guess the main on DAZN is really still a prospect in Haney and I am interested in seeing his continued development.Comment

He’s not a natural featherweight whatsoever. Hopefully his talent can carry him through against naturally bigger opposition.Comment

I like the look of Haney, definitely has talent. I want to see him tested though, I liked the sound of the Campbell matchup when that was being suggestedComment

Yea I think this year before its out we will see him in a title fight.Even if Loma unifies he wont be able to hold all them belts for long with all the mandatory's.Sounds like we will see Campbell v Loma 1st.Comment
