Comments Thread For: Jose Ramirez Blasts Out Maurice Hooker in Sixth Round of a War

Tie him up? That’s a new trick casual. Look at Marvin Hagler, sugar Ray Leonard, and all those other guys and see if they tied people up. Tieing up was created for house fighters to win fixed fights. Read the rule book fool. Just because they let Floyd tie people up doesn’t mean they’ll let anyone else. You really dksab and you never had an amateur fight where tying up is most definitely not allowed. Loser. Dumb kid

I think he is talking about when someone is hurt to stall for time and clear the cobwebs. It is most definitely a smart move when you are hurt. As far as doing it on a regular basis to avoid infighting, not only is it illegal but makes for boring fights. You see it all the time when guys are tired!

Good action fight. I figured that the better chin would win. As for Prorais/Ramirez? A very different fight. Ramirez takes a hell of a punch but will really be tested by Regis. Would be an intriguing matchup. Hope that it happens sooner rather than later providing Prograis beats Taylor.

- -Started a good fight, but after DAZN spazzed at the end of the 1st, by the time it rebooted 2min later, and I'm seeing the last 30sec of the fight? wtf???

[Stop holding!]

Ramirez is a pressure fighter that cant punch.

Can't punch huh...

Good point. People give Crawford a lot of credit for destroying bums semi-normally. Still waiting waiting on him to fight a live body at 147 after all these years.

In his defense, he's been calling for Spence to fight him the last year or so to no avail. Theres just no good fights for him other than PBC guys at 147

Prograis is 30 years old. Think about that.

Doesn't mean he was fighting at a top level 2 years ago. He's just broke on the top level scene the last year or so.

None of these dudes would have been considered a good fight for Crawford in early 2018. Right now, they'd all be solid fights for him if he were at 140 still.

Yeah. **** Hearn and his desire to excite the fans. He should promote properly - just play it safe, stop believing in his fighters and avoid any risky matchups.

He's making good fights, but I know it has to hurt to keep losing! Khan, Jacobs, Joshua, Hooker, and it's not looking good for Campbell! Whyte and Miller are not helping at all!

And whose ****ing fault was that? They are only a year apart in age. While Crawford was fighting the best at 135/140 Prograis was content blasting out bums on Shobox the next generation(I watched him). You telling me an African fighter(Indongo) with some small time promoter was able to get a mandatory shot for one of the four belts before Prograis? Prograis didn't want to fight and when Crawford threw all four belts in the trash(conquered divison) these dudes came out the woodwork like roaches.

I don't know what Prograis story is or why he hadn't broke on the scene earlier, I'm just saying Crawford didn't have any competition at 140 when he was there and now there would be good fights for him. That's all, nothing else. Not sure why you wanna argue over insignificant ****...

Crawford beats em all hands down, just would have been great for his career had he fought someone like Ramirez or the winner of the 140 tournament instead of unknown dudes like Postal and indongo
