Sweet!

We'll probably also see Beterbiev on the same card, per Arum whom told him he'll be fighting in China in February!

Good to see Ramirez back. Didn't expect china though lol

[Thuglife Nelo]

Good scrap!

Ramirez is tough. I thought he lost to Zepeda close but that doesn't change how good he is IMO. Want to see him with the other JWW, especially the guys from the WBSS tourney.

I hope Arum doesn't put him in with Crawford unless Ramirez can no longer make 140. Also think he'd give Loma and Lopez fits if they went to 140.

Would love to see him fight Haney down the road. great style contrast.

Any word if Beterbiev is on this card?

Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum has long mentioned the possibility of staging a major ESPN show in China, with this fight perfectly fitting the bill since World light heavyweight champion Artur Beterbiev (15-0, 15KOs) won’t be ready to go in time to satisfy that fight date.

Good fight, postal is no pushover. Ramirez will be pushed to the limit in this one.
