What's going on with Gilberto Ramirez?

I've been saying for a couple years how TR has been trying to sabotage this kid. It was clear with the two Hart fights. He never wanted those only Arum wanted Hart to get that title from Zurdo and did all he could to make that happen. The two fights between the Hart fights were two most champions would not have taken. Won't go into the details but it's interesting how that played out. I like Ramirez and hope he gets what he deserves, and that is to prove to the world that he is for real!Comment

He's trying to buy out the contract, which I thought was odd because Bob has been trying to get him the vacant WBO strap that Canelo dropped.He's wasting his career away with Top Rank. He should just buy out his contract and go to Dazn or PBC so he can fight the likes of Canelo, Callum Smith, Pascal, Brown, Joe Smith Jr, David Benavidez, Caleb Plant etc, etc, etc...
He's at the dead end of Top Rank street right now.
If Bob is good for anything, it's getting his guys a WBO strap.Comment

There's Bivol at DAZN. And Pascal minor title at PBC. That would actually be a bigger fight money wise than Bivol. Pascal can still pack them in in MontrealComment

Oh I know he can. I drove 6 hours Toronto to Montreal to see Pascal/Hopkins way back. I actually don't think Zurdo performs well against any of them. He moved up and faced Karpency and he looked like he assumed moving up to 175 would be the exact same thing except he could eat more. He looked soft and awful.
After seeing Hart give him trouble, then Hart run from Smith for 12 rounds....yeah.Comment

I think they moved him from 168 because they had nothing left for him there while they have a bunch of 175lb fighters. He can probably still make 168Oh I know he can.

From what I understand that’s the original beef at TR. he moved up and was livid he had his belt stripped and given to BJS.Comment
