Zurdo is the only fighter I’ve seen frantically trying to LEAVE the promotion with all of the titles
They aren't giving him those fights so what's the point? He's been pissed since they tricked him into dropping the 168lb title so that Saunders could get it then put him in there with Karpency at 175. Why not Zurdo vs Saunders for the 168lb title? They've wasted his time and career.

I agree! At least they will try for a big matchup. All Ramirez has done is beat everyone TR threw at him. In Tucson I couldnt believe the scorecards were so close. Arum was trying to sabotoge him then. Threw 2 undefeated regional champions at him who nobody heard of and had no film on. One was a heavy handed bruiser from Colombia whom just upset Sims jr because of his punching power. Sims jr was supposed to ko Angulo. Instead he got a taste of it and ran from him the whole fight. There was a reason people ducked Angulo and Arum knew it. Also allowed for a smaller ring and had Angulo poor buckets of water over him between rounds to make the ring slippery. Too bad for Arum Zurdo persevered.. The 2nd Hart fight Zurdo fought from the 7th rd on one handed and still persevered. It hasn't been easy when your promoter is looking to bounce you off your title. Every interview I ever seen with Zurdo he constantly begs for a big name fight but Arum didn't want to give him a chance. After 40 - 0 you wouldn't think it's now time to make a statement and shine but in his case he does because one thing Arum accomplished was set a picture in the common fans mind that he didn't fight anyone substantial. Well, he has probably the best (opponent record ) than anyone in the last 5 years. I think he fought 4 undefeated fighters in a row before Hart 2. And that one loss he gave him. Alot of people I believe will soon realize how ligit Zurdo is. Especially at a comfortable weight. Looking forward to having him in a real division. It should be fun..
