Yoenli Hernandez: record, next fight and profile →
Warriors Boxing Promotions president Leon Margules says today’s purse bid for a fight between WBO middleweight champion Denzel Bentley and his fighter, mandatory No. 1 challenger Yoenli Hernandez, was a clear sign that Bentley wants no part of Hernandez.
Jesus Ramos Jr. has his sights set on Yoenli Hernandez and says the unbeaten Cuban middleweight has been doing plenty of talking. Speaking with BoxingScene’s Lance Pugmire ahead of his September 19 showdown with unbeaten Meiirim Nursultanov, Ramos made it clear: “I want Yoenli. I really want that fight.” Ramos currently holds the interim WBC middleweight title, while Hernandez is closing in on a WBO title opportunity against Denzel Bentley. If both men keep winning, one of the most intriguing rivalries at 160lbs could be ready to explode. But first, Ramos has business to handle against Nursultanov on September 19 in San Diego.
