Oscar “Kaboom” Rivas on special mission to become heavyweight & bridgerweight World ChampionImportant announcement
Gilberto Ramirez hunting undefeated Russian light heavyweight world champions
“Zurdo” targets Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol
Лас Вегас (Март 31, 2021) – Former world super middleweight championGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (41-0, 27 KOs) is on the hunt and his targets are undefeated Russians, Артур Beterbiev ваDmitry Bivol, мутаносибан, the reigning WBC/IBF and WBA Super light heavyweight World champions.
The 29-year-old Ramirez, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract withОскар De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, is currently ranked No. 4 ва Не. 5, мутаносибан, by the WBA and WBO.
Ramirez was unimpressed by Beterbiev’s recent fight and he wonders where Bivol has been the past 1 ½ сол, because he hasn’t been in the ring.
In his first fight in 519 рӯз (Окт. 12, 2019), Beterbiev showed signs of rust and possibly age (36) during his 10уми round technical knockout of his relatively unknown German opponent, Adam Deines (19-2-1, 10 KOs). Ҳозир, Beterbiev is talking about next fighting the winner of the April 10уми Joe Смит, Jr. (26-3, 21 KOs) рӯ ба рӯиMaxim Vlasov (45-3, 26 KOs) апрел 10уми for the vacant WBO 175-pound division title. Vlasov, ногаҳон, was defeated by Ramirez via a 10-round unanimous decision in 2015.
“I expected a lot more from him (Beterbiev),” Ramirez talked about Beterbiev’s fight with Deines. “I thought he looked flat and dull for the majority of the fight. It’s nice of him to temporarily hold my belts, but he should know that I’m coming for all the hardware and will bring the titles back to my people in Mexico.”
Bivol hasn’t thrown a punch during a fight in 17 моҳ, since winning a 12-round unanimous decision againstЛенин Castillo. Instead of returning against a “name” fighter in defense of his WBA Super title, Bivol will be returning May 1уми in London against somebody namedCraig “Spider” Richards 16-1-1, 9 KOs), the WBA No. 8-rated light heavyweight who has never fought outside the United Kingdom.
“I’ve always said Dmitry Bivol was the toughest challenge out there,” Ramirez added, “which is why I want to make this fight happen. I know he’s got a fight coming up and hopefully he stays undefeated so we can make the mega-fight this summer.”
“Zurdo” is on the hunt!

Marie-Eve Dicaire learned invaluable lesson from Claressa Shields fight
Монреал (Март 31, 2021) – Popular Canadian boxerMarie-Eve Dicaire learned an invaluable albeit disappointing lesson дар her decision-loss to now-undisputed world super welterweight championClaressa сипарҳои (11-0, 2 KOs) on the March 3юм “SUPERWOMEN” pay-per-view event.
Dicaire (17-1) suffered her first loss as a professional and in boxing that often leads in one direction or the opposite: learning from the overall experience and improving as a boxer or continue fighting as just a former world champion chasing opportunity.
Two weeks after the Shields fight, Marie-Eve was right back in training, rather than wallowing in her first loss and feeling sorry for herself.
“Clearly,” Dicaire said, “I learned a lot. I went right back to the gym with a precise plan to take my boxing to another level. I’ve realized many things, some good and some bad, but it will definitely help become a more complete fighter.
“After two weeks off, I had more than enough. Also, during the last year we experimented with a new way to work. I go to the gym for intense training for a few weeks, then take a few days off to rest. This method has brought me to another level, so we decided to work this way for my upcoming camp, because I felt great in the ring. I’m an overachiever. I can’t rest when I know I lost. I needed to get the work done to enjoy true vacations. I know I will be in the ring again soon.”
Losses ultimately lead to changes but Dicaire’s goal of becoming undisputed world champion remains the same. What’s changing, ҳатто, is her style, at least to some degree, especially considering she has zero knockouts during her pro career.
“I was born ready, so the sooner, the better,” Dicaire spoke about winning another world title. “I want to become a unified, undisputed world champion and this is why I am already back to work. We’re working on improving some of my weaknesses that weren’t a priority before. I’ll be working on improving my power and inside fighting during this training camp.”
Dicaire also learned that her support system has grown, remarkably, even after the initial setback on her otherwise undefeated record.
“I thought I was going to deal with the loss alone with my family and close friends,” Dicaire concluded, “but it’s been the exact opposite. I have never experienced so much support from fans during my entire career. It is like everybody is aware I have everything it takes to become champion of the world again and they’re with me during this new journey.”

Бостон (Март 30, 2021) –Ryan Roach’s Fighter Locker has signed 2016 Медали нуқра олимпӣYuberjen Martinez to an exclusive managerial contract.
The 29-year-old Colombian light flyweight has a 7-0 (2 KOs) record in the World Series of Boxing.
“After having a beautiful amateur career,” Martinez announced, “we have decided to go pro and signed a managerial contract with Fighter Locker. I still plan to represent my country again at the Olympics this year in Tokyo. It is a pleasure for me to sign with Fighter Locker and Ryan Roach, who comes from a boxing family of tradition. I am sure that this new career change will be successful.
“I want to thank all those who have supported me as an amateur boxer and member of Team Colombia. I have learned a lot and put the name of country, Колумбия, at the top through discipline. I will continue to count on their continued support throughout my professional career.”
Martinez lost in the championship final of the 2016 Olympics on points toHassanboy Dusmatov, Ӯзбекистон, in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
In addition to winning a silver medal at the 2016 Бозиҳои олимпӣ дар Бразилия, Martinez was a bronze medalist at the 2017 World Amateur Championships in Hamburg Germany. His other amateur boxing highlights include a gold medal at the 2018 South American Games, silver at the 2019 Pan American Games in Brazil, and gold and silver, мутаносибан, дар 2018 ва 2014 Central American and Caribbean Games.
“I have signed a good number of top amateurs in their respective divisions, but none as decorated as Yuberjen,” Martinez’ new managerRyan Roach гуфт:. “This is a unique opportunity as he heads back to the Olympics and is favored to medal once again. He truly is a special fighter: зуд, мустаҳкам, and relentless. Once he finishes the Olympics, we will get right to work and focus on the professional ranks. I think it speaks volumes of my company and my reputation to sign such an outstanding fighter who could have previously signed with other managers. He’s a great addition to our fight family at Fighter Locker.”
