Таг Арцхивес: бокс
Perfect connection Gilberto“Zurdo” Ramirez & Trainer Julian Chua
ЛАС ВЕГАС (Мај 25, 2021) – Back in February of 2019, Ворлд Бокинг Организатион (ВБО) Super Middleweight ChampionГилберто "Зурдо" Рамирез had made a decision to move up to fight in the light heavyweight division, and he was searching for a new head trainer.
Рамирез (41-0, 27 КОс) immediately connected with a then 28-year-oldJulian Chua, a former amateur boxer who had been training boxers atФреди Роацх’s famed Wildcard Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. “Zurdo” and Chua are now 2-0 (2 КОс) and preparing for a mega-fought later this year, ideally, against undefeated World Boxing Association (ВБА) Super Light Heavyweight ChampionDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 КОс).
How Ramirez ended up with Chua as he head trainer isn’t a typical boxing story. After all, “Zurdo” was the first Mexican world super middleweight champion, sporting a 29-0 про рецорд, and only 27 when they first met.
Ramirez’ manager, David Suh, conducted a search to hire Ramirez’ chief second. He had a list that included some of the top trainers in the industry, as well as a young, relatively unknown – at least outside of southern California – in Chua.
“I don’t know how I got on that list,” a humble Chua said. “There was going to be a tryout of sorts to determine who would work with ‘Zurdo.’ We trained together in Long Beach (where Ramirez was training) and then I met with David for coffee. He asked if I was interested in becoming the head trainer. We trained together a little more. He liked the way I trained, and we got along well. I texted David saying we liked working together and that I was interested in becoming his head trainer.
“We clicked right away, and we learned things about each other and how we liked to train. I study a lot and do a lot of research of how he had been trained, because I wanted to help him to improve. I was getting four fighters ready in LA and “Zurdo” couldn’t go there for sparring. I said I couldn’t leave these fighters and go to Santa Barbara. “Zurdo” respected me even more for not jumping ship from those four fighters for a better opportunity. We still wanted to work with each other, and ‘Zurdo’ made it work. I went to Long Beach twice a week, he came to Wildcard three times.”
Ramirez won his light heavyweight debut April 12, 2019, кадаТоми Карпенци (29-6-1) није могао да настави након четири круга, followed last December 18тх са 10тх round stoppage ofAlfonso Lopez (32-3) to capture the North American Boxing Federation (НАБФ) наслов.
Chua was trained by Roach when he was an amateur from Indiana, but when Chua started at Wildcard, Roach’s assistantEric Brown became Chua’s mentor. During his training career atWildcard West Boxing, known now as Churchill Boxing in Santa Barbara, Chua has trained several world champions in boxing and MMA.
The 29-year-old Ramirez, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract withОскар де ла Хоја’s Golden Boy Promotions, is currently ranked No. 3 by the WBA and WBO. “Zurdo” returns to action July 9тх in Los Angeles againstсулливан Баррера (22-3, 14 КОс).
Whether it’s Bivol, or the other world light heavyweight champions — Артур Бетербиев иЏо Смит – “Zurdo” and Chua are preparing to beat the best for Ramirez to wear the coveted World championship crown in a second division.
