Perfect connection Gilberto“Zurdo” Ramirez & Trainer Julian Chua

發表評論

LAS VEGAS (五月 25, 2021) – Back in February of 2019, 世界拳擊組織 (WBO) Super Middleweight Champion吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯 had made a decision to move up to fight in the light heavyweight division, and he was searching for a new head trainer.

拉米雷斯 (41-0, 27 科斯) immediately connected with a then 28-year-oldJulian Chua, a former amateur boxer who had been training boxers at羅奇’s famed Wildcard Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. “Zurdo” and Chua are now 2-0 (2 科斯) and preparing for a mega-fought later this year, ideally, against undefeated World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight ChampionDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 科斯).

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 親紀錄, 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, 什麼時候湯米Kar​​pency (29-6-1) 無法四輪過後繼續, followed last December 18日 有 10日 round stoppage ofAlfonso Lopez (32-3) to capture the North American Boxing Federation (NABF) 稱號.

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 with霍亞’s Golden Boy Promotions, 目前排名沒有. 3 by the WBA and WBO. “Zurdo” returns to action July 9日 in Los Angeles against沙利文巴雷拉 (22-3, 14 科斯).

Whether it’s Bivol, or the other world light heavyweight champions — 阿圖爾Beterbiev 和喬·史密斯 – “Zurdo” and Chua are preparing to beat the best for Ramirez to wear the coveted World championship crown in a second division.

“Zurdo” fighting for his legacy, 41-0 Gilberto Ramirez on mission to join elusive 50-0 club

發表評論

LAS VEGAS (五月 19, 2021) – Only five boxers have started their professional careers with a 50-fight win streak and the contemporary leader, 41-0 吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯 is on a mission to join the exclusive club, continuing July 9日 in Los Angeles against沙利文巴雷拉 (22-3, 14 科斯). 

拉米雷斯, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract with霍亞’s Golden Boy Promotions, was the first Mexican-born super middleweight World champion, and he is currently the No. 3 rated light heavyweight in the world, 由世界拳擊協會 (WBA) 和世界拳擊組織 (WBO). 

Although he won’t turn 30 until June 19, Ramirez has been fighting professionally for nearly 12 歲月, and one of his goals is to become a World champion in two different weight classes. Another is joining his idol and fellow Mexican, 塞薩爾查韋斯 在 50-0 俱樂部, in which he is No. 1 having amazingly won his first 87 pro fights. The first blemish on his pro record was a 12-round majority draw with the greatPernell惠特克 在 1993 in their WBC World welterweight title fight.

  5. 弗洛伊德“錢”梅威瑟, Jr. 50 (27 科斯)    1996-2017       美國

    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    “Getting to 50-0 is very important, but I’m more interested in being able to fight the fights the fans want,” Ramirez said. “I’ve never turned down a fight and have made it clear to all the fighters I want. I look across the division and none of these fighters are on my level”

    Chavez moved ahead of featherweight iconWill Pep在 62, 別. 2 on the contemporary list, compiled in less than three years dating back to the 1940’s. Pep lost for the first time as a pro to薩米Angott by 10-round decision in 1943.

    Another Mexican boxer is in the 50-0 俱樂部, 別. 4 Carlos Zarate, who reached 52 straight victories off his pro debut, 51 淘汰賽, in the 1970’s. Zarate was stopped in his 53RD fight by Puerto Rican star維爾弗雷多·戈麥斯 in the fifth round of their 1978 WBC super bantamweight World championship match.

    The only member of the exclusive 50-0 Club to retire undefeated is Floyd “Money” Mayweather, JR. in fifth place with 50.

    The four inactive boxers in the club – Chavez, Pep, Zarate, and Mayweather – are inducted in the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

    洛磯馬爾恰諾 和Brian Nielson (49), 拉里·霍姆斯 (48), 里卡多·洛佩斯 (47), 卡爾扎合 (46-0) 和Jim Barry (45) all came close to 50-0 memberships. Lopez (51-0-1) fought a draw in his 48日 pro fight withRosendo Alvarez. 

    Ramirez is closing in on boxing history as he fights for his legacy. Five years after he retires, “Zurdo” should rightfully join the four Hall of Famers who are presently ahead of him on the 50-Club list.

Gilberto Ramirez hunting undefeated Russian light heavyweight world champions

“Zurdo” targets Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol

LAS VEGAS (三月 31, 2021) – Former world super middleweight champion吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯 (41-0, 27 科斯) is on the hunt and his targets are undefeated Russians, 阿圖爾Beterbiev 和Dmitry Bivol, 分別, the reigning WBC/IBF and WBA Super light heavyweight World champions.

The 29-year-old Ramirez, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract with霍亞’s Golden Boy Promotions, 目前排名沒有. 4 和No. 5, 分別, by the WBA and WBO.

Ramirez was unimpressed by Beterbiev’s recent fight and he wonders where Bivol has been the past 1 年半, because he hasn’t been in the ring.

In his first fight in 519 天 (十月. 12, 2019), Beterbiev showed signs of rust and possibly age (36) during his 10日 round technical knockout of his relatively unknown German opponent, Adam Deines (19-2-1, 10 科斯).  現在, Beterbiev is talking about next fighting the winner of the April 10日 喬·史密斯, JR. (26-3, 21 科斯) 與Maxim Vlasov (45-3, 26 科斯) 四月 10日 for the vacant WBO 175-pound division title. Vlasov, 順便, 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 個月, since winning a 12-round unanimous decision against列寧卡斯蒂略.  Instead of returning against a “name” fighter in defense of his WBA Super title, Bivol will be returning May 1ST in London against somebody namedCraig “Spider” Richards 16-1-1, 9 科斯), 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!

Oscar De La Hoya’s strong support primary reason Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez signed with Golden Boy

發表評論

LAS VEGAS (三月 1, 2021) – Undefeated world light heavyweight contender and former world super middleweight champion, 吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯 (41-0, 27 科斯), recently signed an exclusive promotional contract with Golden Boy Promotions, primarily because of the strong support he will receive fromOscar De Lay Hoya and his team.

“Ultimately,” the 29-year-old Ramirez explained, “Golden Boy understood the goals and agendas I set for myself and I felt the strong support from Oscar and his team. It’s a multi-fight deal with potential for something longer pending this first experience. From all the conversations my team and I have had with Golden Boy, I felt comfortable with them and the future opportunities that will arise from our relationship.

“Oscar is a great guy and it’s been nothing but a pleasure dealing with him and his team. As my relationship with Golden Boy continues to grow, I’m sure we (奧斯卡) will become closer. He’s a champion and one of the greatest to ever lace up the gloves. I look forward to working to him closely.”

Ramirez’ goal is to become the undisputed light heavyweight champion world, something he will have a better shot of accomplishing with Golden Boy in his corner.

“(WBA Super light heavyweight World champion梅德) Bivo升 (17-0, 11 科斯) is someone who has always been on the radar and I have full faith in (Golden Boy matchmaker) Robert Diaz to put together the best fights for me,” Ramirez added. “Unification has always been the goal. I know I’m the best in the division and hope to make this happens for the history books in the near future.”

This past December, Ramirez launched his own promotional company, Zurdo Promotions, which will remain active.

“Zurdo Promotions will continue and stay active,” Ramirez said. “Going forward, all my fights with Golden Boy will be in association with Zurdo Promotions. I will host fights in Mexico to be a bridge between Latin America and the United States. There’s tremendous talent in that region and I hope to use my platform to help and support the underserved fighters in Mexico.”

拉米雷斯, who is tentatively slated to return to the ring in May, 目前排名沒有. 1 由WBC, 還有沒有. 4 和No. 5, 分別, by the WBA and WBO.

Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez targets Saul “Canelo” Alvarez for future mega-showdown

發表評論

LAS VEGAS (一月 21, 2021) – If 29-year-old吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯 (41-0, 27 科斯), arguably already one of the top 25 Mexican fighters of all-time, has his way as he enters his prime years, he will eventually have a mega-showdown with fellow countrymanSaul “Canelo” Alvarez (54-2-32, 36 科斯) before making their way to the Hall of Fame.

“Anything is possible, and it’ll be great for fans if a fight for me against ‘Canelo’ happens,” Ramirez said. “With two Mexicans in the ring, you know it’ll be a war from round one. We’ll see what happens in the future.”

第一, 雖然, Ramirez has some business to take care of starting with a potential Interim World Boxing Council (WBC) light heavyweight World title fight against 2012 中美. 奧林匹亞“Sir” Marcus Browne (23-1, 16 科斯).

The WBC recently ordered No. 1 rated Ramirez vs. 別. 4 布朗. Team Zurdo and Team Browne have until February 5日 to work out a deal before it goes to purse bid. Ramirez is promoted by his own company, Zurdo Promotions, while Browne is represented by PBC.

If everything goes as Ramirez plans, he’ll have a world unification fight with either WBC/IBF light heavyweight World champion阿圖爾Beterbiev (15-0, 15 科斯) or WBA Super title-holderDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 科斯, preferably later in 2021, pending COVID-19 restrictions.

“I never look past any fight,” Ramirez noted. “In this sport, on any given night, the best man will win. All I can do is train hard and prepare myself to be my best for when the occasion arises. 褐色, 水牛, Beterbiev or Canelo, it doesn’t matter who I fight; I always train hard to make sure I’m ready when the fight is here.”

Ramirez became the first Mexican fighter to capture a world super middleweight crown in 2016, when the athletic southpaw thoroughly dominated defending champion“King” Arthur Abraham (44-4), winning each round for a 12-round unanimous decision (120-106 X 3) to become the WBO world champion.

在 2019, Alvarez joined WBO titlistJulio Cesar Gonzalez (2003) as the only Mexican-born light heavyweight champions of the world, when he stopped 34-3-1謝爾蓋·科瓦廖夫 在 11日 round to become the WBO World light heavyweight champion. The 9-time, 4-division world champion Alvarez relinquished his WBO light heavyweight crown without defending it.

Ramirez is off to the 5日-best winning streak to start a professional career in Mexican boxing history behind four Hall of Famers: his idol塞薩爾查韋斯 (87), Carlos Zarate (52), 里卡多·洛佩斯 (47) 和馬爾科·安東尼奧·巴雷拉 (43). 

The dream match for “Zurdo,” of course, is down the road against Canelo. How about having it on Cinco de Mayo or Mexican Independence Day? 

Between then and now, 然而, Ramirez needs a career-defining victory against a primetime opponent such as Beterbiev or Bivol to set the stage for a Canelo showdown.

“We’ll see if he’s (CANELO) able to do it again (fight as a light heavyweight),” Ramirez added. “He’s already fought at that weight once (輕重量級) and I don’t see why it should be a problem unless it was a fluke. But I do understand he and his team will have to be a lot more cautious navigating this weight class, compared to the lower divisions, due to the higher risk. Also, we’ve been around each other before and even sparred. He knows I’m not just a Kovalev or a Callum Smith.

“It’ll (CANELO VS. Zurdo”) be an instant classic and a great way to showcase top-tier Mexican boxing to the world. I think fans will love this battle between Sinaloa (拉米雷斯) and Jalisco (阿爾瓦雷斯).”

41-0 Gilberto “左撇子” Ramirez all in for WBC Interim World light heavyweight clash with “先生” 馬庫斯·布朗

發表評論
LAS VEGAS (一月 14, 2021) — The first super middleweight world champion of Mexican decent, 不敗 Gilberto “左撇子” 拉米雷斯 (41-0, 27 科斯) is all in for a potential World Boxing Council (WBC) Interim light heavyweight World title fight against 2012 中美. 奧林匹亞 “先生” 馬庫斯·布朗 (23-1, 16 科斯).

The WBC ordered Ramirez vs. Browne this past Monday because reigning WBC light heavyweight World champion 阿圖爾Beterbiev (15-0, 15 科斯) hasn’t defended his title since capturing it October 18, 2019, due to getting COVID-19 during training camp, as well as for other pandemic related restrictions. Beterbiev is also the reigning International Boxing Federation (IBF) light heavyweight World champion.

Ramirez is the No. 1 light heavyweight contender in the WBC ratings, while Browne is ranked No. 4. Team Zurdo and Team Browne have until February 5日 to work out a deal before it’ll go to purse bid. Martinez is promoted by his own company, Zurdo Promotions, while Browne is represented by PBC.

“This is an interesting opportunity and I’m ready to fight anyone in the light heavyweight division to leave my mark on the sport,” Ramirez said. “I know Marcus has been out of the ring for a while, but he’s a U.S. Olympian and still one of the best in the game. I know he’s wanted this fight for a while and hopefully we can make something happen.

“此外, it’s always been my dream to get the green belt (WBC) and bring it back to Mexico. I have a lot of respect for the WBC and Mauricio Suliman and I am grateful for all their love and support throughout my career.”

上個月, Ramirez fought for the first time in 20 個月, stopping defending champion Alfonso “埃爾蒂格雷” 洛佩茲 (32-4, 25 科斯) in the 10th round of the “Battle of Rio Grande” 主要事件, which marked the debut of Zurdo Promotions.

The 29-year-old Ramirez became the first Mexican fighter to capture a world super middleweight crown in 2016, when the ultra-gifted, athletic southpaw pitched a complete shutout against defending title holder “王” 亞瑟·亞伯拉罕(44-4), winning each round for a 12-round unanimous decision (120-106 X 3) to become the World Boxing Organization (WBO) 世界冠軍.

Ramirez successful defended his WBO title five times against 33-4-1 Maksym Bursak (DEC12), 22-0 Jessie Hart (DEC12), 25-0-1 哈比卜·艾哈邁德 (25-0-1), 23-0 Roemer Alexis Angulo (DEC12), and Hart again in a rematch (DEC12). “左撇子” moved up to the light heavyweight division in 2019, destroying 29-6-1 湯米Kar​​pency, who was unable to continue fighting after four rounds.

A talented southpaw as well, Browne was a decorated U.S. amateur out of New York City, who won gold medals at the 2010 中美. 全國PAL錦標賽和 2012 中美. 全國錦標賽, prior to representing the U.S. at the Olympic Games in London.

布朗, 30, is a past WBA Interim light heavyweight World champion. He has beaten a pair of word champions, 22-1-3 八斗傑克 (DEC12) 和 25-7-1 加布里埃爾坎皮略 (25-7-2). Other notable opponents he has defeated include 21-0 radivoje Kalajdzic (DEC8), 20-2 托馬斯·威廉姆斯 (KO6), 28-0 肖恩·莫納漢 (TKO2), 和 18-1-1 列寧卡斯蒂略 (DEC10). Browne’s last fight was August 3, 2019, when he suffered his first loss as a professional to former world champion 讓·帕斯卡爾(33-6-1) via an eight-round technical decision, after Browne suffered a severe cut over his left eye from an accidental head-butt.

“There are always challenges to making a fight become reality,” Ramirez concluded, “but me being both the fighter and sole promoter, I’m flexible on the common problems that takes to make a fight. I’m not sure how much time Marcus will need to be ready, but both time and location can be determined when the other preliminary items are agreed upon. If it goes to a purse bid, I’m ready for the process and, 希望, this fight can happen for both of us.”

Gilberto Ramirez vs. Alfonso Lopez Headlines “Battle of Rio Grande”

發表評論
Live Dec. 18日 on pay-per-view from Galveston, 得克薩斯州

GALVESTON, 得克薩斯州 (十一月 30, 2020) - - There is a Texas showdown coming December 18日 called the “Battle of Rio Grande,” in which undefeated, former world super middleweight champion吉爾伯托“Zurdo創作”拉米雷斯 (40-0, 26 科斯) challenges North American Boxing Federation (NABF) 輕重量級Alfonso “El Tigre” Lopez (32-3, 25 科斯), live on pay per view from Galveston Island Convention Center in Galveston, 得克薩斯州.

“Battle of Rio Grande” will be available for live viewing on digital, cable and satellite, 開始 8 P.M. AND / 5 P.M. PT, on pay per view for a suggested retail price of only $24.99. FITE will stream worldwide on the FITE mobile apps, all major OTT apps and website (www.FITE.tv), and Integrated Sports Media will distribute throughout North America via DirecTV, iN Demand, and DISH in the United States, as well as in Canada on Shaw and SaskTel.

The main event fighters, Ramirez and Lopez, are co-promoters of “Battle of Rio Grande” under their promotional company names, 分別, Zurdo Promotions and El Tigre Promotions.

拉米雷斯, 29, became the first Mexican super middleweight champion of the world in 2016 with a 12-round unanimous decision over World Boxing Organization (WBO) 冠軍亞瑟·亞伯拉罕 (44-4).  The multi-gifted southpaw “Zurdo” (means lefthanded in English) from Mazatlán, 墨西哥, went on to make five successful title defences, including three against unbeaten challengers傑西·哈特 (25-0), Habif Ahmed (25-0-1), 和流浪漢亞歷克西斯·安古洛 (23-0).

Ramirez moved up to light heavyweight for his last fight a year ago, when he stopped 29-6-1湯米Kar​​pency in four rounds, after which Ramirez became a promotional free agent. “Battle of Rio Grande” is his first event as a promoter.

“Promoting is not an easy job,”拉米雷斯說, “but I have good people behind me. They’ve got my back and we work very well together. I was world champion and now I’m a promoter; I see the big picture. I don’t want to be fighting forever. I started my own promotional company so that when I retire, I will have a good life after boxing. There’s no stress on me as a promoter, the stress is on my team.”

The 6’ 3” Ramirez is a physical specimen who can dunk a basketball and could easily have been a pro athlete in a different sport like football. He follows business trends and by[opening his own promotional company, he’s taking advantages of the new era of boxing, in which he plans to aid fellow boxers, particularly Mexicans, by giving them a larger platform to display their skills.

Working with his opponent in terms of promoting “Battle of Rio Grande” is a sign of two fighters taking control of their careers, as well as being completely independent rather than under a promoter, although Lopez has been promoting in Texas for several years.

“We’ll work together but, 在環, he wants my 40-0 Ramirez noted. “I know he’s been training a lot, so he’s going to be faster and stronger, which is good for me because I like fighting good fighters. Everybody wants to take my record, but I’m training (In Santa Monica, 例如) like the champion I am to give fans a good fight. He’s going to bring everything he has into the ring. I expect a good fight. It’s a big opportunity for him. I am fully focused on him because I want the opportunity to be world champion again.”

Lopez will be riding a 10-fight win streak into the ring Dec. 18日 versus Ramirez in the 12-round main event. His most recent fight was 13 個月前, when he won a 10-round decision over 19-9-1丹尼斯·格拉喬夫 in Lopez’ first defense of the NABF title he captured in his previous fight with a fourth-round stoppage of 21-3Alex Theran.

Ramirez isn’t looking past Lopez for future fights against world light heavyweight champions Artur Beterbiev (WBC & IBF) Dmitry Bivol (WBA), because he knows and respects Lopez. The media and public, 一般來說, underappreciated Lopez and some have taken cheap shots at him in social media.

“Maybe a little but it’s not a big deal,” Lopez responded to being asked if he was undervalued. “I’ve always said that in this busines, everybody has the opportunity to be seen. Gilberto’s beaten quality guys and he’s a world champion. I’ve promoted myself, mostly in Texas, and I’m well respected within the industry. If they really want to see who Gilberto is fighting, tune in, and then make decisions at the end of the fight and maybe they’ll change their mind. Otherwise, they should keep their opinions to themselves instead of reading about me on social media or matching up who we’ve fought.”

Ramirez has a marquee name, and he represents a career-changing opportunity for Lopez, who has captured four titles, including the NABF crown he’ll be defending. 更多, “El Tigre” holds victories over solid opponents other than Grachev and Theran, such asDyah Davis 和魯賓·威廉姆斯, 而在 2011 Lopez extended凱利帕夫利 the distance in a loss by way of a 10-round majority decision.

Lopez isn’t fighting Ramirez simply for a payday, to the contrary. “Nobody walks into the ring thinking they’re just happy to be there,” Lopez explained. “This fight will establish me as a world-class fighter. I feel that the winner will be the best in our division and the guys walking around with their belts should fight the winner. Gilberto is a great fighter who has a lot of experience as a world champion. He has physical attributes that him difficult to fight. He’s strong and always in great condition. I need to be intelligent, able to read him, and in great shape.

“The fight will be about adjustments. We’ve both been in this game a long time and at this high level of boxing, you need to be smart and strategic, but both of us being Mexican, it could turn into a brawl at any time. People will see why nobody wants to fight either of us. I’m excited and I know he is, too. Boxing fans don’t want to miss it!”

World-rated heavyweightMichael “The Bounty” Hunter 將面臨老將Chauncy “Hillyard Hammer” Welliver (57-13-5, 23 科斯), the former World Boxing Council (WBC) Continental Americas champion, in the 10-round co-featured event.
