Gilberto Ramirez hunting undefeated Russian light heavyweight world champions

“Zurdo” targets Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol

LAS VEGAS (Март 31, 2021) – Former world super middleweight championGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (41-0, 27 Нокаута) is on the hunt and his targets are undefeated RussiansАртур Бетербиев иДмитрий Биволъ, съответно, the reigning WBC/IBF and WBA Super light heavyweight World champions.

The 29-year-old Ramirez, who recently signed an exclusive promotional contract withOscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, в момента е класиран №. 4 и Не. 5, съответно, by the WBA and WBO.

Ramirez was unimpressed by Beterbiev’s recent fight and he wonders where Bivol has been the past 1 ½ години, because he hasn’t been in the ring.

In his first fight in 519 дни (Октомври. 12, 2019), Beterbiev showed signs of rust and possibly age (36) по време на неговата 10тата round technical knockout of his relatively unknown German opponentAdam Deines (19-2-1, 10 Нокаута).  Сега, Beterbiev is talking about next fighting the winner of the April 10тата Джо Смит, Jr. (26-3, 21 Нокаута) срещуMaxim Vlasov (45-3, 26 Нокаута) април 10тата for the vacant WBO 175-pound division title. Vlasov, между другото, was defeated by Ramirez via a 10-round unanimous decision in 2015.

“I expected a lot more from him (Бетербиев),” 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 месеца, 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 1во in London against somebody namedCraig “Spider” Richards 16-1-1, 9 Нокаута), 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

QUOTES AND PHOTOS FROM TODAY’S MEDIA WORKOUT:

 

 

 

 

I’m so excited to be back fighting at home, especially after our history making fight on HBO. I fought Cecilia Braekhus. We were the first women to ever fight on HBO and there were more than a million viewers. If I knew that many people would be watching, I would have been a lot more nervous.

 

 

 

“На хартия, it was a loss, but it was really a win-win for me, and women’s boxing. It’s already opened a lot of doors for me. There’s been so much growth for me and women’s boxing. It’s going to open the door for other women to fight on networks. It was a step up for women’s boxing, not just for one event, but forever.

 

 

 

I’m the first female Native American to fight in New England.

 

 

 

I’ve been fighting 18 години. I played basketball and volleyball in high school, but I love boxing.

 

 

 

I showed in my last fight that I belong to be with the elite. I want to get a rematch (with Braekhus).”

 

 

 

Being a road warrior, I’m familiar fighting away or at home, but it’s more comfortable fighting here at home. My hometown crowd is always very supportive.

 

 

 

“(Събота) I am going to come out with a victory. My opponent’s taller, but I just need to follow the game plan and execute.

Пресконференция ЦИТАТИ
Jose Rivera, RPE CEO: “I’m excited because a press conference means the fights are getting closer. We plan to build our promotional company this year. There is a lot of talent in New England and that’s why we have so many Connecticut fighters on this card. I want the fighters here to understand the importance of a press conference. They will gain valuable experience speaking in public and being interviewed by the media. One of the primary reasons we’re promoting is to give young fighters a platform to box and prepare them for their pro careers.
A.J. Rivera, RPE President/Matchmaker: “The support we’ve received has been tremendous and we exceeded expectations in our first year. This is just the begining for RPE. We’re going to get better this year. We’re not satisfied just being a small promotional company. Boxing is the loneliest sport in the world and these boxers need fanssupport. There’s a lot of talent in New England and much of it is concentrated in Connecticut. We have more Connecticut fighters on this card than fighters from Massachusetts.
Ричард Ривера: “Това е голяма възможност за мен. Rivera Promotions accomplished so much in its first year. I fought in the co-main twice of two previous RPE shows I fought on. This is going to be an awesome show, not just the main event. There are competitive boxers up and down the card. Не мига, don’t go to the bathroom because any one of these fights could end at any time.
This is a big step up for my career. Boxing is my passion. We’re both coming to fight. Печалба, lose or draw we’ll see who the Alpha dog is at the end. “I’m ‘Popeye The Sailor Man’, and I’m good to the finish because I eat my spinach.
Кевин Кобс: “I respect Rivera and believe in what I hear. He seems like a good dude. I’m excited about this fight. A lot of people weren’t sure about what I was doing because I hadn’t fought след две години когато получих обаждането (to fight Rivera). Boxing took me out of the space was in and I never stopped boxing. This is going to be a big year for the Rivera’s. I like to switch it up and I’m ready to go.
Боби Харис, III: “My opponent wants to redeem his brother’s loss to me. I want to thank RPE for putting me in the co-feature in only my third pro fight. My first two fights were a learning experience and this fight I’m looking to make a statement to showcase my talents. I have a lot to prove as the only Worcester fighter on this card.
Омар Bordoy, Jr:I’m fighting a tough opponent. Fighting is easier for me than talking up here. I’m fighting a guy from Hartford. I have a lot of love for his trainer and Hartford. I want my hand raised at the end of the fight.
Дерик Уитли:I want to thank Rivera Promotions for putting me on this card. I fought on two of their shows last year and came out 2-0. I’m looking to be 3-0. It was a learning experience going from the amateurs to pros. Everybody’s goal is to raise your level. I’m in the best shape of my life for this fight and doing things in the gym I’ve never done before. I’m looking for a stoppage.
Wilfredo Pagan: “Аз съм 37 years old and I’ve always had a glad to fight at least one pro fight. A couple of fights fell through but the Riveras opened the doors for me. I put it all into my fights. I was looking for one fight and this will be my fourth. I’m going to be 4-0.
Карлос Marraro, III: I want to thank Rivera Promotions for the opportunity to showcase my talents February 10тата. This will be my first fight on a Rivera Promotions card, but I’m familiar with most of the fighters on this card.

WORCESTER, Маса. (Януари 8, 2018) – Един от най-популярните перспективите Ню Ингланд боксови, непобеден Hartford (CT) полутежката Ричард “Попай Моряка” Rivera (5-0, 4 Нокаута), ще бъде водещ в третата си шоу Събота нощ, Февруари 10, на паладий в Worcester, Massachusetts.
В петия транш от “Бъдещето на Нова Англия” серия, представена от Rivera Промоции Развлечения (RPE), 27-годишният Ривера отговаря Kevin “край 2 UNKL” Кобс (10-2, 4 Нокаута), борба от Бърлингтън (VT), за свободната Universal федерация по бокс (маточния кръвен поток) Нова Англия титла в главното събитие на осем кръг.
Rivera, който е бил 2016 шампион Роки Марчиано турнир, идва от сензационно втория кръг нокаут на 146-бой ветеран Roberto Валенцуела това минало декември 9 в Hampton, New Hampshire.
“Аз съм развълнуван да има Ричи бокса за титлата на маточния кръвен поток Нова Англия, така че в началото на про си кариера,”” промотора Хосе Антонио Ривера, запасният 3-време, 2-разделение световен шампион. “Това е третият път, когато съм имал привилегията да го биете на един от нашите карти. Той се бори в главното събитие на последното ни шоу (Октомври) в DCU център. Ривера изглежда по-добре и по-отчетливи всеки път, когато го гледате битка. Виждам големи неща идват за него. Той разполага с инструментите и дисциплината треньор ще потърси и боксьор трябва да стане световен шампион. Небето е границата за Ричард и, за сега, ние сме благодарни да играе една малка част, за да подпомогне развитието на професионалната си кариера.”
Ривера успешно на пазара си Popeye персона по време на неговия млад професионалист бокс кариера, носенето на шапка моряшка на ринга с традиционен Popeye подобни тръба висиш в устата си. “Има няколко причини за ника, 'Попай', но когато бях много млад,” Ривера е обяснено, “Имах необичайно големи лактите. Той просто остана с мен през годините, когато хората посочени мен във фитнеса, така съм да работите с нея. Отивам да събера живот обратно в Хартфорд с търпение, цяла Нова Англия, с търпение, постоянство и стил. Аз живея в момента.”
Въпреки че той не спечели много от големите награди или турнири като аматьор боксьор, Ривера, натрупан безценен опит боксира много от най-добрите аматьори в Нова Англия и в националните събития, както и спаринг с харесва на бившите световни шампиони Peter “Kid Chocolate” Килин, Чад Доусън и Джо Смит, Jr. Той също научил от времето, прекарано на ринга с бившите претенденти заглавие Израел “по-скоро” Кардона и Джон Скъли.
“Взех си време да станат професионалисти, защото аз не са имали система за подпомагане при мен да стигнем до следващото ниво,” Ривера е отбелязано. “Бях несигурен. Положителната обратна връзка, която получих от бойци аз спаринг подава в моето доверие. Сега, само в моята шеста про бой, Аз ще бъде хедлайнер за трети път, и се бори за първата си титла. Не мога да благодаря на Riveras (Жозе и сина си, A.J.) достатъчно за това, което сте направили за мен. Те са вярвали в мен.”
Първо, Ривера е малко по-склонни да се борят по-опитните Коб но, след това някои изследвания, той прие предизвикателството. “Бях малко нервна в началото,” той призна,. “Някои от тях са под въпрос, ако аз бях готов да се засили, за да се бори с него. Направих някои проучвания: той не е имал по-голяма аматьорски кариера, или се борили повече от шест или осем кръга боеве от мен. И аз бях на спаринг партньор за първата про да го победи, Тирон Burris(TKO2 в 2012). Аз съм готов! Аз съм 27 и се нуждаят от бой по този начин.”

Снимки от: Sean Michael Ham / Премиер боксови Champions
CHICAGO, IL (Март 9, 2017)After stopping former world champion, Chad Dawson (34-5, 19 Нокаута), with a stunning tenth-round TKO, WBC #8 light-heavyweight contender, Andrzej Fonfara (29-4, 17 Нокаута), is welcoming challenges from everyone in the top ten.

I’m looking forward to my next fight and the possibilities that have opened up with my victory over Chad Dawson,” said Andrzej Fonfara. “My main goal is to avenge my loss toДжо Смит младши., but if I can’t get him in the ring, then I’m looking to face anyone in the top ten of the light-heavyweight division.
With the light-heavyweight division loaded with talent, Fonfara seeks a meaningful fight with one of the top contenders, more specifically, former WBC super-middleweight champion, Badou Jack (20-1, 12 Нокаута), who recently vacated his world title at 168 паунда.
Badou Jack seems like the perfect opponent, but I must warn him, this is not the super-middleweight division,” Fonfara continued. “Badou Jack has never faced punchers like those fighting at 175 паунда. He must earn his shot to a world title fight, just like I did when I was coming up. This makes for a perfect opportunity for us to fight, with the winner moving up the rankings.
