Ramirez ເປັນນິທານກິລາພາຍໃນເມືອງ LA. ການເດີນທາງຂອງລາວໄດ້ເລີ່ມຕົ້ນໃນ gridiron, ບໍ່ຢູ່ໃນວົງ, ໃນເວລາທີ່ລາວເປັນສະມາຊິກທີ່ສໍາຄັນຂອງທີມບານເຕະ Lincoln High, profiled ໃນ a 2015 ກະ, “ESPN 60: ຈົດໝາຍ.” ຜູ້ນແມ່ນມາຈາກພາກສ່ວນອາຊະຍາກໍາຂອງ Hollywood riddled ກັບຢາເສບຕິດແລະປືນ. ຣາມິເຣສ 5'4”, 160-pound ແລ່ນກັບຄືນໄປບ່ອນຢູ່ໃນທີມງານທີ່, ເລີ່ມຕົ້ນໃນການແຂ່ງຂັນ Pop Warner, ແລະກ້າວໄປສູ່ Lincoln High, ເຊິ່ງບໍ່ປະສົບຜົນສຳເລັດໃນການແຂ່ງຂັນບານເຕະ. Lincoln High ກາຍເປັນແຊ້ມລີກ 3 ສະໄໝ, ເນັ້ນໃຫ້ເຫັນດ້ວຍການປະກົດຕົວໃນຮອບຮອງຊະນະເລີດໃນຮອບຮອງຊະນະເລີດໃນປີອາວຸໂສຂອງລາວ, ເຊິ່ງໃນທີ່ສຸດໄດ້ນໍາພາ "Scrappy" ໄປຫາຈຸດລາຍຊື່ໃນທີມບານເຕະຂອງວິທະຍາໄລ Los Angeles Valley.

“ສະຖານທີ່ດັ່ງກ່າວແມ່ນພຽງແຕ່ຂັບລົດຫ້ານາທີຈາກເຮືອນຂອງຂ້ອຍ,” Ramirez ຕື່ນເຕັ້ນເວົ້າ. “ຂ້ອຍຂັບລົດຕາມມັນທຸກໆມື້. ຂ້ອຍເຕີບໃຫຍ່ຢູ່ຮອບ USC ແລະຫຼິ້ນບານເຕະຢູ່ທີ່ນັ້ນ. ໃນ​ປັດ​ຈຸ​ບັນ, ຂ້ອຍ ກຳ ລັງຕໍ່ສູ້ຢູ່ໃນຕົວເມືອງທີ່ຂ້ອຍເຕີບໃຫຍ່. ນັ້ນ​ເປັນ​ຢາ​ເສບ​ຕິດ​ຫຼາຍ! ຄວາມຝັນຂອງຂ້ອຍແມ່ນເພື່ອຕໍ່ສູ້ກັບ Staples Center, ເຊິ່ງພຽງແຕ່ຂັບລົດສາມນາທີສໍາລັບຂ້ອຍ. ຂ້ອຍໃກ້ເຂົ້າມາແລ້ວ.

“ສິ່ງ​ດັ່ງ​ກ່າວ​ບໍ່​ໄດ້​ເກີດ​ຂຶ້ນ​ໂດຍ​ບັງ​ເອີນ. ໃນ​ເດືອນ​ມີ​ນາ 18th, ຂ້ອຍຈະສະແດງທັກສະຂອງຂ້ອຍຕໍ່ຫນ້າປະຊາຊົນຂອງຂ້ອຍ. LA ແມ່ນເມືອງຂອງແຊ້ມ, ແຕ່ພວກເຮົາບໍ່ມີແຊ້ມມວຍໂລກນັບຕັ້ງແຕ່ Oscar de la Hoya, ຜູ້ທີ່ເຕີບໃຫຍ່ຢູ່ໃນ East LA. ເປົ້າຫມາຍຂອງຂ້ອຍແມ່ນເພື່ອເປັນແຊ້ມ LA ຕໍ່ໄປ.”

 “ຂີ້ຮ້າຍ,” ຜູ້ທີ່ເປັນນັກຕໍ່ສູ້ທີ່ມີການເຄື່ອນໄຫວຫຼາຍທີ່ສຸດໃນ 2021 ກັບເຈັດ bouts, ປະສົບ​ຜົນ​ສໍາ​ເລັດ​ໃນ​ການ​ຫັນ​ປ່ຽນ​ຈາກ​ບານ​ເຕະ​ກັບ​ມວຍ​, ເຖິງ ແມ່ນ ວ່າ ການ ເຮັດ ວຽກ ມວຍ ນັກ ສ ມັກ ເລ່ນ ສັ້ນ ທີ່ ມີ ພຽງ ແຕ່ 25 ການແຂ່ງຂັນນັກສມັກເລ່ນ. ລາວໄດ້ຮັບກຽດນິຍົມສູງສຸດໃນການແຂ່ງຂັນ Sugar Bert National Championships, ເຊັ່ນດຽວກັນກັບການແຂ່ງຂັນຖົງມື Golden ແລະ SoCal ລະດັບພາກພື້ນ.

“ລາວ​ເປັນ​ຄົນ​ຍາກ, opponent ທົນທານ,” Ramirez ສັງເກດເຫັນ, “ຜູ້ທີ່ຢູ່ໃນວົງການທີ່ມີຄວາມສົດໃສດ້ານທີ່ດີຫຼາຍ. ນີ້​ແມ່ນ​ໂອ​ກາດ​ທີ່​ດີ​ທີ່​ຂ້າ​ພະ​ເຈົ້າ​ໄດ້​ອອກ​ຖະ​ແຫຼງ​ການ​ໂດຍ​ການ​ເປັນ​ພຽງ​ແຕ່​ຜູ້​ທີ​ສອງ​ທີ່​ຈະ​ເອົາ​ລາວ​ອອກ.”

Meet Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez protégé Undefeated bantamweight prospect John “Scrappy” Ramirez

ອອກ​ຄໍາ​ເຫັນ​ເປັນ
Team Scrappy.jpg

LOS ANGELES (ເດືອນ​ມັງ​ກອນ 12, 2022) – Undefeated bantamweight prospect John “Scrappy” Ramirez (8-0, 7 KOs), the second boxer signed to 3 Point Management (3PM) which also manages 43-0 Gilberto “Zurdo” Promotions, was arguably the most active boxer in the United States in 2021 with seven professional fights, including three on high-profile platforms headlined by “Zurdo,” the former World Super Middleweight Champion, and today the top-ranked World light heavyweight contender.


“’Scrappy’ is a hard-working kid that I’ve known for a while now and it’s great to have him around,” Zurdo commented. ”He brings a larger-than-life personality, and his flare is often well-received. I believe if he continues to work hard and stays in the gym, the sky is the limit. We know he’s a true athlete and I would put him against anyone in the bantamweight division.”


“Scrappy” made his pro debut December 18, 2020, on a pay-per-view event promoted and headlined by “Zurdo.” Two fights later, “Scrappy” fought in his first scheduled 6-rounder, in addition to a slated 8-round bout in only his sixth pro fight.


“Scrappy” and “Zurdo” are not related, ຢ່າງ​ໃດ​ກໍ​ຕາມ, they’re close and as the 25-year-old John explained, “With us it’s little bro and big bro. He may not be working my corner, usually because he’s fighting later on the same card, but I’m with him every day we’re training at Brickhouse (ມວຍ), and he’s always giving me tips and support. I live in downtown Los Angeles only a 15-minute drive from the gym in North Hollywood. It has it all and the real beauty of it is that it attracts fighters to spar and train with, especially when fighters are there for their training camp. We just had ‘Zurdo,’ David Benavidez, and 4-time world champion Brian Viloria, who is there as a trainer, for our last fight.


‘I feel good knowing I was the second fighter signed by 3 Point Management. ໃນ​ປັດ​ຈຸ​ບັນ, we have other fighters in our stable and that brings more competition. I want to be the best and, even though we’re on the same team, I want to go out there and do what it takes to be the best fighter I can be. I’m with ‘Zurdo” every day I’m in the gym and I watch him. He makes everything look easy, effortless, and that’s beautiful. He put his trust in me and I want to show him it was a good decision. I take great pride in being the first fighter they signed.”’


Ramirez’ long, arduous journey to this point started on the gridiron not in a ring, ໃນເວລາທີ່ລາວເປັນສະມາຊິກທີ່ສໍາຄັນຂອງທີມບານເຕະ Lincoln High, profiled ໃນ a 2015 ກະ, “ESPN 60: Letterman.” The players were from a crime-ridden part of Hollywood that was riddled with drugs and guns. ຣາມິເຣສ 5'4”, 160-pound ແລ່ນກັບຄືນໄປບ່ອນຢູ່ໃນທີມງານທີ່, ເລີ່ມຕົ້ນໃນການແຂ່ງຂັນ Pop Warner, then advancing to Lincoln High, ເຊິ່ງບໍ່ປະສົບຜົນສຳເລັດໃນການແຂ່ງຂັນບານເຕະ. Lincoln High ກາຍເປັນແຊ້ມລີກ 3 ສະໄໝ, highlighted by semifinals playoff appearance in his senior year, eventually leading “Scrappy” to a roster spot Los Angeles Valley College’s football team.


Despite being warned he’d be red-shirted as a freshman, Ramirez played on the varsity as a true freshman but, after his first season, “Scrappy” wasn’t happy with his playing time nor the business side of college football. “Scrappy” soon found himself in what he described as a “dark place” for months, trying to figure out what he wanted to do with his life. He tried to enlist in all four military branches, but was rejected because, ເຂົາ​ເວົ້າ​ວ່າ, due to all the tattoos on his body and their visual placements. ມີ​ມື້​ຫນຶ່ງ, he heard a friend’s voice from the past saying, ‘Go to a gym.’ Despite having no experience in boxing, he walked into the famed Wild Card Gym to speak with Hall of Fame trainer, owner Freddie Roach, who told Ramirez training would be hard and that he’d need to start as an amateur boxer. His work ethic was admirable and because he was a gifted athlete, everything soon clicked, and he became a student of boxing. Ramirez had 25 ການແຂ່ງຂັນນັກສມັກເລ່ນ, capturing top honors in the Sugar Bert National Championships, ເຊັ່ນດຽວກັນກັບການແຂ່ງຂັນຖົງມື Golden ແລະ SoCal ລະດັບພາກພື້ນ.


“I was on the right track,” Ramirez added. “Everything I learned in football from Coach Muskaki Matsumoto (Lincoln High) I applied in boxing like discipline. I trained hard every day and there was no wasted time.”


Ramirez moved to New York City because a boxing friend of his had a manager there willing to help “Scrappy” make his pro debut. ແຕ່​ຫນ້າ​ເສຍ​ດາຍ, ເຖິງ​ແມ່ນ​ວ່າ, the pandemic quarantine went into effect, canceling his scheduled pro debut only one week prior to its scheduled date. Ramirez stayed in Churchill Gym, sparring and training, still hopeful of making his pro debut in the Big Apple. He eventually returned to Los Angeles and several weeks before the inaugural Zurdo Promotions event in Galveston, Texas, he received what is now a life-changing call from Zurdo’s manager, David Suh.

“Before I went to New York City, I had talked to David about making my pro debut,” Ramirez added. “He remembered when I came back to LA and asked if I wanted to make my pro debut on December 18th (2020). I believe everything happens for a reason. I had become friends with Julian Chua at Wild Card. He saw me working at the gym and liked my work ethic. He gave me pointers and told me that one day we’d be working together. Julian became Zurdo’s head trainer and now he’s mine, too.”


His impressive pro-debut performance – first-round KO — led to enticing “Scrappy” into signing a managerial contract with 3 Point Management.


“Scrappy” says he’s an exciting, unique fighter from his ring walk to his outfit, as well as the way he fights. “I bring Bad Intentions into the ring,” he added. “It’s fun! I’m a chess player who always plans ahead. I’m versatile and able to adapt in the ring, which is super important. I want to take your soul!"


“’Scrappy’ not only has the skills,” Chua added, “he has the charisma and showmanship it takes to be a real star in this sport. Don’t confuse confidence with arrogance. He takes his training with a world championship attitude.”


A self-proclaimed student of boxing, “Scrappy” has particular enjoyed watching and studying Hector Camacho, Edwin Valero, Adrien Broner, Canelo Alvarez, Gervonta Davis, Vasyl Lomachenko, ແລະ, ແນ່​ນອນ, “Zurdo” Ramirez.


“I am destined,” Ramirez concluded. “I’ve seen all this. I visualized, planned, and created these experiences before they happened. I was one of the most active fighters in the nation last year. ເປົ້າຫມາຍຂອງຂ້າພະເຈົ້າສໍາລັບ 2022 is to stay busy, keep learning, and make statements. I’d like to have 6 more fights, get ranked, and bring home a championship belt. I will keep winning and give people a show.
