42-0 Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez marches towards boxing milestone in exclusive 50-0 club
Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez says Dmitry Bivol now has nowhere to run
LAS VEGAS (Tachwedd 17, 2021) – Frustrated by Dmitry Bivol’s silence, even after Team Zurdo and Golden Boy Promotions sent the World Boxing Association (WBA) Light Heavyweight World Super Champion a legitimate contract offer, Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez now has a clear path to his first World title shot in the light heavyweight division.
Ramirez (42-0, 28 Kos) has been matched against Yunieski “The Monster” Gonzalez (21-3, 17 Kos) ar Ragfyr 18 yn San Antonio (TX) in the official WBA Light Heavyweight Title Eliminator to determine Bivol’s mandatory challenger.
“I’m excited to end the year with this eliminator bout,” Ramirez said. “This is the path I’ve been planning for and I’m very humbled and honored to be in this position. The WBA is a great organization and I appreciate Mr. Gilberto Mendoza for allowing me to be in this position.”
Bivol (18-0, 11 Kos) expressed his desire to fight Ramirez before and after the latter knocked out Sullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 Kos) this past this past July. Suddenly, er bod, Matchroom Boxing’s Eddie Hearns claimed that Bivol would instead fight John Ryder next month in the United Kingdom, and then target WBA and WBC Super Middleweight Champion“Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 Kos), at either 168 neu 175 bunnoedd.
“I was surprised when Bivol turned down the fight we offered because it was something I thought he wanted. I know he’s a tough warrior and aspires to be the best, which is why I was surprised. He publicly called me out and sand that he was ‘ready.’ But unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be the case on his end. Eto, mewn bocsio, this seems like a common scenario where a fighter barks and barks, but he can’t back it up when it’s time to fight. Gyda'r frwydr hon (vs. Gonzalez) in place, Bivol has nowhere to run, and he will eventually have to face me.
“I’m not sure why Bivol thinks Canelo will face him in the near future. The probability of that happening within the next three fights is very, very low for him. Yn anffodus, I think he’s just the cannon fodder for this scenario.”
The first Mexican to capture the World super middleweight title, “Zurdo” has waited too long to risk his first World title opportunity in the 175-pound division to look past the dangerous Gonzalez’ (21-3, 17 Kos). Ramirez and Gonzalez, yn y drefn honno, are rated No. 3 a Na. 4 gan y WBA, and their 12-round main event will headline a Golden Boy-promoted card to be streamed live on DAZN.

Undefeated World Light Heavyweight Contender Gilberto Ramirez believes in “Zurdo,” Golden Boy & his Mexican heritage
Perfect connection Gilberto“Zurdo” Ramirez & Trainer Julian Chua
LAS VEGAS (Mai 25, 2021) – Back in February of 2019, Sefydliad Bocsio Byd (WBO) Super Middleweight ChampionGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez had made a decision to move up to fight in the light heavyweight division, and he was searching for a new head trainer.
Ramirez (41-0, 27 Kos) immediately connected with a then 28-year-oldJulian Chua, a former amateur boxer who had been training boxers atFreddie Roach’s famed Wildcard Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. “Zurdo” and Chua are now 2-0 (2 Kos) and preparing for a mega-fought later this year, ideally, against undefeated World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight ChampionDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 Kos).
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 pro record, 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, panTommy Karpency (29-6-1) oedd yn gallu parhau ar ôl pedair rownd, followed last December 18fed gyda 10fed round stoppage ofAlfonso Lopez (32-3) to capture the North American Boxing Federation (NABF) teitl.
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.
Y Ramirez, 29 oed, a lofnododd gontract hyrwyddo unigryw ag ef yn ddiweddarOscar De La HoyaHyrwyddiadau Bachgen Aur, ar hyn o bryd yn safle Rhif. 3 by the WBA and WBO. “Zurdo” returns to action July 9fed in Los Angeles againstSullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 Kos).
Whether it’s Bivol, or the other world light heavyweight champions — Artur Beterbiev acJoe Smith – “Zurdo” and Chua are preparing to beat the best for Ramirez to wear the coveted World championship crown in a second division.

Nid oedd brwydr ddiweddar Beterbiev wedi gwneud argraff fawr ar Ramirez ac mae'n meddwl tybed ble mae Bivol wedi bod yn y gorffennol. 1 ½ blynedd, oherwydd nid yw wedi bod yn y cylch.
Yn ei frwydr gyntaf yn 519 diwrnod (Hydref. 12, 2019), Dangosodd Beterbiev arwyddion o rwd ac o bosibl oedran (36) yn ystod ei 10fed ergyd dechnegol gron o'i wrthwynebydd Almaenig cymharol anhysbys, eiddoch Adam (19-2-1, 10 Kos).

Vlasov, gyda llaw, ei drechu gan Ramirez trwy benderfyniad unfrydol 10 rownd yn 2015.
“Ro’n i’n disgwyl llawer mwy ganddo fe (Beterbiev),” Soniodd Ramirez am frwydr Beterbiev â Deines. “Roeddwn i’n meddwl ei fod yn edrych yn fflat ac yn ddiflas am y rhan fwyaf o’r ymladd. Mae'n braf iddo ddal fy ngwregysau dros dro, ond dylai wybod fy mod yn dod am yr holl galedwedd a byddaf yn dod â'r teitlau yn ôl at fy mhobl ym Mecsico. ”
Nid yw Bivol wedi taflu dyrnod yn ystod ymladd i mewn 17 mis, ers ennill penderfyniad unfrydol 12 rownd yn erbynLenin Castillo. Yn lle dychwelyd yn erbyn ymladdwr “enw” i amddiffyn ei deitl WBA Super, Bydd Bivol yn dychwelyd fis Mai 1st yn Llundain yn erbyn rhywun a enwydCraig “Spider” Richards 16-1-1, 9 Kos), y WBA No. 8-â sgôr pwysau ysgafn trwm nad yw erioed wedi ymladd y tu allan i'r Deyrnas Unedig.
“Rwyf bob amser wedi dweud mai Dmitry Bivol oedd yr her anoddaf allan yna,” ychwanegodd Ramirez, “Dyna pam rydw i eisiau gwneud i'r frwydr hon ddigwydd. Rwy’n gwybod bod ganddo frwydr ar y gweill a gobeithio y bydd yn parhau’n ddiguro er mwyn i ni allu ymladd yr haf hwn.”
Mae “Zurdo” ar yr helfa!

Oscar De La Hoya’s strong support primary reason Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez signed with Golden Boy
LAS VEGAS (Mawrth 1, 2021) – Undefeated world light heavyweight contender and former world super middleweight champion, Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (41-0, 27 Kos), 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 (Oscar) 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 championDmitry) Bivol (17-0, 11 Kos) 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.”
Ramirez, who is tentatively slated to return to the ring in May, ar hyn o bryd yn safle Rhif. 1 gan y Cyngor Llyfrau, yn ogystal â No. 4 a Na. 5, yn y drefn honno, by the WBA and WBO.
