(L-R) – Oscar de la Hoya, Gilberto Ramirez & Bernard Hopkins



LAS VEGAS (August 23, 2021) - Undefeated Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (42-0, 28 KO) feels he’ll get his first World light heavyweight title shot because he believes in himself, his promoter Golden Boy Promotions, and his Mexican heritage.


The former World Boxing Organization (WBO) super middleweight World champion is a leading light heavyweight contender, evaluat în prezent Nu. 2 de Organizația Mondială a box (WBO) și nr. 5 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF), precum și nr. 9 în Inelul independent rankings for the first time in the 175-pound division.


After Ramirez’ recent knockout victory over Sullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 KO), positioning him for a World title shot, the boxing world looked forward to “Zurdo” challenging World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight Champion Dmitry Bivol mai târziu în acest an. Bivol had all but assured a showdown with Ramirez through social media posts, but suddenly he changed his tune and was dreaming of a match this November that isn’t going to happen against WBA and WBC Super Middleweight Champion “Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (56-1-2, 38 KO).


The 30-year Ramirez has openly called for a fight with Bivol or either of the other World light heavyweight title holders, Artur Beterbiev (WBC/IBF) și Joe Smith, Jr. (WBO), whose rumored unification fight doesn’t appear to be on the horizon.


Între timp, all three reigning World light heavyweight champions have gone dark, at least in terms of fighting Ramirez. Is “Zurdo” too risky for them, or are they just hesitant to fight a proven Mexican challenger?


“I leave my opponents to my promoter, Golden Boy, and its matchmaker, Robert Diaz,” Ramirez explained. “They’re aware of what I want, and I trust they are diligent and will do whatever is best for me. Ca un luptător, I’ve been clear that all the World light heavyweight champs are on my hit list; and I don’t retract my statement or shy away from the fights as most of them have. In this world, all I have are my word and balls, and I don’t break ‘em for anyone. I fight not just for myself, but for my pride and the spirit of Mexican people. We are proud of our heritage and have been the best fighters. Russians know I will take out both Bivol and Beterbiev; Joe Smith, Jr. is just an appetizer.”


“Canelo” and Julio Cesar Gonzalez (2003) are the only native Mexicans to be crowned World Light Heavyweight Champions, but everybody in boxing knows Mexican boxers are called warriors for a good reason.


“I think they’re all reluctant to fight a Mexican light heavyweight like me,” Ramirez added. “There’s a reason why Bivol is retracting his statement and staying quiet after all his social media antics. If he was serious, it’s an easy fight to make, and he knows it (both fighters have fought on DAZN). I’m also hearing (Joshua) Buatsi’s name in the mix, but I would absolutely destroy him. All these guys talk the talk but rarely walk the walk. I am a Mexican warrior; everybody knows the way we are built!"


Other potential contenders in the mix, excluding the reigning world champions, may include Badou Jack, Eleider Alvarez, Maxim Vlasov (Ramirez defeated him as super middleweights), și Lyndon Arthur.

“My time will come, Ramirez concluded. “I know Golden Boy is working hard on making this a reality and when that time comes, all these guys will have nowhere to run or hide. I leave who I fight next up to my matchmaker, Robert Diaz. I trust that Golden Boy will do whatever is best for my career.


“I’m not frustrated, this is part of the process. I’m a veteran in this game. Many will talk, but they will fall when it’s time to act. Din nou, I trust Golden Boy will do what has been promised and I look forward to what fight they will present me with.”

Perfect connection Gilberto“Zurdo” Ramirez & Trainer Julian Chua

LAS VEGAS (Mai 25, 2021) – Back in February of 2019, Organizația Mondială a box (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 KO) 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 KO) and preparing for a mega-fought later this year, ideally, against undefeated World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Light Heavyweight ChampionDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 KO).

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 înregistrare, and only 27 when they first met.

Ramirez’ managerDavid 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, cândTommy Karpency (29-6-1) nu a putut să continue și după patru runde, followed last December 18lea cu un 10lea round stoppage ofAlfonso Lopez (32-3) to capture the North American Boxing Federation (NABF) titlu.

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 withOscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions, este în prezent clasat pe nr. 3 by the WBA and WBO. “Zurdo” returns to action July 9lea in Los Angeles againstSullivan Barrera (22-3, 14 KO).

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

Another is joining his idol and fellow MexicanJulio Cesar Chavez în 50-0 Club, 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 Whitaker în 1993 in their WBC World welterweight title fight.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________

    “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 Pepla 62, Nu Face. 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 toSammy Angott by 10-round decision in 1943.

    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.

    Rocky Marciano șiBrian Nielson (49), Larry Holmes (48), Ricardo Lopez (47), Joe Calzaghe (46-0) șiJim Barry (45) all came close to 50-0 memberships. Lopez (51-0-1) fought a draw in his 48lea 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 (Martie 31, 2021) – Former world super middleweight championGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (41-0, 27 KO) is on the hunt and his targets are undefeated RussiansArtur Beterbiev șiDmitry Bivol, respectiv, 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, este în prezent clasat pe nr. 4 și nr. 5, respectiv, by the WBA and WBO.

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

In his first fight in 519 zi (Octombrie. 12, 2019), Beterbiev showed signs of rust and possibly age (36) în timpul lui 10lea round technical knockout of his relatively unknown German opponentAdam Deines (19-2-1, 10 KO).  Acum, Beterbiev is talking about next fighting the winner of the April 10lea Joe Smith, Jr. (26-3, 21 KO) contraMaxim Vlasov (45-3, 26 KO) aprilie 10lea for the vacant WBO 175-pound division title. Vlasov, întâmplător, 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 luni, since winning a 12-round unanimous decision againstLenin Castillo.  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 KO), 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

Gilberto „Zurdo” Ramirez îl țintește pe Saul „Canelo” Alvarez pentru viitorul mega-showdown

LAS VEGAS (Ianuarie 21, 2021) - Dacă are 29 de aniGilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez (41-0, 27 KO), fără îndoială deja unul dintre top 25 Luptători mexicani din toate timpurile, își face drumul pe măsură ce intră în primii ani, în cele din urmă va avea un mega-showdown cu compatriotulSaul „Canelo” Alvarez (54-2-32, 36 KO) înainte de a se îndrepta spre Sala Famei.

"Orice este posibil, și va fi minunat pentru fani dacă se va lupta împotriva mea cu „Canelo”,A spus Ramirez. „Cu doi mexicani în ring, știi că va fi un război din prima rundă. Vom vedea ce se va întâmpla în viitor. ”

În primul rând, deși, Ramirez are o afacere de care să se ocupe, începând cu un potențial consiliu interimar de box mondial (WBC) lupta împotriva titlului mondial cu greutate ușoară 2012 S.U.A.. Olimpic„Domnul” Marcus Browne (23-1, 16 KO).

WBC a ordonat recent nr. 1 evaluat Ramirez vs.. Nu Face. 4 Browne. Echipa Zurdo și echipa Browne au până în februarie 5lea pentru a stabili o afacere înainte de a merge la licitație. Ramirez este promovat de propria companie, Promotii Zurdo, în timp ce Browne este reprezentat de PBC.

Dacă totul merge așa cum intenționează Ramirez, va avea o luptă de unificare mondială fie cu campionul mondial WBC / IBF cu greutate ușoarăArtur Beterbiev (15-0, 15 KO) sau titularul titlului WBA SuperDmitry Bivol (17-0, 11 KO, preferabil mai târziu în 2021, restricții COVID-19 în așteptare.

„Nu mă uit niciodată la orice luptă,”A remarcat Ramirez. „În acest sport, în orice noapte dată, cel mai bun om va câștiga. Tot ce pot face este să mă antrenez din greu și să mă pregătesc pentru a fi tot ce pot pentru mine atunci când apare ocazia. Maro, Bivol, Beterbiev sau Canelo, nu contează cu cine lupt; Mă antrenez întotdeauna din greu pentru a mă asigura că sunt gata când lupta este aici ".

Ramirez a devenit primul luptător mexican care a capturat o coroană mondială super-medie 2016, când southpaw-ul atletic a dominat temeinic campionul în apărare„Regele” Arthur Abraham (44-4), câștigând fiecare rundă pentru o decizie unanimă de 12 runde (120-106 X 3) pentru a deveni campion mondial WBO.

În 2019, Alvarez s-a alăturat titlului WBOJulio Cesar Gonzalez (2003) ca singurii campioni ai lumii la categoria grea ușoară născută în Mexic, când a oprit 34-3-1Sergey Kovalev în 11lea runda pentru a deveni campion mondial WBO la categoria grea ușoară. De 9 ori, 4-campionul mondial al diviziei, Alvarez, a renunțat la coroana WBO pentru greutate ușoară, fără a o apăra.

Ramirez este plecat la 5lea-cea mai bună serie de victorii pentru a începe o carieră profesională în istoria boxului mexican în spatele a patru săli de renume: idolul săuJulio Cesar Chavez (87), Carlos Zarate (52), Ricardo Lopez (47) șiMarco Antonio Barrera (43). 

Meciul de vis pentru „Zurdo," desigur, este pe drum împotriva Canelo. Ce zici să-l ai în Cinco de Mayo sau în Ziua Independenței Mexicane? 

Între atunci și acum, totuși, Ramirez are nevoie de o victorie care să definească cariera împotriva unui adversar primetime, cum ar fi Beterbiev sau Bivol, pentru a pregăti scena pentru o confruntare Canelo.

„Vom vedea dacă este (Canelo) capabil să o facă din nou (lupta ca o greutate ușoară),”A adăugat Ramirez. „A luptat deja la această greutate o dată (grea lumină) și nu văd de ce ar trebui să fie o problemă decât dacă a fost o întâmplare. Dar înțeleg că el și echipa sa vor trebui să fie mult mai precauți în această categorie de greutate, comparativ cu diviziunile inferioare, din cauza riscului mai mare. De asemenea, am mai fost unul lângă altul și chiar ne-am luptat. Știe că nu sunt doar un Kovalev sau un Callum Smith.

„O să fie (Canelo vs. Stangaci") fii un clasic instantaneu și o modalitate excelentă de a prezenta în lume boxul mexican de top. Cred că fanilor le va plăcea această bătălie dintre Sinaloa (Ramirez) și Jalisco (Alvarez)."

41-0 Gilberto “Stangaci” Ramirez all in for WBC Interim World light heavyweight clash with “Domn” Marcus Browne

LAS VEGAS (Ianuarie 14, 2021) — The first super middleweight world champion of Mexican decent, neînvinsă Gilberto “Stangaci” Ramirez (41-0, 27 KO) is all in for a potential World Boxing Council (WBC) Interim light heavyweight World title fight against 2012 S.U.A.. Olimpic “Domn” Marcus Browne (23-1, 16 KO).

The WBC ordered Ramirez vs. Browne this past Monday because reigning WBC light heavyweight World champion Artur Beterbiev (15-0, 15 KO) 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. Echipa Zurdo și echipa Browne au până în februarie 5lea to work out a deal before it’ll go to purse bid. Martinez is promoted by his own company, Promotii Zurdo, în timp ce Browne este reprezentat de 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.

“În plus, 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.

Luna trecuta, Ramirez fought for the first time in 20 luni, stopping defending champion Alfonso “El Tigre” Lopez (32-4, 25 KO) in the 10th round of theBattle of Rio Grande” main event, 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 “Rege” Arthur Abraham(44-4), câștigând fiecare rundă pentru o decizie unanimă de 12 runde (120-106 X 3) to become the World Boxing Organization (WBO) campion mondial.

Ramirez successful defended his WBO title five times against 33-4-1 Maksym Bursak (DEC12), 22-0 Jessie Hart (DEC12), 25-0-1 Habib Ahmed (25-0-1), 23-0 Roemer Alexis Angulo (DEC12), and Hart again in a rematch (DEC12). “Stangaci” moved up to the light heavyweight division in 2019, destroying 29-6-1 Tommy Karpency, 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 S.U.A.. Campionate naționale PAL și 2012 S.U.A.. Campionatele Naționale, prior to representing the U.S. at the Olympic Games in London.

Browne, 30, is a past WBA Interim light heavyweight World champion. He has beaten a pair of word champions, 22-1-3 Badou Jack (DEC12) și 25-7-1 Gabriel Campillo (25-7-2). Other notable opponents he has defeated include 21-0 Radivoje Kalajdzic (DEC8), 20-2 Thomas Williams (KO6), 28-0 Sean Monaghan (TKO2), și 18-1-1 Lenin Castillo (DEC10). Browne’s last fight was August 3, 2019, when he suffered his first loss as a professional to former world champion Jean Pascal(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, in speranta, this fight can happen for both of us.
