Former WBO 168lb world champion and light heavyweight contender Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramírez (43-0, 29 KOs) will face former WBA interim light heavyweight champion Dominic Boesel (32-2, 12 KOs) on May 14 at Toyota Arena in Ontario, CA, and will stream live exclusively on DAZN. The 12-round fight will pit the WBA #1 ranked Boesel against the #2 WBA ranked Ramirez.
The co-main event will feature undefeated lightweight William “El Camaron” Zepeda (25-0, 23 KOs) defending his WBA Continental Americas title against former world champion Rene “Gemelo” Alvarado (32-11, 21 KOs) in a 10-rounder.
Dominic Boesel Last fight against Robin Krasniqi was not convincing. He received to say the least a questionable SD decision to his favor in that fight.
Anyway, I hope that Zurdo becomes more active, at least two fights per year, preferable 3 – 4 fights, and I believe that he would probably manage all top 5 fighters today.
Im mexican and i like zurdo Ramírez I think he is a good fighter I’m just tired he fights taxi drivers I wana see him with class A fighters
True he is one of the 2 or 3 fighters I would favour over Canelo today, instead he’s fighting an Euro level type of fighter..
On paper WBA #1 vs #2 is really good, but I think Ramirez stops Boesel in the first half of this fight and I’m not the biggest Ramirez fan. I think Callum Smith or Vlasov would have been better fights, but I’m not surprised he’s fighting Boesel.
Zurdo has a win over Vlasov already. Boesel at least sets him up as the mandatory for the WBA.
He definitely does and you’re completely right, it will make him mandatory. I just said that I thought Vlasov would make for a better fight. Their fight was seven years ago and I think Vlasov is in better form now and better than Boesel. Just my opinion though.
Id like to see Zurdo get 10 more fights n retire at 53-0.this way we can finally be done with the “Mayweather has the record” era…
What a waste of talent Zurdo is ! Boesel is on a good Euro level that’s all, no interest in watching this fight..
Nothing to gain for Zurdo with this fight, except to keep active.
I hate Zurdo, he accuses the top light heavyweights of ducking him but all he ever fights are bums or hasbeens. His delusional fans are even worse cuz they accuse him of ducking him to fight Canelo. Lol. Hey Zurdo, fight Callum Smith. I bet he knocks you out!
Say what you what about Zurdo.. but he is tough as they come.. i hope he breaks Mayweather’s record..
There are fighters who have already beaten Mayweather’s record because they haven’t fought anybody. Zurdo could be one of those fighters. Some heavyweight bum beater club fighter named Bronco Billy Wright had a 50-0 record. Pretty much nobody has ever heard of him before, and the same will be for Ramirez when he retires.
I’m Cuban so no racism here; but Mexicans are the worst when it comes to cheating and record padding. It’s smart in the sense you’ll land bigger fights as long as you keep that 0 but for me it’s a pride thing, no tienes cojones que conazo!
Zurdo is along with Bivol the 2 best lt. heavies, but he is wasting his career. He is the only lt.heavy who could possibly beat Bivol, but is not fighting the fights he needs to fight right now.
What? You think Ramirez is the second best light heavyweight on Earth? I think you’re smoking some of that Jamaican grass again Julian. Ramirez would get his s*** pushed in against Beterbiev, shutout against Bivol and knocked out by Callum Smith. I’m certain of it, but all we will see is him against some German bum in his next fight. The guy struggled against nobody Jessie Hart at 168 ffs.
when does Zurdo fight somebody with a pulse??
