In the post-fight interview, ‘Jaguar’ shed light on his interaction with Josh Taylor after their in-ring battle.
“He did what I was expecting him to do, you know. That’s show respect, and he showed respect. That’s all he did. He showed respect he showed that was being a competitor throughout the week and he wanted to win so bad that he wanted to get in my mind. But he did apologize because he came to find out that my family was, my son was around,” said Jose Ramirez.
Taylor has also revealed that the only reason he trash-talked his opponent was to hype their recent fight. In his post-fight speech, ‘The Tartan Tornado’ praised the Mexican-American boxer for his efforts. While the first encounter saw both men give their best, it further leaves the door open for a rematch.
