Top Rank Eyeing Jose Ramirez’s Return Fight in December

Published 08/05/2021, 12:30 PM EDT

The former super-lightweight champ, Jose Ramirez, might storm inside the boxing ring soon. The last time he made an appearance was in May 2021, when he locked horns with Josh Taylor for the undisputed title. This was his biggest bout, which promised a string of accolades. However, Ramirez ended up on the losing vertical that night and surrendered his hard-earned WBC and WBO super-lightweight titles.

But Ramirez has taken that loss on his chin, and now he’s in for his next challenge. More than anyone, he’s keen on strengthening his profile and regaining his throne.

Top Rank Promotions already has an opponent for him in Jose Pedraza. And as per The Athletic, they’re looking to stage this fight around December. However, there are no confirmed dates for this fight in December because of football scheduling.

Ramirez would be open to fighting against anyone from the roster. In his previous fight against Taylor, Ramirez began well. He was well ahead with his pace, timing, and punches. However, as the fight progressed, ‘Jaguar’ lost control and the Scottish boxer took advantage of the same. The latter even dropped Ramirez twice in this fight, and that eventually turned out to be a difference in this bout.
