Zurdo Ramirez combines victory over Billam-Smith, more results
Published
2 months agoon

Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez today united the titles of WBA and WBO Cruiser Wweight in Riyadh, defeating Chris Billam-Smith in the harsh main event, which deserves the main recognition on both sides.
Ramirez took the fight for the results of 116-112, 116-112 and 116-113, a clear win in a very competitive fight, in which Billam-Smith, as always, did not disappear.
Billam-Smith (20-2, 13 KO) saw his series of wins at the age of 11 came to an end, but he pressed to win the fight all the way. As usual, Billam-Smith seemed to be very little energy through the middle rounds, but also as usual, he spotted an amazing determination, this time fighting with a quite rocky eyelid, which had to get a little impaired.
He also had the best opponent in Ramirez (47-1, 30 KO), which seems to have really settled in his best form as a cruiser’s weight, not cutting so much weight before the fighting, and looking robust and very capable of spending with the best dogs on this weight, and at that moment only the level did not test only two fights into his tough campaign, in which he would include belt.
(The title of WBC is a hero in Noroair Mikaeljan, who is associated with Don King, and therefore it is currently an inactive belt.)
Arnold Barboz Jr. defeats Jose Ramirez at a distance
Ramirez (29-2, 18 KO) looked like much older 32 than his opponent, and Barboza (31-0, 11 KO) had a really nice reflection in the form of the April win on Sean McCcomb. If Barboza were bored in this fight, the child is understandable, but the good news would be that he took him as a wake up and returned to business.
Barboza was not amazing or anything here, but he won this fight solidly and clearly. The results were 96-94, 96-94 and 97-93, and these are close, because you could wisely shoot fights, and I thought it was strenuous to find four rounds for Ramirez, which looked too often on a worried fight.
For now, Barboza is now a closed claimant to 140 and you would hope that he will finally get the title opportunity soon, but now it is a strange division with stripes.
For Ramirez, we blessed him earlier, even at a profit. When opponents open to the fire brigade, he stands out. When opponents can control their own stake with a stab, he has a habit sleeping in a uninteresting fight, which does not benefit his skills.
William Zepeda edge next to Tevin Farmer
Zepeda (32-0, 27 KO) was dropped in the fourth round of this fight, a bit more than knocking out the “flash”, but not something that was in real trouble, but the peach of the shot that landed in purity. But he deserved this win, which took place at the divided decision, and all three judges fired a fight 95-94, two to Zepeda and one for a farmer.
The bad left hook shot a slightly wider fight, but just lightly, at 96-93 for Zepeda. Farmer (33-7-1, 8 KO) put a huge effort in this fight and although these are two plain losses, the losses have reached a fairly high level. Especially this time the farmer is painful, but the world blessed that he still has a lot to sacrifice. It will be a type of “guard” who offers forward and although not what his career wants to be, there will be a better chance of nervous of some guys, and one of those times can simply do it.
28 -year -old Zepeda has flaws and is a ready product. Fighters at this stage do not change so much, it will not be defensively solid, it will always be a problem. He will win or lose based on what he has when he stands now. It can solve diminutive problems, but it will always be defensive.

The plan is that Zepeda will face Shakur Stevenson in 2025 titled WBC Stevenson. Zepeda received WBC in this momentary belt, even though it was only a 10-round fight, because sanctioning bodies do not have a actual standard and create their own rules so that they can follow them or not, it doesn’t really matter. But Zepeda was already there as not. 1 Pretender, in any case they received sanctioning money from it.
This fight also achieved its main goal, which consisted in introducing Zepeda with someone who can at least repeat the experience of fighting a technician like Stevenson. Zepeda may simply not be able to defeat Shakura, but he is now as ready as he can really see, and his power, cardio and starting power always give him a chance.
Oscar Collazo has now united at 105
27-year-old Collazo broke off the hands of Niyomtrong, no matter how long the Thai owner of the titles still threatens the hero, winning three knocking down and the seventh round to add the title of WBA to his Herda Pasa WBO.
Collazo (11-0, 8 KO) was clearly a younger, stronger man in this fight, because Niyomtrong (25-1, 9 KO) came with one fight since 2022, and it was only two months ago and it was not simple. With his age – 34 -year -old pushes a 105 pounds on a player – and free time, this quick turn may not be the best thing for a man also known as “CP Freshmart knockout”, but time ticks.

Niyomtrong stayed once in sixth and twice in the seventh, before judge Ricky Gonzalez canceled it without counting on the third knocking. It was quite a dominant performance for Collazo, who clearly made his claim as the best warrior in the Branch Branch.
The Collazo plan is to become the first unquestioned champion of four stripes in the history of the division, and now the chances of it look good, he is a great warrior.
More results
- Oscar Duarte UD-10 Batyr Akhmedov: A good, strenuous fight and another hard loss for Akhmedov, which drops to 10-4 (9 KO), but is damn better, being a warrior than this percentage of win would lead you to think. Duarte (28-2-1, 22 KO) got the results 96-94, 97-93 and 98-92, but it was more competitive than the latter, would make you think, despite the fact that the judges got the winner in a hard fight. Duarte has made more obvious damage, but Akhmedov also fits a handful of times in which he was quite clearly shocked, and still has something to offer at the age of 33, it will not be simple if he becomes more like the type of guard; He would be a high -class guardian, a legal test to pass. Duarte stays as a potential pretender at 135/140.
- Ziyad almaayouf D-6 Juan Garcia: The result of jokes, because Garcia (5-6-1, 0 KO) was absolutely and clearly the winner of this fight, but we will continue to endure the idea that Almaayouf (6-0-1, 1 KO) is a real perspective with a substantial advantage. It is simple to understand because boxing actually works, the desire to have a Saudi boxer star. But to really produce it, it takes real time, and Almayouf is not this guy. This is his second in a row, in which he went to a draw, and the last one was overthrown to DQ victory for Ziyad, because the opponent-niski level of fighting did not pass the drug test after the fight in California. If Saudi Arabia develops a stern amateur program, more for long -term training than the results in amateur competitions, yes, the star or a few will develop. But those who can do this can now be about six years vintage. Almaayouf is 24 years vintage and unlikely to become much better than now, there is a clear lack of skill that even someone as low as Garcia has fully used or in this fight. The comment was very careful with his words, but no one would be able to watch this fight and think that Ziyad deserved the better than a loss.

Roy Jones Jr. He spent a few minutes, breaking up the great upcoming fights, including Chris Eubank Jr. VS Conor Benn, Canelo Alvarez vs Terenca Crawford and a rematch between Artur Betterbievem vs Dmitry Biblical. Here are some of what he had to say about these duels.
O Eubank vs. Benn
“First of all, I’m just polished, it happened. I love both guys, I don’t hate any of them. So let the best man win. I think Chris is a bigger guy and should have an advantage, but Conor is hell, especially with his Lovt hook. It can happen with a large blow and we saw it with Liam Smith and is not a large blow.
“So, I hope for a great fight, a great night. I think that Chris is probably coming in with an advantage because he is a greater warrior, but we’ll see what will happen.”
On the Canelo vs. duel Crawford
“The weight will not be a factor, the factor will be how Canelo decides to fight. Canelo goes out and does what Canelo should do, Canelo gains a fight. If Canelo goes out and does what he should, Crawford gains a fight.
“(Crawford must) control the center of the ring. If Crawford can control the center, he wins.”
About Betterbiev vs biscvol 2
“I think it will be another great fight, another epic fight. I think that this time Arthur will be more artur, which is good for him, or it may be bad for him when you go to kill the biblical Bible to hit you with them. Kill with him, you give him a chance to fight.
“We’ll see what happens. I think that Arthur learned a lot from it, I am sure that the biblical also learned from it.”

David Benavidez is now emerging for Betterbiev or biblical after a rematch
Published

June 5, 2025
As a super middle Leweight, David Benavidez won, but he never received a real “great fight” under the weight that would be a shot in Canelo Alvarez.
If someone, like someone in boxes-sport, who works as opposed to any other in terms of event to the event and progression of career-benavidez, did everything possible to find the fight against Canelo, and although Canelo could be seen as technical correct that Fan Benavide and he had no one peak Fighters, the idea is slightly distributed compared to Canelo’s actual choices.
What Jaime Mungia or Edgar Berlanga, two opponents of Canelo in 2024, did that Benavidez did not? Did Munguia really introduce an amazing amount of more fans to fight than Benavidez could have? Berlanga certainly did. And none of them had an as good CV as Benavidez, a multiple title holder.
Benavidez had rocky times in his career. Twice devoid of global titles, once on positive cocaine testing, once on the missing weight in “Banka” in 2020, but he learned, matured, grew up. He is not the same man he was a few years ago, and not the same warrior.
Now two fights in his campaign as a slight weight, Benavidez (30-0, 24 KO) won with David Morrell Jr., descending from the canvas to get a decision within 12 rounds. The 28-year-old does not intend to reverse his sights to Canelo, who is in line in the queue to Terenka “Bud” Crawford in September, so the question about the elusive great fight should be a Benevidez, who are trying to land with the winner of February 22 of the rematch between Artur BetiveView and Dmitry Biblical.
It can be tough or of course. While boxing begins to consolidate, for the better or worse, under the banner of the Riyjad Turki Alalshikha season, there are still protruding values, and the greatest of the party are the most significant boxing masters, for whom Benavidez has been a true soldier for many years.
Benavidez certainly could get a fight; This is not before, and if Alalshikh is willing to pay, we blessed PBC, then Will sends fighters to cards. But their own contract with the best Amazon movie is almost exclusively profitable and is not dangerously low under the stars, and to be sincere, it is only a matter of time before the names of PBC move to the Riyadh group, including the best players such as Benavidez and Gervonta “Tank” Davis.
In particular, Benavidez seems likely because we know that he wants the biggest fights and is not afraid to test and choose a challenging path; If that were the case, he would not fight for a hazardous Morrell, whose own name was relatively low in the case of the main PPV fight.
Betterbiev (21-0, 20 KO) and Bivol (23-1, 12 KO) may not be available this year. If Bivol gains a rematch, which is completely possible, a rubber fit between them can happen later in 2025, if he gains better profit again, there is really a chance that it may consider suspending gloves at the age of 40, doing almost a lot. Boxer. His history of injury contributes to these opportunities, if Betterbiev goes 2-0 against the biblical, excellent warrior, and confirmed himself as clearly as the undisputed champion, he prefers him until his body finally reveals him during Figt.
Benavidez has time, although he is certainly tired of waiting for this call to the brand. A bigger question may be the time and desire for Betterbiev or the biblical emergence emerging from their competition, regardless of whether they are two fights or three.
And if this is not none of them, it can simply end the division, so that Benavidez takes over power, somehow sleep in a welterweight, he never took the torch from the previous star, Floyd Mayweather.
In the meantime, David Benavidez simply secured the real best warrior about the quality of the star, if not yet an opportunity for a star. Either he will get such a chance and try to take her by force, or he will simply have to build a fight for a fight. At this stage, no doubt in his subscription to do it in one way or another.

Canelo vs. Crawford: Fight agreement reaching for September

According to Canelo Alvarez and Terenka Crawford, they reached an agreement on the September fight in Las Vegas Keith Idec from the ring.
The fight, if he probably guesses, will be a seasonal event of Riyadh.
Canelo vs. Crawford has been a project for the Turka Alalshikh promoter since last year, though 34 -year -old Canelo, initially expressed a lack of interest in the face of a much narrower opponent, feeling that he would not have received meaning, even if he won the fight.
However, the Mexican Supergivid changed its melody to inch, and ultimately the lower result was clear: he would come down to money, which both firefighters stated, is a key motivating factor, if not . A key motivating factor at the moment of their career.
Of course, everyone was offered enough.
Canelo (62-2-2, 39 KO) fought twice last year, defeating Jaime Munguia in May and Edgar Berlang in September and expects to maintain the same schedule this year. It is likely that he will fight on May 3, potentially against the owner of the super medium weight IBF William Scull, which would allow Alvarez to be fully united by the division after transferring compulsory defense against SCULL last year, rest your belt.
37-year-old Crawford (41-0, 31 KO) fought only once in 2024, a hardly earned victory over Israil Madrimov in the first fight of Crawford at 154 pounds. He won the titles at 135, 140, 147 and 154, and the jump to 168, to face the best man in the division, and the greatest name of the era is the risk that is worth taking, not only for money, but also a bold attempt to potentially be perceived as a great but real warrior.
Crawford fought only once a year in 2020–24, so it is quite possible that he will not have a fight before he faces Canelo in September. The most likely Date of Canelo vs. Crawford would be 13 or 20 September, although the exact date was not reported.
What do you think we see with Canelo vs. Crawford? Is Canelo just too massive and physically robust, or maybe Crawford may remain invincible and create a further story?
