Top Rank, the promoters for this event, picked a bad night to stage the card, as they’re competing with the mega-fight between David Benavidez and Caleb Plant, which is taking place tonight at the same time but on Showtime PPV. Unfortunately, you can’t throw Raamirez in with someone good like Subriel Matias, Regis Prograis, or Richardson Hitchins and expect him to win. With the right careful match-making, Ramirez could potentially win another world title if he fights a weak champion or for one of the vacant belts against a lesser contender. Like Teofimo Lopez, Ramirez has gone downhill and is no longer capable of beating the best. The 140-lb division has improved dramatically since Ramirez held two titles in the weight class, and there are better fighters than him now, a lot, and it’s unclear what Top Rank is going to do with him. Preview: This fight will show whether the 30-year-old Ramirez still hs anything left after a year of inactivity and lackluster performances in his last three contests.
