Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez, the former WBO super middleweight world champion, will aim to make a statement and show that he has the confidence to hold two divisional titles. He began his career with nearly 15 years of professional experience, defeating opponents like Maxim Vlasov, Jessie “Hard Work” Hart, and “King” Arthur Abraham, whom he beat to win the WBO super middleweight title. The one blemish on his record is a heroic effort he gave up against Dmitrii Bivol in November of 2022. Ramirez is now prepared to fight again and compete against the top competitors in the division.
