"EnVivo!" Podcast [ Episode #83 ] PREVIEW: JOSH TAYLOR VS. JOSE RAMIREZ
The "Envivo!" Podcast crew talk One of the premier fights to make in boxing is finally on the docket as IBF/WBA junior welterweight champion Josh Taylor meets WBC/WBO titlist Jose Ramirez for the undisputed championship on Saturday, May 22. A site has not yet been determined.
"This is the best boxing has to offer, two elite fighters in the prime of their careers colliding in a legacy-defining matchup for the undisputed championship of the world," said Top Rank chairman Bob Arum in a press release. "It's a true 50-50 fight, one that the fans and both fighters demanded."
Ramirez (26-0, 17 KOs) defeated Amir Imam by unanimous decision to win the vacant WBC strap in March 2018. Ramirez gained the WBO strap when he knocked out Maurice Hooker in July 2019 in a title unification bout. The California native last competed in August, winning by majority decision over former world champion Viktor Postol to retain his belts. Ramirez is excited about the opportunity to make history and become the second-ever undisputed champion 140 pounds, joining Terence Crawford.
