| LUIS RAMOS |
|
|
Name: Luis Ramos
Record: 16-0, 8 KO
Division: Lightweight: 135 lbs
Luis Ramos, of Frank Espinoza’s “Espinoza Boxing Club”, is already looked upon as one of the hottest young prospects in boxing. After a decorated amateur career spanning more than 100 fights and 6 national championships, Ramos turned to the professional ranks in late 2007. Having already built an impressive record of 16 wins, 8 coming by way of knockout, Ramos’ following in the Southern California area is impressive, to say the least. Ramos is never in a dull fight, and fights with a crowd-pleasing style. Keep an eye on Ramos in the near future, as his next scheduled bout is set to be televised on Telefutura on September 17, 2010, from Los Angeles, California. |

WV2 TERMINATED SONSONA/PUERTO RICO CHAMPIONSHIP FACTORY |
|
By Dax Ramos dax@officialscorecard.com
First of all let me say I’m from Bayamon, Puerto Rico and growing up I met Vazquez Sr. I didn’t live there but played ball in Residencial Celso Barbosa where I still have friends and I’ll will be interviewing WV2 around April. So yes I might be little bias but not blind.
So, let’s start with the Arroyo brothers McWilliams and McJoe the Puerto Ricans with the Irish names. These two young prospects have looked great and they will be built up to become good contenders and possible champions. So let’s get to the main event, Wilfredo Vazquez Jr. Lets start by saying yes he talked his garbage but he backed it up 100%. I laughed when most people were picking Sonsona to beat Wilfredo, the reason why Wilfredo might not have had a great amateur career but believe me Wilfredo being raised in Celso Barbosa there’s a great boxing gym right there and this guy has great experience in the amateur realm, he didn’t just pick up his boxing gloves yesterday.
Moving on to the fight, the first round was basically an even round the edge going to Sonsona, the 2nd round Wilfredo measured and felt his power and targeted Sonsona for termination. Sonsona looked like child fighting with a man, Wilfredo bounced Sonsona off the ropes like a rag doll, 3rd round it was a matter of time, even my friend from
(Boxingscene.com) Ryan was hoping that Sonsona would pull it off, but he didn’t, the 4th round was Wilfredo with calm power shots to the ribs and chin which ended the fight. Sonsona had to quit to a bigger, stronger and more skillful WV2. The Filipino training camps have to stop thinking that they have the next Manny Pac. And start building up there fighters to big fights. There’s only one Manny Pac and he’s trained by Roach. I was hoping there will be rivalry building up between Puerto Rican Fighters and Filipino ones, but there isn’t. Puerto Rican fighters are trained to almost perfection they go through an amateur coach then the pro trainer. It’s a factory folks!!!
Junma Lopez will make short work of Concepcion. The Filipino fighters just look to raw to be fighting at this level, let’s not forget before Roach Manny was getting beat. Well it looks within two years Puerto Rico will have at least 4 to 6 champs. I’m not against Filipino Fighters or the possible Rivalry with Puerto Rico, but to tell you the truth Filipino Fighters are just not ready yet! |
