| 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. |

UFC 103 PREVIEW
UFC 103 Preview
The Ultimate Fighting Championship makes its debut in Dallas for UFC 103 tonight. The biggest organization in mixed martial arts doesn’t like competition and wanted to put together a fight card to go head to head against Floyd Mayweather return to the ring. As a business, that makes great sense, but the fights on the card are a little lacking in my eyes.

K9 shares his thoughts on why boxing needs to change, his past fights and how he only ate tuna and crackers for the Joel Julio fight, his upcoming title bout and how he plans on giving back to his community.

What does it take to become the Pound-for-Pound best fighter in the world? Is it measured by accomplishment, by the names of fallen foes left in a fighter’s wake to reach the top?

The International Boxing Association has trimmed its men's lineup from 11 weight categories to 10 for the 2012 London Olympics.
The move was made Monday to accommodate women's boxing at the games, which the IOC Executive Board unanimously agreed on last month. However, the IOC would not allow the AIBA to add to its total number of boxers.
