Taylor against Ramirez four belts title unification
There are times when you don’t want to write because in addition to two champions there are two people you like, they inspire you confidence, sympathy, they give a pure clear image of boxing and these are Taylor and Ramirez.
Las Vegas, Virgin Hotels, reunification of the titles WBC, WBA, IBF WBO, protagonists: Josh Taylor, 30 years (17,13ko). The Tartan Tornado, and Jose Carlo Ramirez, 28 years (26.17ko) Jaguar.
Looking at their faces, you can immediately see that they have sweated a lot before getting there, champions but humble, no chattering out of place, home gym, friends; two young boxers totally dedicated to their job.
A Scotsman against an American by birth, but with 100% Mexican warrior blood, what to expect, an epic battle. who will win? well here who bets, bets on Taylor, we think that it will be twelve rounds of fire and in the last rounds Ramirez will win, but it will be on the edge, even if it could also end up before…
Tornado is incredible, technically close to perfection, speed, precision, series and movements as an Olympian, combined with a technical intelligence, an ability to read the match and a power not deadly, but very discreet, which allows him to demolish opponents; Ramirez a little less technical, a little slower, but deadly in launching his series, in flushing out his opponent and launching devastating combinations.
Having said that we think, or better: we do not know how much jaw Taylor has, Jose has cin.We think that Josh in his game, deadly and phenomenal, will find the Ramirez’s barrage that will put him back some blows and we will have to see how Josh will react with the head, because now no one has put him back (or rather they did but not with the stubbornness of Jose…) making him feel the power. )making him feel a different power, and there will come into play mix of factors and then clash, on the one hand the great Scottish warriors because Josh has these in his blood, and those Mexicans: the masters of the ring as stubbornness and tenacity. We predict an incredible challenge, remembering that the respective corners, there are super head coach (Robert Garcia and Ben Davison) who have prepared the match to make it go in one direction, it will be a chess match with fire, that you can see on all the pieces. We would like to be at the edge of the ring or even a little further away, for sure it will be a great match, Taylor should win, according to the bettors, but we are leaning towards Ramirez, (he has certainly more hunger), I repeat it is our impression….
The premise of all this is that (always according to us) Jose will try not to start Josh with his series and movements, he will try to block his way, and hit him hard to the body, and if Taylor will not be able to play his game, with series and surgical movements he will have problems; Ramirez is the underdog so he will have an advantage…If Taylor will be able, thanks to his technique to overcome this barrier he will win, but he will have to sweat, and we repeat that in our opinion he will lose a little bit but he will lose…
The judges will be the same who have already had both against Postol I think, but we are in America and the direction is Top Rank and ESPN. We have not seen spars of the two champions or anything else but we are sure that we will see a great challenge that will really spark from the sound of the first gong.
