You boys going out to Vegas to watch the Gypsy King bash up Wilder again?
My flight in June got cancelled, so was changing it to first 2 weeks in July, but holding off for a bit and going to stay until the 25th in case they make that one.

They've done well promoting that one, and it's in Vegas, too.
That said, it's at the new Virgin (Hard Rock), so not exactly a prime location.
Haha Ramirez is a big ticket seller and social activist in LA. I'm definitely referring to our sectarian lad and the UK side.

Taylor Ramirez being hidden away on Fite tv has all the buzz of a straight to VHS movie.
It’s a joke. Proper fight. I don’t often stay up these days to watch them live but will be for this one. Hopefully the move away from the exceptional McGuigan doesn’t harm Taylor. It's an early ring walk as well to precede ESPN's NBA playoff game. The other day I had to rack my brains to remember a loss Shane has taken as a coach. Eventually I got up to 2.

There’s also a growing body of evidence that Davison is actually pretty shite. I’ve had a decent bet on Taylor but would have had a lot more on had he still been with Shane.

Is any actual sample size? Boxercise Ben is everywhere but I struggle to list fight's he's cornered.

I see he annoyed Tibbs in the Canelo fight, though Mark was quite careful, I got the impression you won't see Ben anywhere near him again if i can be helped.

I'm surprised they didn't try and chuck it on at Mandalay, given they have Eddie's card there for the Linares & Haney fight next month. Not even sure the Had Rock holds that many, as it is.

He’s clearly close to BJS and Fury but both elect to be trained elsewhere having had a spell with him. That said for someone as well schooled as Taylor is the value a trainer can add is fairly limited.

Very good from Taylor, after an odd first couple rounds.

Strong enough finish from Ramirez. We're in robbery territory here.

Taylor is elite and absolute nails to go with it. Right up there with the best Britain has ever produced.

That was great stuff. It's some achievement to beat three existing champions.

Wonder what he does from here. He’s obviously completed 140 but might hang around if one or two of the stars at 135 step up. Alternatively, he steps up and tries to get a fight with Crawford. Size probably beats him in that one though.

Just seen Boxercise Ben’s tweet straight after the fight was to congratulate himself and not the fighter. Classy.

Smashing fight, and Taylor is abs top class. Knockdowns needed, as they were obv looking to do him on the cards. I never really got Ben, but figured he'd obviously helped Tyson when he was in a dark place, and done well to craft himself a career off the back of that. Longer he's around, the more he irks me
