Jose Ramirez vs Viktor Postol

[Spicoli]

Much as a don't like it Postol boxed his ears in 12th. Jesus I've violated own rule. Have it a draw 6-6 somehow but feels like Postol had better control and execution .

I just don’t see how Postol won the 12th. Postol didn’t seem to land much while Ramirez landed some decent punches

[powerpuncher]

116-112
115-113
114-114

Ramirez wins. I feel like those are very fair scores.

Was going for Ramirez 7 5 either way or draw is good I guess but ranurez better further about Crawford fight and I'd have have Taylor pretty big favorite

Ramirez says that the long training camp burned him out. I can understand that. He was supposed to fight in February and then May.

Ramirez eyes Taylor after defending WBC and WBO titles against Postol

Jose Ramirez retained his WBC and WBO light-welterweight belts after overcoming Viktor Postol by majority decision in Las Vegas.

The duo had two different fight dates cancelled previously due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but it was third time lucky for Ramirez as the champion edged Postol inside the MGM Grand's bubble on Saturday.

In a far from easy bout, judges scored the fight 114-114, 115-113 and 116-112 in favour of American Ramirez, who improved to 26-0.

Postol (31-3) caused some problems for Ramirez but the 36-year-old Ukrainian was unable to do enough for victory.

It was Ramirez's first fight since his TKO of Maurice Hooker in 2019 and the American lamented the absence of fans amid the COVID-19 crisis.



"I guess I work off the crowd, a spark and motivation that's bigger than myself," Ramirez said.

"I felt like I was in a sparring session. But we live and learn. I'm just happy I got the win. And it's been a long training camp, I was kind of burned out a little bit mentally, too."

There were more than just titles at stake for Ramirez against Postol in Las Vegas.

The 28-year-old is now eyeing a unification showdown against IBF and WBA holder Josh Taylor (16-0).

Ramirez added: "I need to go back to what I do best, being myself. I think I can show more. When I come across Josh Taylor, I'm gonna show it."

I edged it for cleaner sharper work picking spots and controlling the real-estate. But a good fight
