Published by Shawn C.

Former world champion and light
heavyweight Mexican boxing star Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramírez (43-0, 29 KOs) of
Mazatlán, Mexico, will face former WBA Interim Light Heavyweight World
Champion Dominic Boesel (32-2, 12 KOs) of Freyburg, Germany on Saturday,
May 14. The 12-round fight will pit the WBA #1 ranked, Boesel against the
#2 WBA ranked Ramirez in a winner takes all event that will propel the
winner to the door of a world championship fight. The co-main event will
feature one of the most exciting Mexican boxers in the lightweight
division, the undefeated William “El Camaron” Zepeda (25-0, 23 KOs),
defending his WBA Continental Americas Lightweight Title against the
resilient, former world champion, Rene “Gemelo” Alvarado (32-11, 21 KOs) of
Managua, Nicaragua in a 10-round lightweight fight. The event will take
place at Toyota Arena in Ontario, CA, and will stream live exclusively on
DAZN.

“I’m excited to be fighting back in California,” said Gilberto “Zurdo”
Ramírez. “May 14 is not too far away, and I feel great about how everything
is going. I know Dominic is the best light heavyweight from Germany, and
he’ll bring his best. This is a good step towards my overall goal, and I’m
glad I’ll be able to put on a great show come fight night.”

“I’m looking forward to going to California for a great fight against a
tough opponent in ‘Zurdo’ Ramirez,” said Dominic Boesel. “I’m sure this
fight will please the boxing fans worldwide watching live on DAZN.”

After spectacular back-to-back knockout victories over Cuba’s Sullivan
Barrera in July 2021 and Yunieski “El Monstro” Gonzalez in December 2021,
Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramirez is knocking on the door of a world championship
title shot when he faces #1 WBA ranked Dominic Boesel. ‘Zurdo’ is committed
to continuing his winning and knockout streaks as he proves that he is an
elite, feared fighter in the light heavyweight division. Having previously
held the WBO Super Middleweight World Championship, ‘Zurdo’ is ready to
conquer another weight class on his road to glory.

Ranked #1 by the WBA and #5 by the WBC in the light heavyweight division,
Dominic Boesel formerly held the WBA Interim Heavyweight World Championship
in 2020 and currently holds the IBO World Light Heavyweight Title. The
German fighter is set to make his U.S. debut on May 14 and is determined to
make a good showing for the passionate SoCal boxing fans. Defeating ‘Zurdo’
will cement his standing in the world rankings, putting him closer to
another world title shot. Having faced previous undefeated fighters like
Sami Enborn and Tony Averlant and winning multiple regional titles like the
WBA Continental Light Heavyweight Title and WBO Continental Light
Heavyweight Title, Boesel is ready to prove he is the best at 175lbs.
