Unified WBC/WBO Super Lightweight 🌎 World champion Mexican-American José Ramírez (25-0, 17 KO’s), and his tough Ukrainian challenger Viktor Postol (21-2, 12 KO’s) made weight ahead of their hot battle Saturday, August 29, at at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, 🇺🇸 USA. ⭐️
Both fighters looked in great shape for the exciting war; the world champion Ramírez weighing-in at 139.8 pound; the challenger Postol making 139.7 lbs. ✅✅
Fans will surely witness an explosive, thrilling fight of great technical quality. 💥💥
Battle-tested world-class warrior, Viktor Postol, 36, is glory-hungry, strong and experienced. 🥊
His only two loses have been by points against hard-hitting undefeated reigning world champions of really high level: Josh Taylor (16-0, 12 KO’s) and Terence Crawford (36-0, 27 KO’s). 👍 Those sluggers could not stop Postol.👍
Is Ramírez is the same level of Taylor and Crawford?
The fight is by no means easy for the younger 28-year-old Mexican-American.
Still, I am betting on the good skills, momentum and punching power of José Ramírez. We’ll find out. 👍👍
Promoted by Top Rank, 🇲🇽🇺🇸 Ramírez VS 🇺🇦 Postol will be televised live on ESPN, fans wondering who will emerge VICTORIOUS..?? 💥🥊⭐️
— Ramírez VS 🇺🇦 Postol. May the Best Man Win..!! 🔥🔥
