Robeysi Ramirez (11-1, 7 KOs), two-time Olympic champion, after an unsuccessful professional debut and significant changes, he will finally fight for the world title.

After the defeat, the Cuban changed his coach, and everything began to return to normal. He successfully climbed the career ladder, but now he reached for more and more valuable prey. Last year, he defeated Eric Donovan (14-1), Abraham Nova (21-0) and Jose Romero (26-2) ahead of schedule. On top of that, the Cuban has a favorable situation with the rating and the WBO belt.

The current champion Emanuel Navarette is about to pass 59 kilograms, so an interregnum has reigned on the throne of the World Boxing Organization. For the vacant third featherweight belt, Gamboa will face number one, former lightweight champion Isaac Dogboy (24-2, 15 KOs). Both are under contract with Bob Arum and his Top Rank.

“This fight will open the door to greatness for my boxer. Dogboye is a fighter, but he was stopped by Magdaleno, who, of course, does not hit as hard as Robeisi, ”says Ismael Salas, Ramirez's coach.
