When Oscar De La Hoya said of his newly found “Meal Ticket”, Zzzurdo Ramirezzz, “Ramirez is on his way up, Ramirez is hungry”, The Golden Boy wasn’t kidding. On Friday afternoon we found out Zzurdo was so hungry he was on his way up to a whopping 183 pounds. That’s a full eight pounds over the contracted weight for his match with Gabe Rosado. As such, the fight has been cancelled. There is simply no excuse for this.

Jean Pascal Loses Decision To Michael Effert

MONTRÉAL - The Montrealer light heavyweight (175 pounds) Jean Pascal suffered his seventh loss Thursday evening at Place Laval, losing by unanimous decision in 10 rounds against the German Michael Effert.

Effert (12-1-0) used this excellent technique to dominate the Montrealer in almost every rounds. “I got the feeling that Pascal would be more aggressive than me, but it did not happen in this fight”, said Effert after the bout. “I dominated clearly eight of the 10 rounds of the bout. I am younger than Pascal. I think that this situation played for me. Before the bout I was extremely confident to win.”

The Truth?
 
By William Trillo
The truth is, up until Sunday afternoon I have never had the slightest interest in watching any fight that featured Ru Paul, Jake Paul or whatever that other one’s name is. But because of my morbid curiosity and hope that Paul would finally be exposed for the Charlatan that he is, the truth is I streamed his fight, (volume down), against Tommy Fury that was aptly named, “The Truth.” Let the record reflect the truth that there was no way I was gonna shell out the $49 PPV fee the promoters demanded. The truth is I found an illegal stream (shhh). I’m happy to report that everything I knew and believed was true. Paul is at best a D level club fighter, nothing more. Along my little pirate streaming journey I was hit with a few other truths that I would like to share with you now.
