Jose Ramirez vs. Jose Pedraza Junior Welterweight
Showdown Postponed To March 4
The homecoming of former unified junior welterweight world
champion Jose Ramirez is happening, just 27 days later than
expected. Central Valley native Ramirez will fight former
two-weight world champion Jose “Sniper” Pedraza in the
12-round main event Friday, March 4 at Save Mart Center in
Fresno, California.
Ramirez and Pedraza were scheduled to fight Saturday, Feb.
5, but Pedraza tested positive for COVID-19.
In the six-round heavyweight special feature immediately
before the main event, Olympic silver medalist Richard
Torrez Jr., from the Central Valley town of Tulare,
California, will make his long-awaited professional debut.
The 10-round co-feature will see the Top Rank debut of
featherweight contender Joet Gonzalez, who will fight
Filipino veteran Jeo Santisima. The entire Ramirez-Pedraza
card will stream live and exclusively in the United States
on ESPN+.
