The 19-0 tremendous welterweight Jesus Ramos stepped into the ring Saturday evening on the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to battle a fellow undefeated slugger, the 16-0 Joey Spencer, in a combat scheduled for ten. Ramos-Spencer was the co-main of the David Benavidez-Caleb Plant pay per view occasion. A Ramos left hook put Spencer down on the finish of the primary. Spencer acquired up, and Ramos went in for the kill. Spencer, nevertheless, fought again ferociously. It was an amazing begin, with the fighters tapping gloves in mutual admiration on the sound of the bell.
The larger, stronger Ramos banged arduous at his man within the second. It could be unlikely for Spencer to in the end win the combat if he didn’t change his recreation plan. By the third it appeared that, courageous and recreation as he was, Spencer merely wasn’t the identical caliber of fighter Ramos was. Spencer was in a position to rock Ramos -hard – within the closing minute of the fourth…however Ramos was unaffected. By the fifth, Spencer was largely simply surviving.
The sixth noticed poor Spencer appear like a punching bag. To his credit score, Spencer tried working his man down on the ropes early within the seventh. Ramos, nevertheless, merely gave the impression to be resting momentarily, for he quickly got here again alive and commenced pressuring his man. Spencer didn’t make it to the tip of the spherical. His father/coach properly threw within the towel.
