Ramirez scored two knockdowns in the fateful round, the second of which produced a full ten count at 2:31 of round eleven in their WBC junior welterweight title eliminator Saturday evening at Save Mart Arena in Fresno, California.

LAS VEGAS – The unshakable sadness is evident in Cody Crowley’s voice. Nine month after his father’s suicide, the undefeated Canadian welterweight contender isn’t afraid to admit that he is “broken” and “a little bit f------ up.” Crowley has thought about Jim Crowley, the man who introduced him to boxing and was his biggest fan, throughout a long, grueling training camp for his career-shaping fight against Abel Ramos on Saturday night at MGM Grand Garden Arena.

LAS VEGAS – This wasn’t the type of stoppage Jesus Ramos was confident he would produce Saturday night, but he beat Joey Spencer by technical knockout. Spencer’s father and trainer, Jason, asked referee Tony Weeks to stop their 10-round junior middleweight match in the sixth round after Ramos connected with a left-right-left-right-left combination that moved Spencer backward. Spencer was on his feet when Weeks halted the action at 1:25 of the sixth round.

Abel Ramos was in the room when the call came. Like the rest of Team Ramos, he was pleasantly surprised to learn that unbeaten junior middleweight prospect Joey Spencer wanted to fight his nephew, Jesus, on the David Benavidez-Caleb Plant undercard Saturday night. Though the welterweight contender obviously favors his nephew, he applauded both boxers for taking this type of risk at similar stages of their careers.
