WINS SUPER MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLEDan Rafael, ESPN Senior Writer LAS VEGAS -- Gilberto "Zurdo" Ramirez etched his name in Mexican boxing history, becoming the first fighter from that country to win a super middleweight world title as he dethroned Arthur Abraham by shutout decision on the Manny Pacquiao-Timothy Bradley Jr. III undercard on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. All three judges scored the fight 120-108 for Ramirez, who also became only the second Mexican to win a world title in a division heavier than middleweight; the late Julio Gonzalez won a light heavyweight world title from Dariusz Michalczewski in 2003 in Germany. "I took to him a Mexican boxing school," Ramirez said. "He was a very, very strong puncher, but he couldn't take any movement. I knew halfway through the fight I was going to win the fight. I came here to make history, and I did it." Abraham did virtually nothing at all in the fight. He was lethargic and seemed like he was in the ring to go the distance and collect his check. |
