In a highly anticipated bout at the YouTube Theater in Inglewood, California, Mexico’s Gilberto Ramirez secured a significant victory by claiming the WBA (Super) cruiserweight title. Ramirez faced off against France’s Arsen Goulamirian, who entered the ring undefeated in 28 fights and making his fifth defense of the title.
The contest proved to be a challenging test for both fighters, but Ramirez showcased his skill and determination throughout the bout. Despite Goulamirian’s formidable reputation, Ramirez controlled the action and impressed the judges with his performance.
All three judges scored the fight 118-110 in favor of Ramirez, affirming his dominance in the ring and solidifying his position as the new WBA cruiserweight champion. This victory marked a significant milestone for Ramirez, extending his professional record to an impressive 46 wins with just one defeat.
For Goulamirian, it was a disappointing outcome as he suffered his first career loss after holding the cruiserweight title since 2018. Despite his previous success, Ramirez proved to be a formidable opponent, ending Goulamirian’s reign as champion.
Ramirez’s triumph represents a remarkable achievement in his career, particularly after his only previous defeat against Dmitry Bivol in a WBA world light-heavyweight title bout.
