According to Dan Rafael of espn.com, Jose Ramirez will take on Manuel Perez on the Manny Pacquiao – Timothy Bradley 3 card on April 9 in Las Vegas.
“Jose Ramirez is going into his first appearance on the big stage,” Top Rank promoter Bob Arum said. “He represents the future of boxing. He is the fan favorite in his hometown [near] Fresno, where he is widely known. We now believe he will become very popular among fans throughout the United States and the world.”
“I feel honored and thankful for the opportunity given to me, and I will do my best to give my greatest performance April 9,” Ramirez said.
“Jose is a champion inside and out of the ring, and there will be a ton of people from Fresno who will spend tens of thousands of dollars on tickets alone to see it in person, and many will watch at home as we have been flooded with ticket requests already.”
