Jose Ramirez, Rances Barthelemy, Vergil Ortiz Jr. and Thomas Dulorme made weight on Friday for their match this Saturday night in their doubles live on DAZN from Save Mart Arena in Fresno, California. The event will be shown on DAZN starting at 8:00 pm ET.

Former WBC/WBO lightweight champion Jose Ramirez (28-1, 18 KOs) will fight in the main event, a 12-round bout with 37-year-old former two-division world champion Rances Barthelemy (30-21). , 15 KOs).

The boxing world has little interest in Ramirez vs. Barthelemy for obvious reasons. Barthelemy is not one of the important players at 140 and he is not young either, almost 40.

Fans expected more from recently signed Golden Boy fighter Ramirez, but his career has slowed down significantly since his loss to Josh Taylor in 2021. Ramirez, 31, has only fought twice in the past three years, defeating Jose Pedraza and Richard Commey in back-to-back fights.

Now, Ramirez is doing the same thing against Barthelemy, and you have to wonder if that loss to Josh Taylor had any effect on Ramirez's confidence since he didn't show much desire against opposition. senior level since then.

In the mixed bout, former welterweight contender Vergil Ortiz Jr. (20-0, 20 KOs) will fight heavyweight Thomas Dulorme (26-6-1, 17 KOs) in a 12-round middleweight bout. If Ortiz wins, he will fight former WBO junior middleweight champion Tim Tszyu on August 3.

Lightweight Oscar Duarte weighed in at 138 lbs for his fight with former super featherweight champion Joseph Diaz Jr. Duarte has heavy hands and is coming off a knockout loss to Ryan Garcia. He should win this fight without much trouble if he can get past Diaz Jr. That's a big if.
