Published: January 16, 2022
Ramirez-Commey and Estrada-Rupprecht will be broadcast live on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT.
FRESNO, Calif. — The fighting pride of California’s Central Valley and one of boxing’s pound-for-pound queens are joining forces for a special Fresno Fight Night. Former unified 140-pound world champion Jose Ramirez will meet former lightweight world champion Richard “RC” Commey in the 12-round junior welterweight main event Saturday, March 25, at Save Mart Center in Fresno, California. The co-feature will be a world title unification clash, as WBA minimumweight world champion Seniesa “Super Bad” Estrada collides with WBC world champion Tina Rupprecht. Ramirez-Commey and Estrada-Rupprecht will be broadcast live on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ at 10 p.m. ET/7 p.m. PT. Promoted by Top Rank, in association with DiBella Entertainment, tickets starting at $29 go on sale go on sale Friday, Jan. 13 at 10 a.m. PT and can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com and the Arena Box Office. Ramirez (27-1, 17 KOs), from Avenal, California, returns home to the friendly confines of the Save Mart Center, which has hosted six of his previous fights. Following his 2021 decision defeat to Josh Taylor for the undisputed junior welterweight title, Ramirez rebounded last March with a unanimous decision victory over former two-weight world champion Jose Pedraza. He has been among the sport’s best 140-pounders since winning the WBC world title over Amir Imam in March 2018. After defending that title twice, Ramirez stopped Maurice Hooker in six brutal rounds to unify the WBC and WBO titles. Ramirez retained both belts with a hard-fought majority decision over Viktor Postol in August 2020, a win that set up the Taylor showdown. “Fresno and the Save Mart Center hold a special place in my heart, and I am blessed to be able fight in front of my Central Valley fans once again,” Ramirez said. “Richard Commey is a championship fighter with everything to gain. I expect the best version of Commey on March 25. My goal is to become champion again, and I am more motivated than ever to prove that I am the best junior welterweight in the world.” "Ramirez is motivated like I have never seen, and he's out to prove some things,” said Rick Mirigian, Ramirez’s manager. “It all starts in Fresno in front of 15,000 hometown fans." Commey (30-4-1, 27 KOs), from Accra, Ghana, made his name as one of the sport’s top lightweights, winning Commonwealth honors before capturing the IBF world title in February 2019. His title reign lasted 10 months, as he knocked out former world champion Ray Beltran before a stunning second-round stoppage defeat to Teofimo Lopez at Madison Square Garden. Commey’s lightweight run ended with a December 2021 decision loss to Vasiliy Lomachenko. Last August, in his junior welterweight debut, he fought to a 10-round draw against Pedraza. Commey said, “I want to thank my team for putting me on the path to fulfilling my dream of becoming a two-weight world champion. I also want to thank Bob Arum and Top Rank for once again showing faith in me by allowing me to headline against a formidable opponent in Jose Ramirez. I’m up for the challenge, and I intend to make Ghana and all my fans around the world proud." Estrada (23-0, 9 KOs), from East Los Angeles, California, returns to her home state intent on unifying world titles for the first time in her decorated career. The 30-year-old veteran turned pro nearly a dozen years ago and has competed at the world class level in three weight classes. In 2021, she captured the WBA minimumweight and WBO light flyweight titles in consecutive fights. Estrada then vacated the light flyweight title to pursue undisputed glory at minimumweight. She signed with Top Rank last year and returned from a nearly 11-month layoff in November to shut out Jazmin Gala Villarino. “I want to give Tina credit for being a world champion who isn’t afraid of a unification fight, unlike Yokasta Valle,” Estrada said. “Since we couldn’t get Yokasta into the ring, we decided to do one better and fight the woman who beat her. The Fresno fans are passionate, and they are in for a great show.” Rupprecht (12-0-1, 3 KOs), from Augsburg, Germany, has made five defenses of her world title after being elevated from interim champion in 2018. Earlier that year, she toppled Valle, who is the current IBF and WBO unified minimumweight world champion In July 2021, Rupprecht edged former world champion Katia Gutierrez by split decision. Following more than a year away from the ring, she shook off the ring rust to dominate Peruvian veteran Rocio Gaspar to set up the Estrada showdown. Rupprecht has fought all but one of her pro bouts in Germany and will make the nearly 6,000-mile journey in hopes of ruining Estrada’s undisputed goal. “To fight in America against a fellow world champion in a world title unification is a dream come true for me,” Rupprecht said. “Seniesa is considered one of the sport’s best fighters, and I look forward to seeing who is the true number one in the division. This will be a Fight of the Year candidate and another huge night for female boxing. I’m going to be victorious and return to Germany with two world title belts.” The undercard, streaming live and exclusively on ESPN+, is scheduled to include the following standouts: Lightweight contender Raymond “Danger” Muratalla (16-0, 13 KOs), from Fontana, California, and trained by Robert Garcia, makes his 2023 debut in a 10-rounder. Muratalla went 3-0 in 2022, including stoppage victories over veterans Jeremy Hill and Miguel Contreras. Rising lightweight Karlos Balderas (14-1, 12 KOs), a 2016 U.S. Olympian from Santa Maria, California, looks to author his sixth consecutive victory in an eight-rounder. Balderas is coming off a career-best showing over Esteban Sanchez, a methodical beatdown that resulted in an eighth-round TKO. Antonio “El Gigante” Mireles (6-0, 6 KOs), a 6-foot-9 heavyweight from Des Moines, Iowa, aims for knockout number seven in a six-rounder. Mireles has three first-round knockouts and three second-round stoppages on his ledger. Lightweight prospect Charlie Sheehy (5-0, 4 KOs), the former U.S. amateur star from Brisbane, California, makes his third professional appearance in Fresno in a six-rounder. Javier “Milwaukee Made” Martinez (8-0, 2 KOs), who trains with Ramirez at Robert Garcia Boxing Academy, will fight an opponent to be named in a six-round middleweight tilt. Flyweight prospect Jessie James Guerrero (3-0-1, 3 KOs), from Gilroy, California, will see action in a four-rounder in his U.S. debut.

Fresno Fire: Jose Ramirez Pummels Richard Commey in 11 Former unified champ Jose Ramirez has earned another shot at the WBC junior welterweight title. Ramirez (28-1, 18 KOs) returned from a one-year layoff to defeat former lightweight world champion Richard Commey (30-5-1, 27 KOs) via 11th-round knockout on Saturday evening at the Save Mart Center in Fresno, California. From the opening round, Ramirez tried to overwhelm Commey with constant offense. In every round, the 30-year-old native of Avenal, California, pushed Commey to the ropes to throw straight right hands, hooks and uppercuts. In the 11th, Ramirez’s offense paid off as he sent Commey down with a right hand to begin the round. Ramirez then landed a left hook to the body that sent Commey down again, for a final time, at 2:31 of the penultimate chapter.

The Pound-for-Pound Rankings Featuring Cameron, Taylor, Shields
Katie Taylor's revenge victory over Chantelle Cameron produced a shift in the women's pound-for-pound rankings. Taylor, who became the first person in history to win two uncontested world championships, is now unrivaled in super lightweight. She nearly missed out on overtaking Claressa Shields for the top spot. Shields retained the title by a split decision.
In other developments, Alycia Baumgardner has been pulled from the rankings after testing positive for a forbidden drug. Baumgardner was cleared by an independent testing organization she hired, but the tribunal deemed this insufficient. She may be regraded in the future if the relevant commissions/authorities approve her to fight.
The article also includes a list of the best 12 female boxers based on pound-for-pound performance, as well as their records and titles. Marlen Esparza has won many flyweight titles, Mikaela Mayer is a former super-featherweight champion, and Delfine Persoon is a former lightweight champion. Savannah Marshall is the undisputed super middleweight champion, while Dina Thorslund is a former super bantamweight and current bantamweight champion.
Yakosta Valle holds the IBF/WBO minimumweight title, Natasha Jonas is the IBF welterweight champion and reigning super welterweight champion, and Seniesa Estrada is on her way to become the WBA minimumweight champion.

Wondering if Seniesa Estrada’s Boxing Journey Is Worth the Risk
I flinched when Seniesa Estrada took a shot. When she twisted to evade a jab, I found myself twisting, too. When she plowed a left hook into the jaw of her Argentine challenger, Leonela Yúdica, I hoped such aggression would lead to a knockout. As Estrada defended her World Boxing Association and World Boxing Council mini flyweight titles on Friday in front of nearly 2,500 fans at the Palms Casino…

Seniesa Estrada retires from boxing at 32 years old. 26-0. Two division champion. Undisputed minimumweight champ. A shame that there was nothing left to entice her to stay but I genuinely believe it’s never a bad time to retire from fighting as a career.
Thank you Golden Girl for a fun career.

Bad Blood: Seniesa Estrada & Yokasta Valle Face Off Ahead of UNDISPUTED Minimumweight Showdown March 29 LIVE on ESPN+
LAS VEGAS —WBC/WBA/Ring Magazine minimumweight world champion Seniesa “Super Bad” Estrada (25-0, 9 KOs) and WBO/IBF ruler Yokasta Valle (30-2, 9 KOs) went face to face for the first time Wednesday in Las Vegas. Their long-simmering feud will be settled Friday, March 29 at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Arizona, as the division's first-ever undisputed champion will be crowned in the evening's co-feature. In the main event, Mexican former two-division world champion Oscar Valdez (31-2, 23 KOs) will face Australian former world title challenger Liam Wilson (13-2, 7 KOs) in a 10-round junior lightweight battle. Valdez-Wilson & Estrada-Valle headline a stacked card streaming live and exclusively in the U.S. on ESPN+. The undercard will feature the return of lightweight phenom Emiliano Fernando Vargas (8-0, 7 KOs) in a six-rounder. Promoted by Top Rank, in association with No Limit Boxing, tickets are on sale NOW via Ticketmaster.com. This is what the fighters, Top Rank chairman Bob Arum, and Golden Boy Promotions CEO Oscar De La Hoya, promoter of Valle, had to say. Bob Arum "This is one of the best fight cards of the year. Really great, talented fighters, very competitive fights. I really think the fans have a real treat in store, particularly those people living in Glendale, Arizona, and the vicinity because they are really rabid fight fans. They'll turn out like they have before. We expect a full house on March 29." Oscar De La Hoya "It's great to be working with Bob Arum and Top Rank and making fights happen. I think this fight here was a fight that had to happen. I believe there's a lot of animosity between the fighters. There's a lot of competition, and the titles are at stake. History is at stake. Once again, Bob is making history. Bob continues to gives us the best fights, the best events. All I want to do is be like Bob when I grow up. I'm really happy to work with Bob and make this fight happen because the fans deserve it." Seniesa Estrada "It's not personal for her, but it's personal for me for many reasons. I'm competitive. I'm hungry to become undisputed. This is the fight that I've been trying to make and wanting to make since I was with Golden Boy Promotions around the time they first signed me. I wanted to make this fight happen because I wanted to become undisputed. So, I'm just excited and fuc*ing hungry to become undisputed. I can't wait for March 29!" "It's clear that I was promoted by Golden Boy Promotions. And Valle is always saying in interviews that I was ducking and running from her, which is completely false because there's never been any effort from her side to make the fight happen. It's always been from my side since the beginning. I told Golden Boy Promotions about her. That's how they knew about her. So, I wanted it from the start." Yokasta Valle "Champion versus champion. This is nothing personal. I just want to be a champion. I want to be undisputed. Seniesa has two titles. That's what I'm looking for. Not her. Simply the world titles is what I'm looking for. That's what I've been working towards for many years. Working hard, moving up divisions. 108, 105 pounds. All to become undisputed, and we're one step away. We're here, and I'm excited." "I visualize all of my fights, from the music I'm going to have, all the people screaming. And, God willing, all that's left after that is for them to say, 'And new undisputed champion, Yokasta Valle from Costa Rica.'" Oscar Valdez "I feel blessed to be on this card with these amazing fighters sitting next to me. I feel that I'm on their card. I feel like that's the main event. It's going to be a tremendous fight." "I definitely learned a lot from my last fight {a decision loss to Emanuel Navarrete}. We made mistakes in the ring. Sometimes, we go in with a game plan. Sometimes, that game plan doesn't work." "I'm trying to become a world champion {again}. That's every fighter's dream. Of course he's taking this fight seriously. So am I.... I respect Liam Wilson as a fighter and as a person. But inside that ring, I'm going to try to knock his head off. I'm going to do my best to win the fight and just win because I know winning this fight will get me closer to a world title shot. I really, really miss being a world champion." Emiliano Fernando Vargas "A kid can dream, and with hard work, they come to fruition. So, I'm very, very grateful to be here. This is another opportunity on March 29 to showcase my skills in front of all my beautiful fans in Glendale, Arizona. Fight by fight, we'll get there."

Was 2022 a good or a bad year for boxing?
Was 2022 a good or a bad year for boxing?
For some fans, 2022 was one of the most underwhelming years of the century in boxing, with conversations about star-studded bouts leading to nothing. Others may view the sport as having considerable bright spots, like undisputed championship fights, upsets and the rebirth of women’s boxing. A few notable fighters had breakout years (Dimtry Bivol, Devin Haney, Seniesa Estrada). Collectively, no…
