⚡ Rafel Espinoza vs Robeisy Ramirez Prediction
The prospect of what is to come when Rafael Espinoza and Robeisy Ramirez clash again on December 7th has really got fans excited ahead of the rematch. The first fight saw the Mexican Espinoza shock the world by defeating the Champion Robeisy Ramirez by Majority Decision, in what was ESPN’s Upset of the Year and a Fight of the Year contender.
During the first fight the then largely unknown Espinoza, who was viewed as a heavy outsider threw almost three times the amount of punches Ramirez did, 995 to 376 as volume became his greatest strength. The Mexican also landed over a hundred more punches on Ramirez during their first bout when compared with how many Ramirez landed on him, 222 to 119. Espinoza also looked to be the fresher fighter by the end of the fight as the Mexican’s volume of work clearly took a toll on Ramirez.
Ahead of the rematch, Ramirez will look to be more consistent and steady than his opponent and must surely have worked on dealing with the volume of punches that Espinoza is going to bring once again. If Espinoza can keep up his work as he did in the first fight though, he threw 120 punches in the 12th round alone, I can see him walking out of the Footprint Centre as the WBO Featherweight champion once more, and prove that his win in the first fight was no fluke.
FIGHT PREDICTION: 🥊Rafael Espinoza to win by decision.🥊
⚡ Rafael Espinoza Fight Stats
30-year-old Rafael Espinoza has had 25 fights as a professional after turning pro in 2013. He earned his first World title opportunity against Robeisy Ramirez in December of 2023. In that title fight, Espinoza shocked the then champion with a relentless display as he landed the WBO Featherweight Championship. He then returned to the ring in June 2024, defeating Sergio Chirino by way of TKO in Round Four. Espinoza has won 21 of his 25 fights by way of KO, with the remaining four victories coming by way of decisions.
⚡ Robeisy Ramirez Fight Stats
Robeisy Ramirez was a highly successful amateur fighter winning back-to-back Gold Medals at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics before he turned professional with Top Rank in 2019. He then lost his first professional fight against Adan Gonzales, but after that he won 13 fights in a row, including picking up the WBO Featherweight title in April 2023. His winning run was surprisingly stopped though when he lost his title to Espinoza in December 2023. The Cuban returned to the ring in June 2024 with a win over Brandon Leon Benitez. That win, and Espinoza’s victory over Sergio Chirino allowed the rematch for the WBO Featherweight Championship to be scheduled, and on December 7th the two men will go at it once again. Ramirez has won 9 of his 14 professional victories by KO, with the other 5 wins coming via decisions.
Rafael Espinoza vs Robeisy Ramirez: Road to the Rematch
As soon as the first fight between Espinoza and Ramirez was over back in December 2023, the expectation and hope from boxing fans was that the two would face off once again, and on December 7th they will get their wish.
Ramirez may have lost the first fight by majority decision to Espinoza but the Cuban will look to take back what he lost to Espinoza when the two men face off in Phoenix. The link between the two fighters is highlighted by the fact that both men returned to the ring within 1 week of each other in June 2024. Espinoza defended his title for the first time with a Fourth Round TKO of Sergio Chirino on June 21st. Then, a week later, on June 29th, Ramirez beat Brandon Leon Benitez in a Featherweight clash in Miami. Ramirez floored Benitez with a seventh-round uppercut, securing his win by stoppage.
Those wins set up this highly anticipated rematch between the two men, with Espinoza keen to show the world that his shock victory in the first fight was no fluke. Espinoza heads to Phoenix with an unblemished record of 25 wins from his 25 professional fights. ‘El Divino’ has won 21 of those 25 bouts by way of stoppage, a massive 84% ratio.
‘El Tren’ goes into the rematch with a professional record of 14 wins and 2 losses from his 16 professional fights, including his loss to Espinoza in their first clash. The double Olympic Gold Medallist has won 64% (9 out of 14) of his victories by KO.
