Dallas’ Hooker, 29, stepped on the Texas Combative Sports Program’s scale at 139½ pounds. The 26-year-old Ramirez, a 2012 U.S. Olympian from Avenal, California, officially weighed in at 139½ pounds, too.

I chose Hooker by close decision in the PTBF. This has draw written all over it though.

These 2 were questioned as to why they didn’t enter the WBSS.

But I guess this makes up for it. Call it our 3rd non-WBSS semi final.

On paper, I feel like Hooker's wins are clearly more legit than Ramirez's (and it's weird that Ramirez is rated so well, but it seems he got his rating from high-rated semi-randoms who got their points from other high-rated randoms). But Hooker got into some trouble against Saucedo, and could have lost, but was fortunate that he had enough heart to turn the tables and stop Saucedo. Saucedo found Hooker to be easily hittable, but Flanagan didn't. Ramirez has a weird style that involves a lot of bending at the waist and lunging with superman hooks. I think Hooker's porous defense would not be a problem against Ramirez's unconventional offense. I think Hooker would be able to find Ramirez's head with hooks a lot while Ramirez is bent over at the waist. So I kind of favor Hooker.

nice breakdown.

find this a hard fight to call, i think hooker got better since flannagan fight, but he also doesnt have a big height advantage in this fight he also gets tagged a lot , jose has some speed about him , can see him landing ,going to side ramirez due to speed

Hooker's last 4 wins all against undefeated fighters, granted none of them with the pedigree of Ramirez.
He has that slight size but a hefty reach advantage, he could make it a real real tough night for Ramirez.
Really is a close one. Think I'd fancy a bet slightly towards Hooker here. Just a hunch.

Great predictions.

Does anyone have a

“I prefer [insert name here] to win.

I don’t really mind who wins here. Done have a favourite. May the best man win for me.

Anyone wanna do a rbr can use this thread..

I will post the running order.

ARLINGTON, Texas - Junior welterweight prospect Movladdin 'Arthur' Biyarslanov battered Solon Staley before stopping him in the third round. Biyarslanov (4-0, 4 KOs) staggered Staley midway through the opening round, but this shorter Staley (1-4) fought back, landing a few punches flush to the face of Biyarslanov.

In the third round, Biyarslanov staggered Staley with a combination. Moments later, Biyarslanov pinned Staley against the ropes, where he landed a left-right combination. Staley fell forward, sticking his arms down to the canvas to break his fall, but referee Roberto Chapa immediately stopped the bout at 1:18.

In the opening bout, middleweight Darius Bagley defeated veteran Carlos Dixon (1-14-1, 1 KO) by unanimous decision. All three judges scored the bout 39-37 in favor of Bagley, who was making his professional debut. Both fighters reside in the Dallas area.

Farmer KO, hopefully around 10th

Nikita Abibiy really needs to work on defending the right hand a lot more...

Gotta be Farmer vs Davis next

Please not another farmer fight...
