Prediction: Gilberto Ramirez on Points
Result: Gilberto Ramirez by Points
One of the most entertaining slugfests of the year. Zurdo boxed the head off CBS for a large portion of the fight however after looking completely out of it halfway through, CBS somehow battled through to not only survive but win some of the final rounds and make it close. He’s a true warrior but credit to Zurdo who showed his skill in this fight.
