Former IBF super middleweight champion Gilberto Ramirez says he is available to challenge WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol if Bivol is unsuccessful in working out a deal to face Saul "Canelo" Alvarez this fall: “People may say Bivol is avoiding me by chasing the Canelo fight, but I hope he gets it. Everyone knows Canelo is the lottery ticket. At the moment I can’t hate on him (Bivol) for taking his shot. But, if the fight doesn’t happen, he and his team know I’m available and there won’t be any other fight or excuse to avoid me. I’m open to fighting any of the World champions in the light heavyweight division. I’ve always said I’m the best in the division and there’s no one I wouldn’t fight for the title assuming all the other variables align.”
