WBC interim middleweight champion Jesus Ramos Jr, is determined to become the WBC's full champion, but standing in his way is the current champion, Carlos Adames.  On a visit to Mexico, Ramos made his intentions crystal clear.  Adames will defend his Green and Gold Belt against Austin ”Ammo” Williams on January 31st at Madison Square Garden in New York City, and Ramos is determined to fight the winner. The burly, powerful five feet ten inches tall, twenty four year old southpaw, who is personable, charming, bilingual and soft spoken, yet as hard as nails in the ring, having most recently defeated Shane Mosley Jr by unanimous decision, said:  ”I want Carlos Adames. He`s the next goal for me. He`s the WBC champion and if he gets the win over Ammo Williams that is the fight I`m looking for. Whoever wins will have to bite the bullet and fight me. I`m ready, I want to be the full champion and that`s my target. I`m still only twenty four and I`ve got a lot more development to come. You never stop learning in boxing and I`m going to continue to grow and it`s only up from here. I`m not even in my prime yet and when this happens it`s going to be a whole different story.”

 

Ramos' record is 24-1, 19 KO`s. His only defeat was a close but uanimous decision against Erickson Lubin. He says: ”For a while I wanted the rematch. Unfortunately he never gave it to me, took another route and ended up losing to Virgil Ortiz, so it`s not so intriguing any more. But, I wish him the best and thank him for giving me that opportunity. Without that fight, I wouldn`t be here. In that fight I learned a lot, grew a lot and I had to go through that to become.”
