Junior middleweight contender, Erickson “The Hammer” Lubin, is gearing up for a significant bout against the undefeated Jesus Ramos on September 30th at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. While Lubin is set to prove his mettle, Ramos is currently seen as a favorite, especially given his impressive track record in the 154-lb division. Lubin believes he has matured since his loss to Sebastian Fundora last year and is eager to demonstrate his growth against the 22-year-old Ramos.
Lubin’s strategy leans on leveraging his speed and power, believing that his experience will give him an edge over Ramos. He recalls his own confidence at 22, drawing parallels with Ramos’s current mindset. However, Lubin emphasizes that Ramos hasn’t faced an opponent like him before. While Lubin acknowledges Ramos’s punching prowess, he feels that skills will ultimately determine the outcome of their bout.
In the backdrop of their fight, the boxing community is abuzz with the Canelo Alvarez vs. Jermell Charlo main event. Lubin refrains from making a definitive prediction but hints at Charlo needing to be at his absolute best to stand a chance against Canelo. Regardless of the outcomes, September 30th promises to be a thrilling night for boxing fans.
