Senator and eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao's sparring partner, unbeaten Jose Ramirez (18-0, 13 KO's), says the "Fighter of the Decade" is "going to be more than ready
when he faces WBO welterweight champion Jessie Vargas at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas on November 5, which will be November 6 Manila Time.
After six rounds of intense sparring last Saturday at the classy
"Flash" Elorde Gym in the Mall of Asia complex, the 5'10" Ramirez told the Manila Standard he has had three weeks of great sparring and while "it's been a tough camp for Manny, he is going to be more than ready on November 5."
Ramirez said they had "six good rounds of sparring and training last Saturday and Manny is going to be more than ready" when he
faces WBO welterweight champion Vargas.
The 5'10" southpaw told us that he had "learned a lot the last three weeks I have been here. My speed, my distance and my angles" have all benefited from training with Pacquiao over the past three weeks. Ramirez will face Puerto Rico's 35 year
old Gabriel "Tito" Bracero who has a record of 24-3 with 5 knockouts for the WBC Continental Americas super lightweight title in Fresno, California on December 10.
Ramirez who will train at Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym for the last five weeks, said he will be ready and "hopefully will get a chance to fight for a world title."
He said Bracero is "a tough opponent who just fought (and lost a ten round points decision) to Paulie Malinaggi.
