"I'm looking forward to it," said Ram?rez, "It's going to be a big fight, and every aspect of the event is big. I'm very excited to be a part of this and be able give back to my fans, my family and the people who live here as well as the sponsors who have supported my career." .

The Official Weigh-in will take place Friday, November 8, 3:00 p.m. PT, also at Tachi Palace Casino. "I want to thank Tachi Palace Casino and its entire staff. Without them we would not have been able to make this fight happen. They really stepped up to support Jose and the Central Valley and believed in us," said Rick Mirigian, Ram?rez's agent. The fight card has been called "Fight for Water" because Ram?rez wants to help make a difference in farm-related employment and the families who lost their jobs when water supplies were reduced. Ram?rez recently joined the Latino Water Coalition, which aims to help resolve the state's water crisis and to promote economic growth in the area where he grew up. Mirigian said naming the event was a no-brainer. "Jose and his family struggled first hand when the water didn't flow, and times got even harder for his family, who relied on the field work and farming industry. It is important that the public knows that no matter how big a fight he has or will ever have, that the biggest fight to be won is the 'Fight for Water.' " In addition to hosting the press conference and the weigh in, Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino will also host a special champions dinner, pre and post fight activities that include meet and greets with Ram?rez, promotions and more. They will have a roundtrip shuttle running every 20 minutes to the fight which is only five minutes away from the property.
