Gilberto Ramirez is No. 1 in Boxrec’s cruiserweight rankings despite having only fought once in the division, his 10-round unanimous decision over Joe Smith Jr. last October.
One has to imagine Ramirez’s lofty Boxrec status is due to his impressive record (45-1, 30 KOs) – which makes him by far the winningest and most experienced of the website’s ranked cruisers – even though most of his fights took place at super middleweight, where the 32-year-old Mazatlan native became the first Mexican to hold a major world title.
