WBA/WBO lightweight champion Juan Manuel “Dinamita” Marquez (53-5-1, 39 KOs) warmed up for his November showdown with Manny Pacquiao by knocking out Likar Ramos (24-4, 18 KOs) in the first round of a non-title jr welterweight matchup on Saturday night at the Plaza de Toros in Cancun, Quintana Roo, Mexico. An explosive right hand to the chin put Ramos on his back out cold. Time was 1:47.
Former world champion Rafael “Raffa” Marquez (40-6, 36 KOs) battered Eduardo Becerril (12-8-2, 4 KOs) for five rounds and Becerril didn’t come out for round six. Marquez knocked down Becerril with a left hook in round four. Marquez is eyeing a possible challenge against WBC super bantamweight champion Toshiaki Nishioka later this year.
WBA light flyweight Roman “Chocolatito” Gonzalez (29-0, 24 KOs) retained his title with a seventh round TKO against Omar Salado (22-4-2, 13 KOs). Gonzalez’ pressure paid dividends early with two knockdowns in round one. “Chocolatito” floored Salado again in the seventh and the bout was stopped at the end of that round. Time was :48.
