The Cuban boxer Robeisy Ramírez once again showed signs of confidence on his way to the battle against the Mexican Brandon León Benítez, next June 29, at the James L. Knight Center in Miami Beach, Florida.
As a demonstration of his focus and desire to return to the path of victory, the former featherweight world champion of the World Organization of the discipline published a video on Facebook showcasing his current training and physical condition.
"I have had an awesome training camp with exercises I had never done before. We have been increasing them. I have done intense sparring sessions and there are still three weeks left. We are ready!" explained the two-time Olympic gold medalist in London 2012 and Rio de Janeiro 2016.
As a sign of things to come, the left-handed boxer added: "Miami, what awaits you is a lot."
The Cuban lost his crown last December to the also Mexican Rafael "El Divino" Espinoza, in one of the best fights of 2023. Just because of that, at 30 years old, he longs to prove that there is still dynamite left in his fists.
Currently, the island's boxer has a record of 13 wins, two losses, and eight knockouts as a professional, while his opponent has 21 victories, the same number of losses, and nine opponents defeated by knockout.
After the fight was made official, Ramírez wrote on his social media: "On June 29, my mission to regain my world title and return to the top, where I know I belong, begins. Cuba vs. Mexico again and I am excited to have the loyal support of the Cuban community in Miami. So, bring your flag."
"It will be an electrifying event. The journey is far from over. My return will be legendary. 'The Train is coming back!' he added."
In July 2018, Ramírez left the Cuban boxing team's training camp in Aguascalientes, Mexico, en route to the Central American and Caribbean Games in Barranquilla, Colombia.
Upon learning the news, the officialist press fiercely attacked. "Attitudes like these stray from the values and discipline that have characterized our sport, which remains committed to making the greatest possible contribution to the Cuban delegation at the regional event," the text read.
