Scottish boxer lost five lightweight championship belts

“I think they’re still out there somewhere in Dallas, USA. They’ve lost my championship belts,” Taylor told BBC Scotland on May 26, when returning home empty-handed. “But it doesn’t matter, nothing can make me worry or less happy. I am still the happiest person right now.”

Answer a similar question by Sky Sports then he said, “I don’t know where the belts are either, ask United Airlines.”

In the fight in Nevada, USA on May 23, Taylor was not overwhelming, but more effective than Ramirez. The 30-year-old Scottish boxer had 145 hits on target, while Ramirez only had 134 hits. Taylor still knocked down the opponent twice, but Ramirez still got up and hit 12 rounds.

In the end, Taylor won by a tight score of 114-112, 114-112, 114-112, to win two more WBC and WBO ultralightweight belts, while preserving the WBA and IBF belts that he had. holding. Besides these four belts, in the Nevada ring on May 23, the Scottish boxer also showed off the super light The Ring belt he is holding.

Beating Ramirez, Taylor made history by becoming the first British boxer to win four WBA, WBC, IBF, WBO ultralightweight championships (excluding The Ring’s belt). England could have seen the next absolute champion, but the fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua scheduled to take place in August fell apart at the last minute.

After winning four ultralightweight championships, Taylor considered moving up to the weight division and fought with Terence Crawford – the former absolute champion under welterweight. Taylor said: “I want to hit the bottom welterweight and have a big fight with Terence Crawford. I think the fight between the two absolute champions will be amazing.”
