Ram\u00edrez and Taylor know what\u2019s at stake!<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In a fight for superlight supremacy, champions Jos\u00e9 Ram\u00edrez (26-0, 17 KOs) and Josh Taylor (17-0, 13 KOs) are \u201cGoing at it,\u201d tomorrow night at Virgin Hotels in Las Vegas, Nevada.<\/p>\n

Ram\u00edrez and Taylor were face to face for the first and last time this Friday at the official weigh-in, prior to the opening bell.<\/p>\n

Ramirez weighed 139.6 pounds, while Taylor logged 139.6 pounds, so let the fireworks commence.<\/p>\n

Here are their parting verbal ripostes, before the talking is over… and the action commences:<\/p>\n

Jose Ramirez<\/p>\n

“I have faced many left-handed fighters in my career. On an amateur and professional level. I have been preparing for this fight all my life! I am very good physically. I believe in my abilities and will do my best. I always prepare like I am not the favorite. I always train like every fight is the biggest fight of my career. I can’t afford to lose. That’s always been my mindset. I always find a way to win. I will find a way to win.\u201d<\/p>\n

Josh taylor<\/p>\n

“I loved every minute of the camp in Las Vegas. I respect every fighter who enters the ring. You don’t become a unified champion by luck. You have to be a great fighter. I respect him a lot. He’s a great fighter and a great person. But on Saturday night, as soon as the bell rings, all that respect goes out the window. I’m sure I’ll get the knockout on Saturday.\u201d<\/p>\n

The fight, which is promoted by Top Rank, will be broadcasted by ESPN.<\/p>\n
