Opetaia’s anger grows on the coincidences of “Tomato Can” and stopped unifying with Zurdo Ramirez

Jai Opetaia stated his frustration for having stuck his IBF cruise title against Fringe Claudio Squeo’s contestant on May 13, instead of facing the WBC champion and the Wbo Gilberto ‘Zurdo’ Ramirez in a unified struggle. Operation sounds helpless, like a childand unable to see the solution to their problem.

Is showing signs of helplessness learned. His problem would be easily resolved if he dared to leave the heavy weight division to look for the gold mining that he was waiting for heavy weight.

Hearn’s justification

Promoter Eddie Hearn says that the Opetaia title defense against IBF number 14 (17-0, 9 kos) is to keep it busy and take advantage of its popularity at the Gold Coast. It is there that Opetia (27-0, 21 kos) fought earlier this year, and went out in the fourth round of January 8 at the Gold Coast Convention Center, Broadbeach, Australia.

Boxing fans on social media do not buy Hearn’s excuses why he would fight against the little known 34 -year -old Squeo, as they see this type again and are seeing a pattern that is formed by the way they match.

Although Opteia had a record of 27-0, he only fought a good opponent during his ten-year career, Mairis Briedis, 39, and almost lost with him in his revenge last May. Obviously, it was not a good aspect for Opetaia that he was struggling to overcome Bried’s 40 years and to be forced to run when the pressure underneath the underneath became too low.

Now that Briedis has withdrawn, the cruise cruise ship division is completely arid from the talent. Zurdo Ramirez is the only decent fighter in the weight class, apart from Opetia. Not in vain, none of the lightest heavy weights is interested in moving forward because there is no one fighting the division to make money. Cruiserweight is considered a division where fighters who do not have the talent to fight for heavy weight choose to stay.

“Again the Gold Coast, defending its world title (IBF Cruiserweight). This is what Mick wants to do and everyone. We know that big fights arrive, the Zurdos,” said promoter Eddie Hearn a Dazn boxSpeaking of Jai Opetaia’s plans. “The plan is to be indisputable and unify -but this guy wants to stay occupied.

“The event in January at the Gold Coast was wild (against David Nyika). We want to return, defending the world title in May. It is important to have a good look before trying to collect those other belts at the end of 2025. I really want to fight frequently this year.

He sounds good what Hearn says about his reason to have Jai Opetaia Fight Claudio Squeo, but that does not wash with fans. They see it as the IBF’s title milking against another tomato after their recent victories on similar combatants, Nyika and Jack Massey.

The frustration of Opetiaia

“We want the Zurdo’s struggle, but also, Badou Jack Fight (Ryan) Rozicki, who is soon. This is another fight. We have to put all these belts before we inevitably pass heavy weight,” said Hearn.

“It’s a bit frustrating. I have been chasing these unifications. I have been chasing this Zurdo struggle and yet it has not arrived. I don’t know why,” said Opetaia.

“You are an animal, that’s why,” said Hearn about the reason Jai cannot get the unification to fight against Gilberto ‘Zurdo’ Ramirez and the other cruise champion, Badou Jack. “The best should fight better. He (Zurdo) has two belts. I have two belts (Ibf and Ring). I have been trying to push this struggle, but it doesn’t make sense why it cannot be overcome.

If it should not be happy to fight the opposition that is being fed, it should go through heavy weight and try the best of this division. He will not work to ask Oleksandr Usyk in WBA, WBC and WBO to give it a free title without work. If Ophetia wants to fight for a belt and make the big money, he must face the tastes of Joseph Parker, Filip Hrgovic, Fabio Wardley and Martin Bakole to win the fight.
