Nick Ball makes brutal Jesus Ramirez Rubio prediction and sets eyes on world title shot

Nick Ball has warned fight fans to expect a brutal encounter when he meets Jesus Ramirez Rubio at York Hall on Friday night.

The 25-year-old goes up against the formidable Mexican as he looks to defend his WBC Silver featherweight title in front of the BT Sport cameras in the capital.

Ball, who is unbeaten in 16 professional bouts, fights out of the renowned Everton Red Triangle gym. He came from a background of Thai boxing before switching to Kirkby ABC from where he had 25 amateur fights.
