Ramirez turned down the fight against Prograis

WBC light heavyweight champion Regis Prograis announced that former champion José Ramírez had turned down a fight against him because of the fee.

Regis Prograis, quoted by ESPN
I'm disappointed with the news that Ramírez turned down the fight. I've wanted to box with him for the last five years, and this is some bullshit - he doesn't want to box with me when I became world champion. It shows that he never wanted to and never will box against me.

Recall, November 26, Prograis defeated Zepeda by TKO in the 11th round.
 
Prograis had his previous fight against Tyrone McKenna in March 2022. That fight ended with TKO in the sixth round. The 33-year old Prograis has 28 wins (24 by KO) and one loss.
