On March 21, 1963, Davey S. Moore (59-6-1, 30 KOs), the featherweight WBA and The Ring champion, and Sugar Ramos (38-1-3, 29 KOs), the featherweight WBC champion, fight for the undisputed featherweight world championship.
Davey S. Moore is coming in to the fight on a 19-fight win streak with a 45% KO rate; his last fight was a 5th round TKO victory over Gil Cadilli, 1 month and 3 days ago. Sugar Ramos is on a 7-fight win streak with a 69% KO rate, with his last fight being a 2nd round TKO win over Jose Luis Cruz, 2 months and 21 days ago.
The winning odds are at 93.6-6.4 in favor of Sugar Ramos. It is going to be very difficult for Davey S. Moore to win this fight.
The champion refused to continue the fight in the 10th round, and Sugar Ramos is crowned the new WBA, The Ring, and WBC featherweight world champion — and becomes the undisputed featherweight world champion — in his first world-title fight. Ramos improves his record to 39-1-3 (30 KOs), while Moore adds a loss to his record at 59-7-1.
