Personal life

Marcos a current firefighter, was once 21-0 and on the fast track to a shot at the world Featherweight championship. Until his first-born son, Diego, died unexpectedly in January 2006. His son was only 13 months old. All Ramírez knows is that there was a fever that did not subside. He lost his passion for boxing after Diego’s death. After a brief comeback, he retired from boxing in 2008 with a career record of 25-1. "It changed who I was," Ramírez says during his shift as a back-end man at the firehouse. "A big chunk of my heart was ripped out."

Professional career

On October 4, 2008 Ramírez fought Yuriorkis Gamboa after a long layoff and had Gamboa staggered in the first round but would go on to lose the bout.
