Finals of the Riyadh Season WBC Boxing Grand Prix in the Heavyweight division, live on DAZN on December 20th. As of today, Krnjić is 7-0 (4). Ramírez is 11-0-2 (4). Ten centimeter height advantage for the Bosnian (6′4½″ to KCR's six foot even) Both benefit from the absence of Lazizbek Mullojonov, who got himself barred from the Grand Prix after failing a drug test.
I'm leaning towards Krnjic after his performance against Gomes. I could see him doing to Ramirez what he did to Gomes, he is not afraid to use his size or fight a bit dirty and Ramirez will struggle to overcome it, even with his speed.
It'd be great if the little guy could win it, I love it when a smaller fighter overcomes a size disadvantage, what is the weight different likely to be, 70, 80lbs?

I really like Ramirez and will be rooting for him, but this is probably biting off a little more than he can chew.
I know nothing about either of these guys but I suppose I'll root for Krnjic. He beat Rogava, who was highly regarded by some on here. He's young-ish at 28, and I like former kickboxers, as they often have the strong legs that translates into the ability to take a shot. That being said, I have no idea.
