Top Rank also made a special donation for the kids, giving out 1,000 tickets for the matchup.
"I grew up in a very small community so a lot of these kids remind me of me and my friends so sometimes it only takes one person to inspire - we want to make sure that they become good people, good law abiding citizens," said Ramirez.

"These kids may not have the opportunity to go to a title boxing because of the cost so we're really excited and really happy that we were selected to be a part of this event," said Sandra Dee Chaney, Director of Community Relations with the Boys & Girls Club.
Ramirez went on to beat Richard Commey in their match at the Save Mart Center.
