    Great fight. Coming into the fight Rosario was being touted as the next Duran. Ramirez was a bit slow and ponderous but he certainly had enough to stop Rosario in his tracks

    What amazes me most about this fight is Rosario's power and Ramirez's chin. The pure force of Rosario's punches literally lift Ramirez off his feet and knock him to the ground. But Ramirez isn't that badly hurt by it.

    Chin and will is your best asset against a puncher sometimes. When things don't go as planned, when you wont fall down, it can do some weird things to your previously monstrous foe. Rosario melts vs. Ramirez here. A textbook example of folding. Ramirez is underrated.

    Trying to walk through Ramirez is not the greatest of strategies going around, even if you do punch like Rosario....

    Rosario had a sad ending some years ago. The drugs consumed him
