    Ramirez was just that bit more smarter. Gonzales was more talented, but Ramirez was one of the last classic old school and that bit too cute.

    Yeah, I like Ramirez too. Gonzalez did too little with the tools he had. Ramirez wasn't just your typical mauling southpaw with a strong overhand left, he could actually box and think inside the ring. Gonzales seemed uncomfortable with external pressures or the chore of having to adjust to anything.

    I think Ramirez's edges in strength and power probably see him manoeuvre MAG around and land the better shots to take a fairly close and competitive 8-4 to 10-5 type of decision.

    Gonzalez was a good fighter, but he's a little too conventional to outbox Ramirez.

    I Think MAG could have been a better fighter, but he faded badly in a short amount of time and never lived up to his potential. JLC was tough as nails and would have worn him down. MAG wasn't as strong and wasn't a good enough boxer to keep JOC off him.

    JLC by decision in a competitive fight.
