Gilberto Ramirez...How good is he?

Ramirez is the goods he put it all together tonight beautifully.

Ramirez size and skill will be tough for anyone in the division.

Wasn't the Vlasov fight at a catch weight of 172? People might have been a tad bit too harsh on Zurdo during that fight, to top it off it was in Colorado... Several factors that I personally took into consideration before jumping the gun and bashing the kid like many others on this very forum.

I believe it was actually.
Vlasov has had his more recent fights at LHW & even CW, he is a big guy.
Vlasov's only loss prior was too Chilemba who is never an easy out and many, myself included felt he won that fight.

I think he looked great tonight and was showing new dimensions.
His head movement and footwork looked much improved.

He would beat Chudinov like he did Abraham. IDK how he'd look against DeGale, but because of politics, they won't meet up for a while anyway. Callum Smith could be a tough fight because they are similar in size.

He cemented himself tonight as a top 10 guy @SMW, so that's a good start.

styles makes fights....he's even money against any top 168lb. His combination of size/length/workrate will be tough for anyone. His footwork and pace was impressive tonight, but lacked a solid final stretch...

If we're talking GGG's next opponent out of Brook, Canelo, DeGale or Ramirez. He's the weakest link out of the 4.

That was a good win.

I hate watching his version of AA, he is extremely boring but he has become very experienced in nicking rounds and getting close wins. So for a young guy like Ramirez to not get out-hustled and get the win was a good job

True but Abraham got very old , no footwork , cant throw more than 3 in a bunch with the last 2 arm punches and hopes for a hail mary shot to land every round .

No way. DeGale and Ramirez are the only two boxers on that list who can beat GGG.

DeGale, Canelo = possibly yes

Brook = maybe

Ramirez = not a chance in hell

My take on this

At 168 I'd pick DeGale to beat GGG. At 160 Canelo has no chance

Brook? Forget about it, he's simply too small. Ramirez vs GGG would be at 168 where Ramirez is the bigger and physically stronger man. He's a freaking LHW and could win based on size alone.
