A 23 year old fighter had trouble with a good, underrated veteran in Vlasov and now he's garbage? Some boxing fans are garbage.
And the fans out there who say Chavez is better need to stfu. Chavez at 23 was struggling with Matt Vanda and Troy Rowland, and he needed to cheat for both of those fights.
If Rameriz & Chavez fought right now, Rameriz would beat the hell out of Chavez. Could you imagine if Chavez had to fight Vlasov in Denver altitude? Chavez would've got clowned and quit on his stool.

The hype worked for Robert Guerrero, why not for Ramirez? Heavier weight classes don't get the benefit of hype, it seems.
Robert Guerrero has been a world champion. The two of them are not exactly comparable.
