You make perfect sense, Stu. He's looking to get back in the ring after a 7 month layoff. I still believe Izu will KO him by the second round, but I expect that, as I really rate Izu. We'll have to see on the night how good Ramirez is. Regardless, Ramirez record will help move Izu up the rankings, which is what we all want.
This forum has gone thru similar issues with Parker, and now he's the #1 mandatory before his 20th fight. Impressive. I think the difference is that Stu is a matchmaker, and wants to match what's best for the fighter in his career. As a fan, we want competitive fights where the result might be in doubt.
