    I think it would be best if toney enters retirement rather than ruiz returning

    A fat out of shape James Toney put a beating on Ruiz. Even hilariously knocked him down.

    Why would I wanna see it again?

    The fight was changed to a no contest because Toney was jucing. It would be like Cotto-Marg 2

    i dont remember the first fight all that much, i remember rooting for Ruiz because Toney is an ******* but I remembered thinking it was close but that Ruiz lost

    the knockdown seemed like bull**** he clearly stepped on Ruiz foot


    all in all there is no point to rematch

    id rather see Ruiz Holyfield 4 to settle the series

    Ruiz should just wait and hope Povetkin fights Wlad. After that, another "regular" WBA belt would be available and, out of sheer habit, he, Chagaev and Valuev will be the top contenders.
