    Prime for prime, of course. Does Ruiz maul his way to victory, or does Weaver take him out?

    Man, I'm not sure. Weaver was not that light footed and I'm not sure that he'd be able to stop the huggery. On the other hand, Ruiz' slow pace would suit Weaver who often came alight in the later rounds. I'd have to honestly sit down and do a comparison because style is going to be important here. I can tell you that I'd be cheering for Weaver though.

    Mike sparks him out of there. The lefts to the breadbasket set the table and he comes upstairs with that left hook the last 1/3 of the fight. I also think it's a brutal ko along the lines of the Coetzee bout for Ruiz.

    What is it with Ruiz on here ?
    I would say him and Tua pop up on more matchups than any others ? Lol
    Ps. I would be rooting for Weaver before I fell asleep.
