multiple times. went the distance with Ali. the guy sosnowski won it (was a vacant title) had 5 straight shots at the title and lost every one
Lots of bums went distance aginst late 70's Ali they were more like exabitions then fights Again it means little what happens later they were same caliber opponents. Holmes had another 4 cobb, frank witherspoon, rodriguez and then frazier-but not for wbc belt so ok. And withespoon was not top contender he bacame after. At that time it was not strong 4 defences. What is Deontays best win Ortiz? Peter was beter as was Sanders. Would you agree?
Totally fair, but my opinion is that after he built that large lead with one of the knockdowns being a clearly, bad call, he just kinda waltzed around the last 6 rounds. He let Ruiz right back into the fight. No one could have realistically given Golota more than 1 round during the last half of the fight. Ruiz was pasting him with well timed shots and Golota just ate them.
John Ruiz was beaten by Roy Jones Jr. who came from the Lt.Heavyweight Division so how could the TS compare him with Vitali? They were not in the same league.
It's absolutely disgusting that this fraud was allowed to cheat so blatantly for so many years due to his connections to King. Any assessment of Ruiz's resume should take into account the illegitimate nature of virtually all of his "wins" over decent fighters. Properly evaluated there is NO comparison between the shameful and fraudulent record of Ruiz, and that of Vitali Klitschko.
mmm Holyfield was certainly on hgh and steroids. also don’t forget holyfields headbutt. vitali proven drug cheat Don’t throw stones in glass houses
