    The worse thing is waking up everyday to find John Ruiz hasn't announced his retirement and that instead he's whined his way to another WBA title shot.

    I think fighters who lose a title shot should be required to beat another boxer ranked in the top 15 to earn another chance to challenge a belt holder.ie. ruiz would have to fight the likes of Aerrola,Kevin Johnston,Dimitrenko etc

    Huck vs Arslan the battle of the fringe contenders i like this one. You have Adamek, Cunningham an Jones on the top level and Huck, Arslan, and the old guard (Bell, Mormeck, etc) on the lower level.

    Holyfield being allowed to fight at a world level is a terrible low and a blow to the HW division.

    I'd put Mormeck up on the top level, although I would like to see how much he's got left after Haye.

    I criticise Enzo Maccarinelli a lot, but he does have a very decent win over Braithwaite.

    Enzo has become very under rated since his weak showIng against David Haye.

    He's better than most skill set wise and has the power to trouble absolutely any CW.

    The Holyfield-Valuev fight in itself was probably the lowest low.
