    Indeed. To call that a "victory" let alone "good" is ridiculous. Golota had Ruiz on the canvas twice, landed more punches, and got another point deduction! Yet, somehow, Ruiz got the decision.

    That's what connections with Don King will do for ya!

    there was something like 225 clinches in that fight. I remember a Boxing columnist re watched the fight and counted all of them. :lol::rofl:patsch

    That is pathetic. Ruiz is a fraud. His fights were so bad I could not even score the majority of the rounds properly because there was so much clinching, grabbing, holding, wrestling going on.

    Close fights with Chagaev and Valuev and a win over Jameel McCline.

    Don King owns 100% of Ruiz.
