Is John Ruiz the worst Heavyweight Champion in 30 years, or of all time?

I dont know if he's the worst, but god i hate him

 

First Holyfield fight was 10 years ago but anyway.

Golota
Oquendo
Rahman
Mcline
Kirk Johnson

 

Ruiz could very well beat Braddock.

RJJ would definetely beat Braddock and maybe Patterson.

 

Doubtful on Patterson.

He's fast enough to land his big left hook on Roy. Roy doesn't have the power at Heavy to stop Patterson.

 

Ruiz isn't one of the worst 10 heavyweight titlists of the past decade, much less worst of all time.

I'd also give Ruiz a better than 50% chance to beat four lineal champs (Willard, Braddock, old Foreman and Briggs).

 

Ruiz lost the first Holyfield fight and in the 2nd, Holyfield was 38.

Valuev's resume looks at least as good(bad).

 

Prob not the worst but up there, there has been so many

 

Whats Valuev got to do with it?? He's not close to being the worst either dopey draws.

Jog On

 

Maybe, maybe not. Roy has a crisp punch, not many HW's would knock our Griffin in one round. Patterson doesn't have the best chin himself.

Another HW champ that Roy could beat would be Michael Moorer. Yes, Moorer was skilled, but he never faced a speed demon like Roy and I am not sure that he hit harder that Ruiz.

 

:good

 

Patterson would have killed Jones. Patterson was only stopped by atg punchers and the greatest hw of all time. Wha does make you think little Roy would dent his chin?

 

If Jones fights the Braddock of he Baer fight he loses. And pretty clear although.

 

Yes they would. LOTS of them.

Moorer hit about ten times as hard as Ruiz. You really don't have a clue do you?

 

Willard and Braddock at their best beat Ruiz at his best. Ruiz beats old Foreman and Briggs though. :good

 

How did Mooreer hit so much harder than Ruiz??

Most of Moorers KOs were against Light Heavy's
