    I have to agree Toney win was better than the Ruiz win.

    Ruiz - WBA
    Byrd - IBF
    Lennox - WBC
    Wladimir -WBO

    For RJJ to win a title, Ruiz was the best option.

    Shot Tyson of 03 could have given RJJ a tougher fight.

    But to win titles at MW, SMW, LHW and HW is still an impressive feat IMO. Deserves respect for it regardless.
