Bermane Stiverne vs. Cristobal Arreola II & Amir Imam vs. Yordenis Ugas RBR

Even had Trinidad never existed, I don't think most boricuas would be rushing to claim Ruiz as their own. :yep

Having no famous boxer from your neck of the woods is preferable to having someone whose fame - or rather notoriety - comes from his awful unwatchable style and having Don King maneuver him into undeserved title opportunities wherein some of the judges may or may not have gotten bought off. :!:

I say this as someone whose neck of the woods Ruiz does hail from.

Nobody here is ever like "Hey, remember that last great heavyweight we had, back in the 90's/early 00's?"

Nah, our last great was Hagler and last great heavy was Marciano (and before that Langford and before that Sullivan). :good

 

Respectable accomplishment given where Jones started his climb, even if Ruiz was an easy-picking paper champ.

 

Suggesting he might be distracted by Arreola's tits? :hey

 

Coming up after the break:

Amir Imam vs. Yordenis Ugas, 8 rounds @ light welterweight

 

I don't know about that.

 

This will not be fun. :dead
