Sanders was never the lineal unified champ. He just showed up out of shape and landed a bomb on wlad that sent him into panic mode both Rahman and holy were.
When did Byrd beat Tyson, Bruno, Tucker, Ruddock, Morrison, Mercer, Rahman, Mason, Akinwande, McCall or even Golota?
some sense finally, but I held my tongue as to not derail the thread. ruiz has better wins than vitali, and this is what happens. Klit fans bring up unrelated fighters. Makes no sense
this question has no bearing on what I was talking about. Now you are bring up different opponents, which has nothing to do with HOW one wins. Obviously having Holy on your resume is better. how TF is that even a legit question?
who said that? I said sanders landed a big shot and he panicked. This is the pre steward wlad remember? The gunslinger with no care in the world as he threw bomb after bomb? also why are we now talking about how easy it is to beat wlad? also sanders was ko’d by Rahman. rahman was a unified and lineal champ. Ruiz beat him
I would rather win a close decision over an elite fighter than smash a C rated fighter. See what I mean?
WTF!!?! Is this what you think you and I are disagreeing about?? Beating an elite of beating a journeymen?? If you think this is our discussion, you need to re-read **** better....
Im on the comment that started it. ‘How you win counts’ re reviewing resume. I agree, however it depends on quality of opponent. would you rather an entertaining back and forth win over 38 year old sanders or a legit decision win over a 38 year old ATG in holyfield? or a tko battering win over Sam Peter or a win over former unified champ rahman who had cleaned lennoxs clock? A rahman that fought for the belts nearly 6 years later? im talking about quality wins. Who has the better names on their resume? It’s Ruiz.
I knew people would start bringing up fury, wlad etc. Let’s keep it basic. Vitalis top 5 wins Ruiz’s top 5 wins not who won in better fashion, not who had the better haircut, not why fury is the worst ever. Just the best wins and why it makes either Vitalis resume better or Ruizs. yes Ruiz lost more, but so did ali, Tyson, wlad etc etc
