    Gee, this isn't quite like asking who had a better resume, Muhammad Ali or Leon Spinks, but it ain't far off.

    Holmes but Ruiz has an underrated record by many.

    Holmes' record isn't all that great, best wins are Norton and Shavers. Two losses to LHW Spinks don't look too good either. Overalll though, he fought and beat a better level of competition than Ruiz, and he would destroy Ruiz H2H. Ruiz sucks.

    You would have to be crazy to not vote for Holmes.
