    Pure shits and giggles fight...the stinging kangeroo that butchered turner against the puerto rican deacon. yes, the only footage we have is a few minutes of a random fight (and the video with the hipster analysis) but lets imagine

    Ruiz uglies out a decision. He's much better than Turner and Jones and Toney were much bigger than Burley.

    good answer but devil's advocate: could burley keep enough distance to avoid the mauling tactics of ruiz and potshot a decision much like jones did

    Burley wasn't that fast, although he does look quick. He'll fight him like Toney does, but won't have the heft Toney did. But hell maybe i'm underrating Burley.
