    Heavyweight

    12 rounds

    Canelo has 1 year to bulk up

    Who wins?

    Easily Clenelo...Ruiz will play tippy tap jab with Canelo and then will get KOd by the monster punching Khan KOing killer

    Roided to the gills CW-HW Clenelo would probably outbox John Ruiz who was terrible.

    Ruiz was too big for Roy, as has been said. Ruiz was awful. .....But he SHOULD win.

    Jones was naturally far bigger than Canelo, 5`8 is far too short at heavyweight and no fighte with Canelo`s reach could beat a fighter the size of Ruiz, plus Canelo doesn`t have Roy`s movement to able to evade heavyweight punches.

    Sorry but even Canelo knows that would be a step too far. Roy was a phenom at that point in his career, way quicker, way more powerful, also naturally bigger height, width and length wise. I rate Canelo highly but not prime Roy Jones Jr highly.

    Canelo has no style to KO or outbox Ruiz. In some ways they are similar fighters, so bigger man should beat a smaller man. Thats my conclusion

    I wouldn't say John Ruiz was terrible...

    ...but his fights were about as fun as helping your grandmother change her colostomy bag.

    Fight night weights for RJJ - 160s when young, probably up to 180-ish at LHW

    Fight night weights for Canelo - 170s when young, 180s now

    RJJ certainly taller and longer but not ‘bigger’

    Ruiz in 6
