    I'll take Pink. He had better boxing skills and was tough. Late 80s Pink gets put in orbit though.

    Berbick beat Thomas but this isn't important in this case because Berbick's
    chin was much more better than Ruddock's.(Berbick went the distance with
    the 100% prime Holmes and this looked impossible before their fight)
    Only the prime (maybe the strongest version) Tyson and Mercado( when Berbick was absolute green) could knock out him.
    Ruddock'chin always looked vulnerable when his opponent was dangerous (Smith,Tyson,Lewis,Morrison) and the prime Thomas could fight.
    Another question Ruddock proved incredible heart against Tyson and Smith.

    Yes Tyson was far better in 1987 and the Ruddock fights were in 1991
    without the D'amato team.
