    Why would you post something like this man ?
    The guy fought for the HW championship, he later formed an organisation to help fighters who fell on hard times...
    Seriously , why ?

    My guess is: Gerry Cooney brutalizes Ruiz in a round.

    A frantic Norman Stone jumps in yelling "JAWNY!" The Stone Pony then takes a swing at Cooney but misses.

    Victor Valle runs across the ring with a Q-tip in his mouth and lays out Stoney with a right cross.

    Don King climbs in the ring and Dennis Rappaport decides to join in with Cooney and Valle. Dennis sees King, yells "TICK TOCK Muther F*CKER!" and charges King ... who easily sidesteps and trips Rappaport.

    Then Don King stomps Dennis Rappaport to death.

    And Cooney and Valle quietly exit the ring.

    morelocs, what do u know about him? He probably wasn't guided in the best way, had a drinking problem, took long layoffs. But he was brutal in the ring, and did a great job against the greatest, Larry Holmes! Wasn't a mugger, a curser, a wifebeater, WTF u got against him???

    Cooney via stoppage. The left hook will land at some point and incapacitate Ruiz. Ruiz is too small to maul the much larger and stronger Cooney. And he can't hurt Gerry. I am no Cooney fan but he had the attributes to beat Ruiz.

    You're obviously one of those posters who puts your feelings above logic. This is just a pathetically bad post.

    Cooney on top of his game stops Ruiz within the first 4 rounds I think.

    C'mon man. He is turning over in his grave. Haven't you soiled it enough? Please change it. Btw, he was everything great about boxing & life, while your false hero Calamity Cooney was quite the opposite. EARN-know what THAT word means?

    I'd favor Cooney too i reckon. His left hook power was extreme and he had that damaging jab which should land quite frequently here.

    "it's ugly it's rugged it's rough". The Ruiz style in a nutshell.

    Like I said your feelings obviously prevent you from offering any reasonable analysis on this topic and provide us a nice view of someone with emotional instability. Or, you are just a troll

    He knows that Cooney was a great white hope and made more money and got more opportunities than he deserved based on ring accomplishments.

    But, instead of accepting that the business of boxing is not fair he is filled with negative emotions and lashes out at Cooney, and other posters who see him for what he is.

    EARN eddiemustapha54. Another word you probably exemplify with Calamity-SILVERSPOON. CHERRY PICKER. LIAR. Go to a book place buy a dictionary and look these words up. One more for your fav fighter Cooney who you go on and on about-DISGRACE.
