    Haye wins.
    Ruiz is getting on in years and is unable to initiate clinches like he used to.

    I think this fight is more interesting than some ppl think. Ruiz is a genuine heavyweight fight. However although he'll pose some tricky problems early on I dont think he is quick enough or defensive minded enough to avoid the shots Haye will throw.

    I think by round 6 Ruiz will be ready to be stopped.

    So you're saying Haye by TKO/KO...a prime Ruiz would have taken Haye the distance. Is Ruiz really far past his best?

    Haye is going to destroy this cheating piece of garbage. Hopefully he will knock him out cold like Tua did.

    Haye by stoppage, he won't fight as cautiously against Ruiz as he did on Saturday night and will end the sudden hype about Haye being a 'boring' fighter.

    The only way to beat Ruiz is to assault him before he can get his hands up. That's what Tua did, and Haye would have to do the same. But Ruiz knows that, so I don't think he will allow that to happen. He will time Haye and grab him every chance he gets. Haye will tire and will start to suffocate in the later rounds. If he is lucky, he finishes with a squeaker of a split decision.

    Haye is gonna destroy Ruiz. This will look like a replay of Tua-Ruiz all over again.

    And the division will FINALLY be rid of this disgraceful cheater.

    Ruiz has not been stopped since Tua. I don't think we'll ever see a replay of that. If Haye does get the KO, it will come after a bit of work. Haye does not hit as hard as prime Tua, and Ruiz is much more durable than Barret, who lasted 5 rounds.

    It is hard to beat Ruiz cleanly. I dont think haye has ever fought anyone quite like him. I suspect haye can earn a decision if he decides to work in the fight. If Haye puts on another stinker I have no qualms with Ruiz beating him. This will be a real test for Haye.

    If haye beats Ruiz decisively I will give him heavyweight respect. If it is a close fight I know where haye is as a heavy.

    :good The fight will go to the cards or Ruiz gets a stoppage. I highly doubt Haye stops Ruiz. It all comes down to haye working for the win. Ruiz's "defense" is very effective at stopping other's offense. Will haye work for it? remians to be seen.

    Haye will club Ruiz every time he goes in for a hug.
