    This started today when our topic turned to the craptastic state of the HW division. Someone compared Holyfield to a cockroach which led to a comparison to Ruiz, which led to this thought...
    considering they currently hold a record of 1-1-1 against each other.
    And since that time they both hold wins over Fres Oquendo, wins over Hasim Rahman, losses to Nicolai Valuev and a loss/nc to James Toney it's a much closer comparison then any of us imagined.



    So with all due respect to the fighters it's time to call a spade a spade...the question stands, who is the biggest HW cockroach?

    out of the 4, toney. Guys talks all kinds of **** about the klits yet when he's had an offer to fight one of them, he don't want any.

    his delusional fans on here love to ignore these facts. though some r coming to grips with reality.

    I'd say Valuev, Chagev and Ruiz are bad too cause they are holding the wba belt hostage they only fight each other, get injured or sick and can't knock out any decent hws.

    For this very reason the WBA is currently dead to me. I pretend it doesn't exist and it's kind'of not so bad.
    Toney is defiantly a great offender and seemingly unkillable bug, he has not shown any quality in years but as long as his gums still flap people assume he is relevent.

    Definitely Ruiz.

    He literally owns the WBA title.

    They're all as bad as each other, and all need to go really.

    Grievesy, your avatar looks like Audley Harrison wantin to hit Vivian Harris in the face.....

    Answer is Rahman.... That was easy.... Atleast Ruiz wins or losses dubiously, except against Chagaev... Rahman finds ways to lose.. get em outta here..

    Toney, the guy is a non-factor at HW yet still get's fights and is in talks about title shots and let's not even get to some of his delusional followers.

    Nah, its Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank. And I suspect that Benn wanted to do more than hit him in the face.

    So when the earth dies and we are all extinct, all that will remain is Evander Holyfield still trying to capture another world title?

    That's probably the same face Danny Williams makes when there's pie in the room...

    Back to the subject, im surprised people are picking Ruiz... Atleast Ruiz fights decent people and barely wins... Sure he jab and grabs his way to victory but look at who he's beaten........ Evander Holyfield, Jameel McCline, HASIM RAHMAN, Fres Oquendo, Andrew Golota, Kirk Johnson, and other people who need no mention...

    That cheater Ruiz of course. How many times did he lose the HW title only to get another undeserved title shot, which he then cheated in to "win" the title. That's what the influence of Don King will do for a glorified clubfighter.
