    Not me. Ruiz may have won an alphabet title back then,but equally he may have had his ears boxed off by Page,Tucker,Williams,Witherspoon,Thomas.

    I’m pretty sure he would’ve won some and lost some. Comically enough, Ruiz is more consistent than a lot of 80s heavyweights.

    Yet you still think Ruiz could beat Berbick, Weaver, Page, James Smith, Spinks ect? Then you are also inflating Ruiz. Ruiz beat Joshua a hype jobs who best win so far in his career was against a washed up Wlad in fight he was almost knocked out in.
