if Roy Jones retired after beating Ruiz....

Ruiz was a bum.... I can't believe RJJ fanboys claim that to be an ATG win

Ruiz sucked.... How many highway robberies did that joke receive due to his connections with King? How much blatant fouling was he able to get away with? Hitting and holding, Faking low blows, excessive clinching(think Wlad is bad, watch all of Ruizs fights after Tua!)

Definition of a paper champion! He never won his belt, he was awarded it because Lewis knew he was a joke and refused to waste his time with this joke.... King wanted to tap into the Latino market, saw Ruiz as a means to do so....

I can't stress the importance of this article... Newer boxing fans need to read this, puts Ruiz and Jones win over him into a much better context...

 

Who are the 13 people who voted GOAT? :roll:

 

Being a proven steroid cheat effects his ATG ranking far heavier than any fight after Ruiz.

 

At least 54% of people dksab.

 

Had he just defended his paper title, at HW, 3-4 times...he could have been immortal.

He could have EASILY beaten Holyfield, Oquendo, Rahman, etc.

Whoever advised him to go back to LHW is a moron. He could have kept his HW title, made some serious cash, then retired on top of the boxing world.

Plus, seeing him at HW would have been super exciting.

Oh, and I am not a huge RJJ fan. Just throwing that out there.

atsch:rofl

Well too bad he ducked Holyfield, and Rahman would have knocked Roy out as well.... Rahman can knock out Lewis, but he can't knock out a roided up LHW with a glass chin
