Ruiz has troub le with shorter guys but Dempsey is 6' 1". Still I would think Dempsey would stop him in the third or forth round.
Put a hugger up against one of the most powerful short area-punching fighters in history...brilliant! Dempsey would make Ruiz's face look like hamburger by the time it was said and done.
Dempsey might actually murder Ruiz here Dempsey is Tua times 5 in everything except brute power and would blitz Ruiz early and finish him off within 2. Dempsey fought in an era where clinching was even more prevalent than it is today and Dempsey was one of the most dominant fighters ever.
Watch Dempsey Willard. Ruiz could very well pull off upsets of some very good fighters based on his unusual clinching style but Dempsey would batter him.
:rofl :rofl :rofl Oh, man I would LOVE to see this fight. Dempsey knocks that glorified clubfighter the **** out, BEFORE he has a chance to cheat.
He did a lot more to him than that. I searched around for a clip of the fight and found this -> http://members.boardhost.com/RickXTN/msg/1215448113.html It is almost as if Williard was thrown off the roof of a two story house. He was beaten bad.
