    Akinwande holds on until the end, before Ruiz grabs it.

    Ruiz wins rather easily, just on accomplishments, Ruiz beat Holyfield, Rahman, Kirk Johnson, Goloata, and Valuev only to be robbed in another country..

    Who did Akwindae beat again:huh

    Wladimir Klitchko, hugs, grabs, holds, leans on the back, more than Ruiz..

    I don't know whats up with all these men and their ambition to keep holding during a boxing match, maybe it's just a creppy fetish to want to feel another mans sweaty, wet body next to thiers because it feels ***ier than the wife's..

    Ruiz would have dominated 100 years ago.

    History will bear him out as being great.

    Does anyone remember Akinwande's classic with Peter McNeeley?

    How is freaking out and getting DQ'ed because of excessive clinching any less embarrassing than what Roberto Duran did when he quit against Leonard? :lol:

    It's funny, you hear Akiwande's entire career misaligned because of that performance against a near consensus top ten heavyweight none the less, but no one holds Duran's feet to the flame anymore for something equally embarrassing on a far bigger level.

    Boxing fans sure are fickle!

    I think it's because Duran did so much more to overshadow it
