John Ruiz vs. Shannon Briggs

Spot on! Briggs is and has always been way overrated. Foreman and Botha were robbed.

 

Jesus Christ you are obsessed... This thread has nothing to do with Wlad you spaz.

 

Not to change the topic but I also can't believe what wlad gets away with. It's a whole different level to what Lennox Lewis did which in my opinion was also ridiculous. I'd rather see low blows and elbows than a giant mean leaning all his weight on his opponent to tire him out. Ruiz held because he would do the same thing over and over. He moved his head jabbed once or twice and then threw a loopy right hand while he was coming forward and then he would hold to the break. It was terrible but effective against opponents especially slow guys. It didn't work against guys with speed and good movement and that's why jones didn't have any problems with him.

 

As dirty as Wladimir is, he does not come close to Lewis.
Lewis did not just leaned on opponents (and intentionally fell on Holyfield) , but held the head while uppercutting.
Wladimir is a cleaner fighter than Ali, Holmes, Tyson and Lewis.
