    This was not a clear decision, your judgement is totally biased.

    I have not seen a foreign fighter win a close decision against a german promoter fighter in a fight taken place in Germany since Maske - Hill 12 years ago. Do you?

    I respect your opinion but the reporter yesterday Werner Kastor just kept ignoring Ruiz shots. I like him but he tends to overlook a lot of the action in the ring. Maybe that influenced your judgement a little bit too.

    Hasnt been to many I gotta say.

    But I think these might qualify.

    Beyer-Sanavia
    Harris-Urkal
    Veit-Braemer?
    Nelson-Petkovic


    I think people have this preconceived idea that all close fights in Germany must be robberies which is not the case mostly.

    Gave it to Valuev but very close,if you count the KD in the 2nd Ruiz wins,and that KD was supposed to be counted

    Granted it was in 95, but when Axel Schulz fought Foreman the German fighter actually wound up being robbed against the travelling opponent. If ever there was a time for them to want to make sure a decision went the "hometown" way, one would think it'd be when they had the chance to have the first German HW champ since Max Schmeling.

    I watched the whole thing and Ruiz lost. He didn't deserve any win.
