    Look at Ruiz resume. Yeah, he isn't a quality win. Sure he clinched his way to victory but hey it was a winning method. He fought good fighters at that point, beat Holyfield right after Holy's good showing against Lewis.

    Although Roy should've fought Lewis After that fight with Ruiz, I believe. Had he done that it would've meant more even if he loss. And btw you obviously don't like Roy Jones...

    I do like Roy Jones. I like all fighters, but facts are facts. You can dispute almost any "quality" win on Ruiz's resume. Not saying RJJ isn't a good fighter or even that his resume isn't better than PBF's, but Ruiz should not be looked at as a quality win - period.

    Quantity: Mayweather

    Judah was not just coming off that lost he was 1-1 against Cory Spinks prior to his Baldi fight ...


    And beating Gatti is no big accomplishment everyone beats him !

    Hill defended his LHW title 20 times. His loss prior to losing to Jones was to Michalczewski, who was unbeaten and ended up defending his title over 20 times and is a HoF. Judah never held a title for very long, and lost to Baldomir, a journeyman. There is no comparison between their respective losses OR their careers. They are no where near equal. Hill has him by a bit.

    Pazienza is a better fighter than Baldomir, and if they fought Pazienza would have beaten him by easy UD. Every bit as tenacious as Baldomir with much faster hands.

    And Manfredy over Johnson. Reggie Johnson? Manfredy WAS a top contender throughout his career. You know how many titles he has? None, zero, zilch. Johnson in comparison is a two weight champion MW and LHW. Manfredy beat Gatti? Johnson beat Steve Collins.

    The comparison can go back and forth as to who you like out of Jones and Mayweather (and I don't think it's quality over quantity....I think Jones has more quantity as well, though their names may not ring out as much, many were better fighters). But your comparison here was just not good.

    I said " Not saying that RJJ's resume isn't better" -- read it before you assume

    That fact that you think the Judah win is greater than a Tarver win is why I probably think your on crack Judah only fought MW as a favor to Judah ..
