lol Most people will pick McCline through hatred of Ruiz. Id got by Ruiz by ugly decision though. Boring fight with Ruiz doing his usuall jab and grab tactics, mauling on the inside and McCline not being able to free himself long enough to land two successive blows, and even when they do land, i dont think he has the popwer to KO Ruiz.
I hope McCline wins, KO or UD. He seems to be really motivated lately, despite losing to Peter and Byrd (and those were not easy wins for his opponents). He is really big, and this can make wrestling with him more difficult for Ruiz. Also, Ruiz is no longer King fighter, so I hope the referees would finally stop turning blind eye to his holding, hugging and wrestling.
Dear mother of God. This fight is going to be boring. As most said, Ruiz by an ugly and boxing UD by doing his usual tactics. Ruiz should be banned from boxing for being so boring.
McCline starts well and knocks Ruiz about, runs out of gas, Ruiz rallies and grapples his way to a UD12.
If McCline could get himself into his best possible shape, he can win this fight, maybe knock Ruiz out. Remember the time Tua KOed Ruiz? He doesn't have an iron chin. If McCline can floor Sam Peter three times, surely he's capable of stopping Ruiz.
Exactly, this should be a pretty easy win for Ruiz after the 4th or 5th round, Mccline has good Heavyweight power early and pretty fast hands for a big man. If Ruiz could weather the storm early, look for him to try to take Mccline out late, when he's tired, I think Ruiz is really going to try to make a statement in this fight.
Now cut that crap out! :twisted: Ruiz is not going to revert back to the wrestling style. He is a new man, has a new trainer, and will employ his NEW style throughout. :good (at least I hope he don't start his excessive hugging bull****, again, as I have been openly supportive of Ruiz, lately.)
Ruiz is way past-it and even in his prime he would have a lot of trouble with McCline. McCline by pretty wide UD.
