    Connolly was a 4th rater who was 8-5-0 he never beat even a third rate fighter.
    Schkor was having his last fight and had been ko'd byWalcott inside a round in his previous one, he was definitely on the way out.
    Vingo was a string bean novice of 17 fights who had beaten no one of note.
    Jackson was a 5th rate lump of lard 4-2-0 and never fought again after this mismatch.
    Wilson was stopped on a cut eye in the opening moments of the fight he had to be restrained from continuing,destroyed BS! lol

    David Jaco, far behind on points, was declared the winner when Donovan "Razor" Ruddock failed to answer the bell for the eighth round.

    "I had an asthma attack during the fight," Ruddock said later. "I started hyper-ventilating and the doctor stopped the fight." Others, including Jaco, said Ruddock quit. [1]

    "The day before the Jaco fight, Donovan was sick," said Delroy Ruddock, the boxer's brother and manager. "A doctor examined him and told him not to go ahead with the fight. But Donovan hadn't had a bout in, like, six months. His attitude was: 'I'll take a chance. The fight won't go the distance.' " [2]

    In a 1999 interview with Cyber Boxing Zone, Ruddock said he started taking the asthma medication Ventolin when he fought. He also stated: "I moved to Florida for the nice weather, and it's helped me quite a bit. I haven't had a problem with it since. I also had some serious large tonsils that were blocking my airway that I've had removed." [3]
    In his two fights with Tyson Ruddock proved beyond any doubt there was nothing wrong with his heart .
