When will he ever go away?! This will hold off an unification fight with Klitschkos! Who wants to see Ruiz wrestle again?
Exactly. A few people on here actually defend the state of the heavyweight division. I think watching fighters like Marquez and his superb technique, footwork and timing really puts the division into perspective.
I don't want to see Ruiz fight for the title again. I would like to see him fight Tua again just to see if he can reverse that fight. I cannot believe the WBA gave him the mandatory. Why can't Tua ever come back and become the mandatory? Tua also beat Ruiz in 30 seconds like I said. Would Ruiz take that rematch? Valuev vs. Tua would be nice.
I cannot believe this bul****. What´s about Holyfield? And a bout with one of the Klitschkos? We will never see an undisputed Champion because of box politics.
And what about Holyfield didn't they promise him a rematch against winner of Valuev v Chaga!? So we can end up with these 4 fighting for title for another year! Just great! and who ever will lose in clash between Chaga/Valuev will be mandatory for winner between champion vs Ruiz so it will never end and then there is holyfield! ****!
Imagine it. We might be treated to Holyfield/Ruiz 4 in the near future. This just proves that heavyweight boxing is the biggest disgrace in the sport now.
yes I can imagine that! Its damn shame HW division has come to this! the only good fighters there are is Klitschkos! And they will not fight each other! I think fans just needs to recognize Wlad as the champ and ignore other "champions"! I can't believe that after 8 years there can be rematch between Ruiz and Holyfield for major title when holy is nearly 50 years old!!!:yikes
Hopefully Ruiz will be able to fight on American soil, because otherwise, you'll have to knock out Valuev, and even then, Valuev will probably get the decision. If you want unification, hope that Ruiz gets the WBA belt, because only the Quietman is willing to take on anyone and anywhere.
Connections, connections - it's the story of Ruiz's career. Undeserved title shot after undeserved title shot, a free pass for his illegal tactics - that's what connections to powerful promoters will do for you. Ruiz is the POSTER BOY for boxing corruption.
