Without King, Ruiz is nothing If the figh happens in Europe, Valuev is easy money. In the US it's 60-40 Valuev
I hope Valuev beats Ruiz but if the fight's in Germany Valuev should win a decision, hope he TKO's Ruiz but I thinkValuev will win a decision with his jab. And HBO needs to put Valuev on HBO for this fight, you got a 7 foot marketing machine and you're not taking advantage of it.
Valouev will beat Ruiz again, by TKO, KO or UD. Valouev looks the same in the 12th round as he does in the first, very underrated fighter.
Let's all hope Mr. Ruiz gets a fair decision after he beats Valuev again so he can knock out Vladdy in a unification bout and get the respect he deserves.
Ruiz will never get respect from boxing fans, nor should he. He is a cheater and a disgrace to the sport. Hopefully Valuev will knock him out cold like Tua did.:yep
You have always been a hater just because fatboy Tua landed one lucky punch.John Ruiz would be a lock for the hall of fame if he could only get fair treatment from the refs and cheating judges.:hi:
Valuev will beat him again and this time it will be much more decisive. In Germany he stands no chance of getting his usual BS decisions he's gotten in the US
I´ll pick Valuev by a decision and a fair one at that, although I think he´ll also get the nod if he is outboxed, if he doesn´t get totally outclassed. I didn´t see the first fight, but even if Ruiz should have won, I have little sympathy for him. It´s not like Ruiz didn´t get gift decisions himself, like the horrible one against Golota. Lots of people also feel he lost the third Holyfield fight and that the DQ in the Johnson fight was uncalled for. He has also constantly cheated in his fights with his excessive holding, not just when opponents get close, because he launches into clinches, as well as his faked low blows. I really hope Valuev does a number on him and sends him out of boxing.
Then it would be up to Wlad, Vitali or Peter to KOTFO of the huggy bear! But Don King would probably line up Williamson, McBride, Mollo, McCall, Minto, Lyakhovich etc. for shots at Ruiz instead - puke :tired
i dont see a stoppage either way. say one thing for ruiz-he is reasonably durable,only tua has got him outta there. valuev UD
:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl What the hell is "fair" treatment?? :huh:nutLetting him fake low blows in EVERY fight?? Holding through the ENTIRE boxing match??atsch King's refs gave Ruiz ALL the lattitude he needed to cheat his way to a bogus paper belt. Notice how he hasn't "beaten" anyone above the fringe contender level since King dumped him??
