    Two of the best wins of this century for two of the best fighters.


    JAMES TONEY v VASSILY JIROV, 2003

    and

    ROY JONES JR v JOHN RUIZ, 2003


    But which do you think was the better win of the two?

    This i would say is the hardest out of the lot to choose, jirov is by far the better boxer than ruiz but in terms of size roy gave up alot of size to fight ruiz and like him or not he was at least a decent heavyweight contender.

    I would say Jones because history was made that night. He also dominated Ruiz while making a bigger jump in weight that Toney did.
