    This guy is what boxing is all about. He comes out of nowhere, has to fight his way to the top. He's got heart, chin and power in spades.

    To top it all off, he's very humble. He says he doesn't care about belts or money, just wants to give the fans good fights. What more could you want?

    I became a big fan of him after the Bradley fight and couldn't be happier that he's now in the spotlight. Guys like Ruslan are VERY good for the sport.

    He's borderline Eskimo, raw fish and meat to him is like a Big Mac to us! Ha

    He's a tough *******, wish him the very best.

    I don't expect him to be a champion much longer, sad to say.

    Right!:shock:
    That is a brutal climate:|
    I lived way up north in Alaska for over 3 years and it damn near killed me:|

    This kid is slowly improving his boxing skills but he is a warrior:good

    His style of fighting and opponent match making won't make for a very long career,but hopefully he makes a few bucks before the end -if he doesn't get taken advantage of his various handlers.
    Will be fun to watch while it lasts.:good

    Dont worry about his money....He's making big money already, and he'll go on to make bigger money. Worry about YOUR money.

    Impossible not to like the guy.
    He deserves a bite of the cherry, lets hope he can earn some decent bucks, and not be ripped off.

    Not the most skilled kid but all heart and guts. Sometimes will goes over the skill and ruslan looks like one. Really heart warming story he is. Ruskan is living up hîs dream now. Two times he has silenced the critics in a row with his emphatic performances.:good
