I pretty much agree with all of Zakman´s hate for Ruiz. Ruiz does have some toughness and some, but quite limited skills - other than that he´s nothing and his methods of fighting, his cheating, his faking of low blows, his self righteous whining and his imbicile former manager Norman Stone, are all a disgrace to the sport and every TV channel that has shown Ruiz´s fights. I would love to have Wlad KOTFO Ruiz. I enjoyed seeing Toney outclass Ruiz more than any other fight I´ve watched.
Wlad by UD. The thing with this jab and grab style is that you need to get off first and then smother any possibility of a counter by grabbing your oppoenent. This is why Ruiz was perfect for the much faster RJJ. Wlad posseses too much of an advantage in terms of reach, jab and speed.
There is nothing Ruiz can do that Wlad cannot do better. Wlad is taller, faster, stronger, hits harder, is more skilled, and in better condition. Wlad would make a highlight reel type of ko of him. He would finish Ruiz the way Golota should have in the second round of their fight.
^Exactly, it may happen if Ruiz wins the WBA belt, I don't doubt him doing that based on biased close decisions.
This fight will never happen. Why? Ruiz is nothing, means nothing, and has no belt, and will lose again to Valuev.
