John Ruiz was a C Class HW champion. Nothing more, nothing less. He was the Andre Berto of the division at the time; not the top guy and not the bottom guy. Given a 33 lb weight advantage, take it how you will. It was a MAJOR accomplishment, trumping all of Floyd's accomplishments when you consider where Roy started and the risk of getting clipped by someone weighing 33 lb's bigger than you and was a HW title holder.
It's funny how you guys like to use "title holder" when talking about Floyd's accomplishments, but refuse to acknowledge John Ruiz also being a title holder when Roy beat him.
Floyd has many John Ruiz-esqu title wins on his resume.
