This fight already has shenanigans written all over it....
the Ruiz-Toney clash is rumored to be headed to Don King's stomping grounds of south Florida, and my main man Toney just recently inked a co-promotional deal with Goossen and King, while John Ruiz has become more and more UN-popular over the past year with his visually-awful fights vs. Oquendo and Golota.
I could see this being an even-steven fight for 12 rounds, with Toney taking a curious split decision with scores of, say, 118-110 for Toney, 116-112 for Ruiz, then 115-113 for the new champ James Toney (I really had to look deep into the crystal ball for this one!)

I don't care where the fight will take place. The outcome will probably the same, Ruiz hugging and dancing and winning by unanimous decisions. I wonder if he would keep hugging and dancing if his opponent was a homosexual? :D
hmm
He judges a lot of the big fights in Vegas. Judged Jones-Tarver and I think was in Johnson-Tarver and many others I just cannot name. He scored Jones-Tarver 114-114.
He also judged Vargas-Flores and Klitschko-Williams.
Anybody have any info on this Jerry Roth?.......Rockin'
Roth had Mayorga-Forrest 2 a draw (not a bad call, I was at that fight & it was even-steven most of the way)
BUT Roth had Trinidad beating Oscar by a long-shot, which was pretty bogus....

just some general info....Roth has been a Nevada judge for about 25 years now (or so it would seem), he usually has the most un-biased scorecard out of the group of three, I'm gonna do some research and find some of his actual scorecards for big fights tho.....
What makes South Florida Don King's stomping grounds and what makes you think the fight wil even be held there?
Jerry Roth and Duane Ford are normally good judges so I hope they will be judging it. Maybe they'll get my uncle to judge but I don't know if he does that.
The corporate offices for Don King Productions are in Deerfield, FLORIDA.
lol
