Just to let you know i think this is highly unlikley, but still. Can Ruiz actually put up a good enough performance to win? What if he *gasp* KO'd Toney? What would your innitial reaction be?
It's a win/win for you so shut the fuck up. I have all of the confidence in the world that Toney will win so keep that silly shit to yourself. Again...I've supported Toney almost as long as you've been alive (by the way you speak you can't be older than 16) so save that "more confidence in your fighter" stuff. Hell, if Ruiz wins you can have my wittle custom title and can have your own little enshrinement in my sig too if it makes you feel like you're on my level.
getting a little touchy eh, and what do u mean by on yr level? are u a superior human being then me if thats what yr trying to say?
I know...it's like they were pre-empting the knockout every time he threw it. He did crack him a few good times but it's like the announcers thought that a flush Hearns right hand meant nite nite.
I also used that in my speech (never recalling him being hurt). I had to make arguments against the opposing POV and stuff...saying why Ali, Marciano, LaMotta didn't have quite the chin that Hagler had. It was so funny, 99% of my class was like, "what the hell is he talking about?" :D
most non boxing fans probably don't know who Hagler is. If its not Tyson,Holyfield or DeLaHoya..nobody outside our Boxing faternity knows any of these guys. Thats what is so great about this forum. In my real life, not only do none of my friends have the "sickness",but none of then like boxing period....except for a reason to drink and watch a ppv
nice..I wrote you a long diatribe on hagler in pm. I sent it and my computer went haywire and didn't send it for some reason. It was late and I was too tired to rewrite it..sorry. Sounds like you didn't need it.
The uppercut that Mugabi hit Hagler with in the fourth round should have knocked out Hagler. He didn't even flinch. After his head almost snapped off, he continued forward. I don't recall Marvin ever being hurt visably in the ring. The Hearns rights were not as hard as the announcers made it seem. They were saying Hagler was on the verge of being knocked out?..what a joke.

heh i understand.
It went well. I was only supposed to speak for 5-6 minutes but I ended up going for 8:47 :eek:
I think that's due to the fact that I demonstrated how Tommy Hearns crushed Hagler with that famous cross and Hagler just walked through it. I also really got into the Mugabi fight and spoke about how he hit Hagler with everything but the kitchen sink but still couldnt hurt him. I really just went off my memory and kind of improvised with it. I think I got an A so that's good.

no offense, just have to stick up for my namesake :D
how did the Hagler report go?

Yeah...thats what I was trying to say. It was bogus and had 0 effect on the fight.

for the record..it was officially ruled a kd, but it was obviously not.

I mean, Marvin Hagler was KD'ed by Roldan but it's really not a big deal now is it.

I don't get why people think their opinions have to be the consensus opinions. The thread title implies that the majority of posters would be shocked if Ruiz won, which simply isn't true. I would say 35% of all forum members and around 50% of all posters with 1,000 or more posts would think Ruiz is going to win...
unfortunately, I think Ruiz will win..and I pray I'm wrong
psh tried to make it interestimg thought u would have more confidence in yr fighter then that but hey ok. aint gonna take yr money if don king pullz another ruiz-golota though

How about if Ruiz wins...you can have 100M points and get to say that Toney is a fat-ass all you want...and if Toney wins, I just get the satisfaction of knowing that he beat the gayest HW champ in the division and you give me nothing. You, or one stupid fight isn't enough to make me leave the forum that I've been a part of longer than you...don't flatter yourself.

you gonna tell me this isnt fat?
and when my "boyfriend" is the middleweight champ what u gonna say huh? i cant wait till the people i root for win and shut u bias fuckers up, i know i aint the smartest boxing dude around cause im young but that doesnt mean i dont know jack.
Hmmm look at the picture and then look at what happened afterwards...you make the connection.
I'm not biased...I have given Sturm a lot of credit in the past. I hope it didn't upset you that I said that he wouldn't be able to beat B-Hop, but it's the truth. He's a nice fighter who can have some success at middle, but he's really not some extraordinary force to be reckoned with.
I know that James has had problems with his weight...but it's really not that big a deal. He's been saying since '91 that he was going to be HW champ and I believe that. I've been a big fan of his since I was a kid and I'll root for him no matter what. That's 14 years dude...probably longer than Sturms been boxing. So if you want to call me a Toney nuthugger that's fine, but I didn't jump on the bandwagon so I can live with that.

hard to talk to someoen who has fat boy's nuts down his motuh seriously
You aren't talking to me. You are being a douchebag and nitpicking everything you can because you don't like James. It's cool man...everyone hates and likes different fighters. You shouldn't try to have a rational conversation if you're going to act like an 8 year old and say, "Toneys a fat ass toneys a fat ass"...
I actually wonder if you chuckle to yourself everytime you write that. It's really unoriginal, you should get some new material. Don't try to debate shit you don't know though man...stick to your boyfriend Felix and be content with your time here on boxingscene...
Who gives a fuck about big names. Everyone I named was either a good/great fighter or was a very game opponent. Jirov was the king of cruiser and Toney went up to him and fucked his whole career up. McCallum was still a very hard guy to beat when Toney drew/won those first two fights with him. Like I said before, he had just beat 4 very good fighters before those two bouts with Toney.

I honestly dont think even in close quarters that Ruiz can beat Toney. Even with all the wrestling tactics, Toney will still outmaneuver him and counter Ruiz badly. How is Ruiz going to be able to hurt Toney? Even tho Toney fought at middlewieght much of his career, he has one of the most durable chins ever. He has certainly faced better opposition than Ruiz.
a draw and 2 wins agaisnt a guy just as old as holyfield, and close fights as that, ill give u nunn and barkley, and jirov is good but not a big name. and when is that last time u heard about sos and littles and williams huh?
