they are both ridiculous. but i have to go with ruddock dokes becasue the fight shoulda been stopped before that last punch. dokes was out cold on the ropes and ruddock just wound up and smashed him again, everyone loves a knockout but its scary to see when a fight is out cold and he just keeps gettin hurt like that. but both are pretty brutal.
Both were rough - but I think Dokes Razor. Tua Ruiz was really a quick one - Ruiz was beat down good - but it was so quick I think it would be easier to recover. We have all seen those quick first round knockdown - this was just a lot rougher than most.
The Dokes kayo..
I remember seeing it. There was a vicious prefight staredown and I felt something had to give.
The knock-out itself was most terrifying and watching a Michael Dokes turned completely grey afterwards made me feel quite sick.
Tua vs Ruiz because Ruiz still hasn't gotten over it.
Everytime he fights a puncher he turns into a hugger.
Dokes was knocked out pretty bad though... but that Tua hook lifted Ruiz off his feet.
