Can Ruiz hug his way to a slopy victory vs Wlad?

How should he by jabbing n holding. Wlad is the master at jabbing n holding. so wlad has 44 kayos by jabs or holds?

Didn't Ruiz wrestle the big Valuev around? He might be able to hug Wlad long enough to get him tired and lose his legs. Then Ruiz would be at the top of the world again!:nonono:

i think wlad would be able to keep him away the same way he did to ibragimov

Did he not overpower Rahman a few years ago though? You can call Rahman all the names in the world but a weakling is not one of them.

John Ruiz wouldn't be able to beat Wlad, he doesn't have the power to get his attention, the speed, or the size. it's tough to wrestle a 6'6" 240 lb. man for 12 rounds effectively, especially one who has a ramrod of a jab. I would absolutely love to see Wlad knock Ruiz the fuck out.

Pretty much sums up the state of the HW division.

Someone mentioned strength. One thing Ruiz certainly has is strength.

How should he by jabbing n holding. Wlad is the master at jabbing n holding.

let us pray that he can not..

I think there would be 18 deaths in the arena from this fight... All suicides

if that fight were to happen, wlad vs ruiz, it would be the first time ever i would be rooting for wlad...................... i wouldn't even piss on ruiz's gums if they were on fire, i can't stand that guy and certainly can't stand watching him in the ring. i was going to say fight but ruiz doesn't fight, he holds and complains. john ruiz is a wart on boxing, a big ugly, nasty, looking wart.................

wlad will destroy ruiz!

No, and if this fight ever gets made I am OUT on the heavyweights forever.

Wlad by murder

Id love to see Klitshko knock Ruiz the fuck out. Unfortunately Ruiz is very good at what he does, which is hug and spoil and this would probably turn out to be another terrible heavyweight fight. Hopefullly it wont happen. Imagine Ruiz v Skelton. That would probably be the worst fight ever.

Or could we see another Tua like blitz in a couple of rounds? He's been slowly garnering up a decent list of wins vs second tier, but notable HWs. Fights with Valuev and Chagaev were very close too. Do you think Wlad would be prepared to hangle Ruiz's style? Ruiz might be able to make Wlad look bad, dragging him down to his level. As far as beating him, I just can't see it. He doesn't have the speed, punch, or strength to get it done.
