At one time, Valuev vs McCline was billed as the heaviest fight ever at the combined weight of 590.6 lbs.
Does Ruiz vs Miller have a chance to surpass it?
I think both of them can make 300 easily.
Ruiz was not fighting for 2 years and Miller was doing... whatever he was doing in the can, presumably laying down and eating jail chow.
So Miller already is in the history books, its the only way he's going to get in but maybe if he spends enough time at the buffet he can beat the record he set.
As one of the greats said, records are meant to be broken.
Just checked Millers record,
Miller 314¾ vs Bracamonte 305½
619¾ - this must be the record.
i think that is also the only time it's been 300+ vs 300+
Miller Browne was 610.
I just looked this fight up, and you actually got the 1 and 4 switched. Miller was 341, while Bracamonte was 305. Either way, I think you've found the record.
Miller/Browne is the current record. And this won't beat it.

I'm sure when Jarrell Miller fought Lucas Brown, they weighed about 610+ combined. I'm not sure what headspace either fighter is in, but if they both come in at their heaviest, they'll be about 615+.
With that being said, I think Ruiz will come in about 260 and Miller around 330.
