    Briggs & Rahman (linear).

    Most of the titlists post-1980's if they count.

    I believe Spinks lost his teeth when he was headbutted in sparring.
    o c'mon greatA, braddock was the man,
    gave us one of the biggest upsets in boxing history.

      Ruiz is pretty bad.

      Leon Spinks is hard to top.
      I get tired of hearing Ruiz's name whenever this subject is brought up. He sucks to watch, but was actually very effective and fought and beat plenty of the top names during his era.

      To many people judge Ruiz on his style and not on his actual accomplishments.

            One thing against Ruiz is that he lost the title twice to former Middleweight Champions. He did defeat Rahman and Holyfield, and was God awful to watch. His losses to Toney and Jones were one-sided and dreadful

                  At the same time, both have tested positive for steroids.

                  Im not saying they couldn't beat Ruiz with their natural talent alone, both are top 100 all time p4p fighters in my opinion. Ruiz is far from the worst champion, but he is far from the best too.

                      Maybe so but that doesn't make him the worst. wins over Floyd Patterson, Eddie Machen, Henry Cooper, Brian London, **** Richardson, Joe Erskine, Joe Bygraves and Archie McBride was decent better than Leon or Valuev's resume.
