- - I'd think a Tuna is greater than a howler monkey.

They swim faster, jump higher, and a lot tastier than the howling of a howler monkey.

I wouldn't apply the adjective to either.

[mrbig1]

Who is greater? I vote none of the above. Ruiz fought better fighters of that means anything.

[Marchegiano]

well then who did better?

[Willow The Wisp]

Ruiz had less and made the most of it.
Grant had a lot of natural gifts and made considerably less with it.

[Slugfester]

Ruiz had much stronger ankles.

Ruiz is a little better, but far from a world beater.

[Spray_resistant]

The winner faces the winner of Lance Whitaker vs Tye Fields for the title of best mediocre fighter of the early 2000s.
