This is what should happen.

[KnockoutTheFat]

If that's the case I'm not watching the fight...
Their fight did like 140 clinches.

[Derranged_]

They should fight for the interim belt and depending on Chagaev's health; he'll fight the winner...

[Derranged]

Not that I want to see this fight but it would be nice to see Ruiz get a second crack at this guy in AMERICA cause of what happened the last time..

[SkillspayBills]

To be serious I don't really want to see this fight. It's probably warranted in the interim though.

[macman]

Agree that this should be mandated for the interim belt & Chagaev fighting the winner.

Probably not going to be much to watch, but they are both legitimate top heavy's ranked 2 & 3, so this as about as legitimate as you can get.


Very dissapointed in Chagaev - he really looked like becoming something special on the way up, but it has been one disappointment after another since he won the title.

well ruiz does deserves a shot his fight with valuev was pretty close no matter how ugly it was

[daggum]

ruiz, valuev, and chageav have hijacked this crappy wba belt and are holding it hostage "watch us or die" I REFUSE

[BetterthanSugar]

what

If John Ruiz gets another shot at the WBA belt then i deserve one. This guy is the least entertaing fighter I have ever seen in my life. The only fights of his i enjoyed was David Tua knocking him out in twenty seconds and James Toney beating his ass over twelve rounds.If I ran any sanctioning body the last guy I would want holding my belt in the air is John Ruiz the greco roman boxer. He holds more then he fights don't make the fight please god.
