By Jake Donovan - It’s been nearly a month since a significant boxing telecast has taken place on a Saturday evening, with the sport all but going on hiatus for much of the month of August. The live weekend action resumes on August 30, with not one but two rematches, both of which happen to take place in the very same arena as its predecessor. [details]

Mr.Donavan, Roy Jones became the first Lt. Heavy to win the Heavyweight title in over 100 yrs.? Did you ever hear of a boxer by the name of Michael Spinks? Who was the legitimate Lt. Heavy champ who moved up and won the legitimate Heavyweight title. With all due respect to Ruiz and Jones,Ruiz was barely a top 10 heavy let alone the legitimate champ.Jones never defended his "title" and in his next fight was KTFO by Antonio Tarver at Lt. Heavy.

Middleweight. I meant former middleweight champ!!! Ah, the embarrassment. Not sure why LHW was on my mind.

The others being wladowns, tunney, herbert, and maybe Boof.
Valuev looked pretty sharp against Lyhakovich, was really impressed with his ever improving jab. And Ruiz bored McCline to death but won many rounds.

i sort of want to believe ruiz but he talked similarly before his mccline bout.
read most scribes thought it was a snooze fest.
i tell you right now i'm burnt on that lackey wlad still ruling and hope someone lights a fire under the improved valuev so after the ruiz he takes wlad to task.

imo a giant like him doesnt have to improve that much to beat these other clowns. i'd much rather have valuev be star of the hvwt circus!
