    Fighters who dont get the credit or respect they have Earned

    Am gonna start with former 2 time Heavyweight champion john ruiz, half of the posters on here give the guy so much **** its unreal! when half of them have never even been in a gym let alone laced on a pair of gloves, he has done things that only some of the people on here can dream about.
    Also Julio ceasar chavez jr, Wladmir Klitchko and Paulie Malignaggi also get way to much disrepect of arm chair supportes.

          Generally European, Asian and British fighters get less respect than they deserve.

          Joe Calzaghe, the Klitschkos (rated 47 & 48 by Ring Magazine), Chris John, Mikkel Kessler, etc.

          When some American fans and writers have never heard of a fighter's opponents, they automatically assume he fought bums.
