Norman Stone, manager for the current and two-time World Boxing Association Heavyweight Champion John Ruiz, put it all in proper perspective; "This will be a battle, but not a war - the war is in IRAQ" stated one of boxing's straightest shooters, who added "God bless our troops over there. They are the real heroes, guys like Pat Tillman-who gave up millions of dollars to fight and die for his country. That's a hero!"
In reality John "The Quietman" Ruiz has been battling for quite some time now. His battle, which is Stone's battle as well (like any good manager), is not with Andrew Golota, or any other heavyweight fighter; it's with the media, the so-called boxing "experts" and with the boxing public. Ruiz, and Stone, are battling for RESPECT. [details]
