Oh man. Look guy, in general, fans and media types look at the sport differently. Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to accuse anyone of wrongdoing, but they view Ruiz winning as a good thing. Stability at the top is what makes a class worth watching. As long as Ruiz keep winning, the top is stable. It's good for the sport. Mebbe not in the numbers department, but in the long run. Eventually someone will come along, and Ruiz will have held the title for two or three years, and if the newcomer beats him he'll have a good claim to being the man. If Golota had won, which would have been more fair in my opinion, he probably would have lost the title in his next fight. That means the title changes hands twice in as many fights and equals instability. That's why the average fan out there is yelling robbery, and the average sports writer is breathing a sigh of a relief and probably having a drink to keep the disgust down.
Seems like Ruiz UD 12 Golota's only "highly controversial" on BoxingScene.com...

It's funny how I can make a post three and four times larger than the average BoxingScene post, post back-up information explaining my reasoning for the rankings, mention two dozen heavyweights and explain my reason for ranking/omitting, but since my choice for #1 doesn't match yours, it makes me a fan? of the people I ranked ahead of your guy.Originally posted by NeuraxisSo I'll take it that that means that you are a Ruiz fan. You should have just admit it back during this post.

You seem to think it's impossible to have an opinion that's different than that of your own without having some kind of bias. Are you related to pbds?Comment
