    Just thinking of paying for a Ruiz makes me *CRINGE*

    Unfortunately I have to if I want to see my favorite HW fight *argh*

      Hmmm, it would be a good fight but i think golota would have more too lose than too gain from it.

      If he wins it wont rank him much higher and if he gets caught and ko`ed. Its probably over

        You are very right about that, and Jinx, the only way you could see me paying for a Ruiz fight is if Golota is knocking him out, or Tua is knocking the taste out of his mouth

          He is atlest both longer and more skilled than brewster.
          When they're fighting you dont see a crazy height disparity. 6.2 is pretty tall when you're 5.5.

          As for Toney, I think Toney laughs at Tua until the bell rings, then he clown him.

          That would still make one hell of a fight! (for 25 seconds at least)
          this has always been a great idea. If this fight is made, there needs to be one condition. LOSER RETIRES.

            Tua would crush any of these chumps masquerading as champs today, including Vitali. This is assuming he really knuckles down to some hard training and gets serious.

              Tua would beat Ruiz withouta doubt. He may lose his title in the first defense, but regardless...

                This is as delusional as a Tyson comment.
                Byrd got the best of him in '01. I dont see how so much inactivity would help him in a rematch.
                He last impressive W came against Fres in early '02. Its '05 now and he's fought 3 times since going 2-0-1. he did look real impressive against Moorer. haha.

                  The right order on taking out the current champs would be to 1st fight against Ruiz. It will enable Tua to get a belt and a much needed confidence boost going into his next fight against Brewster. After taking out Brewster, Tua's mission gets a little more complicated. Byrd will have the psychological advantage going into the fight due to winning the 1st match, but I see Tua putting the pressure on Byrd (who has slowed down quite a bit since the last time they fought) forcing him into a corner and eventually Ko'ing him around round 8 or 9.

                  Assuming everything has worked out like clock work, It will then be time for Tua to take on his his toughest opponent....Klitschko. The only way I see Tua beating Klitchko is if he's learned from his mistakes, when he fought against Lewis. Klit will more than likely use the same strategy Lewis used to defeat Tua. He will have to be on Klit like white on rice, sustaining a high work-rate throughout the entire fight. IF he can do this, then it's possible that he beats Klit....either that OR he gets lucky and lands his left hook on Klit's temple forcing a stoppage......possible but highly improbable.
