Why would anybody who enjoys boxing want to see that fight ?
The only reason I'd watch it, is because Byrd would smack Ruiz around. Ruiz can't handle the little guys, that's been proven.
With Byrd's left-handed stance, Johnny would never get to unleash his deadliest weapon, the ol' step n' grab.
Byrd would just slide to his right when Ruiz tries it.....easy fight for Byrd.
I think it's apparent.....John Ruiz will never be out of the spotlight....
He's a ****in' ****roach.
You all like ****roaches ? Do you all "respect" ****roaches because they have staying power? When you see a ****roach in your kitchen, do you accept it, because "Hey, the roach is doing what he has to do." ???
Think about that.
Because it moves closer to unification, who wants 4 heavyweight champions.
Undeserving fighters getting title shots for no apparent reason. I hope he knocks Byrd out just to make the division that much weaker. Should have thrown Ruiz in with Byrd.
you make an interesting point, for as long as ruiz and byrd have had their titles, why have they not unified?? its a fight king could have made easy... why is the burden of unifying always on VK?
I totally agree with you guys that this is a weak fight card. You know Ruiz what have jumped at the opportunity to fight Byrd, but Byrd(and King)wanted the safer fight.I could see giving an unknown a title shot if for one; the belts were unified and two, if the champion was fighting 4-6 times a year. If you guys remember Muhammad Ali had a "bum of the month" club which consisted of guys like Wepner,Bugner,Pierre-Coopman,etc. but he only fought these guys after fighting top contenders like Frasier,Foreman,Norton,Lyle.
