    FAO Puerto Ricans

    so.................

    about this John Ruiz fella, you know him though you pretend not to.

    He is the 1st Latino HW champion ever EVER! and he is from PR.

    Now should the unlikely event occur where he beats Haye.......can he then come back to the island?

    If he beats Haye can he be one of you again and will you embrace him as not just your brother(since he likes to hug) but one of your representatives of the sport?

    No, he has an awful hit and hold style and thus was cast out long ago

          His parents are Puerto Rican. And TBH, I don't think that anyone besides boxing fans/sports press will even notice if he enters Puerto Rico. His style isn't "Latino", he doesn't enter "warrior mode" like Trinidad or Cotto, so his fanbase is probably not the largest.

            Turns out your right, I could swear I remember him being announced once as originally from Caguas........so he has to be from the island to represent?

            What if he fought Wlad, somehow clipped him on his not so iron chin puts him down and then he is the real HW champion?

              No, but I was just pointing out he's not from the Island.

                    Wait till he starts winning. Watch. He will do the same with Cintron if he knocks Williams the fuck out.
