Was John Ruiz "shot" against Haye?

[Boxing Scene]

I'd like to hear everyone's opinions, was Ruiz shot? He sure looked like he was well past it to me. I had given him a chance at winning but he looked like complete **** in that fight and still managed to connect and almost knocked Haye down a couple of times.

i don't think you could ever call a guy like him shot. he's always been that sorta fighter for a while (at least till tua ran em over)

[El Protagonista]

He never had much of a prime tbh but yes, he's "shot"

I think it's easy to see he was shot. He hasn't performed that poorly in a while, and at the same time gotten a few punches in.

Good to see the Haye fans being realistic when they vote. I guess Ruiz is still in his prime.

Of course you don't you're a Haye hugger. No way Ruiz was shot. You say ******ed things all the time so I expected it.

**** no.

Ive ben watching him since I was a kid, he came into that fight with a new style and gave it his best. I don't think he held once the first five or so rounds. Haye was not at all ready for Ruiz to be as though as he was.

Sad to see him lose given how much work he's put in the past few years revamping his style, I hope he doesn't retire yet.

yes he was shot......

the funny thing is during the fight... if you guys watched closley.. ruiz hit haye with a shot that pushed haye back against the ropes... if you watch carefully if there was no ropes he would of got knocked down.

Wlad has more power than ruiz.....

For all the guys that say he's shot, can you please tell me what has declined? He looked like the same John Ruiz that fought Roy Jones to me.
