Comments Thread For: John "The Quiet Man" Ruiz Announces His Retirement

[daggum]

did i read something about him possibly getting into the hall of fame? if that's true might as well burn it down now.

Don't like Ruiz, but his resume is very respectable. Hope he stays out for good.

[ChopperRead]

although he should have retired awhile ago.. i wish him all the best for the next chapter of hes life. he had a steady career and seems like a real genuine guy.

Ruiz fought Haye straight on with no clinching or hugging, and should have been credited with a knockdown against him. He went out like a man. Take care, Quiet Man.

Jermain Taylor is another John Ruiz! He should not come back at all!! Let's clean up Boxing and get rid of the sorry ones Please!!!!!!!!!

Respect to honest John Ruiz and his achievements. A real tough guy!

[robyonone]

A real tough guy Yes! But Cried about everything to try to keep his Belt. Evander Holyfield was hitting me behind my head, Roy Jones Jr. keep running, James Toney was on something, Nikolai Valuev had me in a Headlock, Why won't real Champions fight me, Blah, Blah, Blah! We don't need that in Boxing at all! Just like Jermain Taylor. He shouldn't have been a Champion but when it goes to the Judges its up to faith the they see what you see. Sometimes they do. Sometimes don't. John Ruiz and Jermain Taylor was the sometime they didn't see. And it's sad for Boxing and The Fans
