Chris Byrd: "Every heavyweight is afraid of Johnny Ruiz"

[julDilla]

the reason refs let it keep happening is cuz their on don kings payroll, don wouldnt be happy if hes paying the ref and the ref is doing stuff against his fighters

[Pno]

I'm not sure if it's happened or not before with Ruiz..
but sometimes when refs don't notice illegal things (they always should, so this is no excuse), the figther being hugged / held might need to flail his arms around or tug viciously to overstate the fact that his opponent is holding..

not that they deserve to have to do it, but I think it will help any opponent of Ruiz in any future fight.

The worst part is, Ruiz commits these fouls does not get penalized for them and then constantly bitches like a little ****ing ***** about the opposing boxers tactics. I am convinced that this guy has a vagina underneath that protective cup he wears.

Well said..

It's true that Ruiz uses semi-illegal tactics like hugging his oppenents until they are physically and mentally exhausted and then manages to sneak in some good combinations. But regardless of this, one of the so-called heavyweight champions should step up to the plate, rise to the occasion, and whatever other cliche you wanna use and knock him out. I'm sick of all the moaning and groaning about Ruiz, I mean the man is not invincible. I'm sure V.Klitshco wouldn't have any trouble knocking Ruiz out. Byrd needs to talk like a champion, say he'll knock him out and then do so!

Chris Byrd is so right, I don't think he should be afraid because of that, but there is no doubt that John Ruiz does what he wants inside the ring. That's what made the Ruiz-Golota fight so good, because they both went beyond the rules and it was fair because both fighters were getting cheap shots. John Ruiz is so horrible, I'm not going to even get into it, I think I expressed my hate of John Ruiz enough throughout the boards

You thought the fight was good? It was painful on the eyes. It could have been good but Ruiz continued his pussiness after the second round and the fight turned into a disaster.

I thought it was good everytime Golota landed a face shot on Ruiz's ugly face. I also thought it was good when The Garden was rocking and people were beating the hell out of each other in the stands. I also thought it was good untill round 10 was over, when the judges and DK screwed Golota....again. That's when the fight got bad for me, but other than that, I loved ever second of it

I was curious to ask whoever was there, because I was making plans on going to the garden that night but decided to stay home with friends and watch it instead. Who was brawling in the stands? Was it Puerto Ricans against Polish or just everyone brawling.

Byrd has the right to ***** about Ruiz. How can you not when you already know the guy is gonna make up his own rules and win. Ruiz hug his opponents more than he fights them. That's not right. And that's why nobody respects him. And he always brag how he doesn't get any respect.

But I do believe that Byrd is one the few guy that has what it take to beat Ruiz. Toney as well because there is no way he'd let Ruiz **** him. And of course V.Klit for his height and weight advantage. Toney-Ruiz? I tell ya that's gonna be classic. Just imagine what Toney would say before the fight.
