Ruiz - Toney Predictions

[Kornhusker]

Ruiz by ugly decision. A counterpuncher against a guy that barely throws a punch.

[warped]

Toney will put lots of pressure on Ruiz and get fed up with his huggy bear tactics. Likely a bit of wrestling and lots of pleading glances at the ref from Ruiz culminating in a late fight stoppage.

[spinksjinx]

Toney isnt quick enough on his feet to keep Ruiz away, Fast hands? Maybe but Toney doesnt have a tremendous reach either to keep Ruiz off. Ruiz my Unanimous Decision in another ugly fight.

The only guys to beat Ruiz are fighters who are quick on their feet and fight on the outside (jones) and possess a peek a boo style, or one who can hit really hard.

Toney is neither.

[Kid Achilles]

I think Ruiz will fare better than many think. First of all, Toney is not a very mobile fighter like RJJ was, and his handspeed is nowhere near as impressive. Toney had a great chin at middle and cruiserweight, but Ruiz is a heavyweight and he has a decent punch when he wants to use it. I think Ruiz's awkward punch and grab style will get to Toney like it has the majority of his previous opponents. Let's not forget the huge disparity in strength. If Ruiz is strong enough to tie up Golota, who is a powerhouse, what chance does a short lardbucket like Toney have of holding his own in the clinches?

It's going to take a taller, much stronger man like Vitali to take Ruiz out of the picture. Toney lacks the size, the strength, and the punch.

[oldgringo]

Toney by comfortable decision.

[mic573]

I'm not sold on Toney at heavyweight like most people are so I'll say Ruiz by boring decision. Something about Ruiz and his clinching style gets the best of his opponents.

Ruiz by UD

TONEY IS TAILOR MADE FOR RUIZ'S STYLE.

Is this fight official yet. I hear Byrd is duking out of the WK fight to persue a fight w/Toney!

[Ivansmamma]

Toney won't beat Ruiz, Ruiz will punch and hug him for tweelve rounds. Ruiz wins by UD.
