Alright, ya got me there. He got his arse handed to him in that one. I am not a Ruiz fan. Is there such a person? I just think his grab-n-grope style is a very effective defense that befuddles people who seem much better than Ruiz. He is definitely not the best defensive fighter, but I think he ranks towards the top for his ugly, ugly style.

Before the Zab-Spinks fights i would have said that Spinks would have to be up there to.

Maybe his close friends and immediate family, hehe.



edited: but i know what you are saying, his style avoids alot of big shots, he smothers them, boring for a regular person to watch, but believe it or not I get a kick out of watching ruiz fights..i laugh most of the time though

Bernard Hopkins...James Toney...Floyd Mayweather.
