i almost talked myself outta the p*ssy badmouthing john ruiz in front of a chick i was talking to years ago..not knowing he was a friend of the family :dead:

but fukk john ruiz :hhh:...he lost his belts to 2 former middleweight champions

i hated the holyfield-ruiz trilogy..it hurt my heart watching that shyt

Ruiz was not a bad fighter. the stigma came from the Tua blowout.

Benn though took plenty of damage from G man...he was a mess after that fight....he didnt shake off all that punishment

I was a McClellan fan. this guy was going to be a star. I watched that fight live and it was til this day the most gutwrenching, heartbreaking, foul-filled, rigged fight I ever seen. That ref was on some bullshyt. I did watch the documentary and it was always believed that Benn was up to something nefarious. That being said, G-Man was had some pre-existing stuff going on. It may have caught up to him later if not this fight.

I know Shakur wants to chase the Ryan Garcia fight for some reason, but there are so many fights he can make at 135 and 140

because Ryan has to be the biggest payday out there and definitely compared to risk/reward. what is a bigger fight that is not as tough?

I like Zepeda's chances against Roach. Roach style matches well with Tank but he can get outworked. Most of these guys pissing away their opportunities looking for cherry-picks. All these guys are talk. Looks like Mason is the future of 135.
