HBO TONEY VS RUIZ

bigben · 04-30-05, 10:42 AM

RUIZ 41-5 (28 KOS)
TONEY 68-4 (43 KOS)
********************
HERES MY OPINION IF TONEY CAN STAY AWAY FROM RUIZ THRU THIS
FITE HE WILL KNOCK RUIZ OUT TONEY HAS TO STOP OR PREVENT
RUIZ FOM GRABBING HIM AND HOLDING HIM ALL NITE RUIZ IS A MASTER
GRABBER IN THE TRADE :D

I think toney wins this fight, but not by KO. IMO toney doesn't have the punching power to knock out heavyweights, but he will have a speed adv and is much more crafty in the ring. Roy Jones made Ruiz look silly in the ring, and I expect the same kind of fight from Toney. Toney wins this in a lopsided decision. Only way Ruiz wins is if he catches Toney off guard w a hard shot.

Yeah I agree Toney should take out Ruiz tonight. I am actually looking forward to this fight to watch it. I havent watched a boxing match in some time now :D

MistaFlava · 04-30-05, 10:37 PM

I'm on Ruiz at +155 for tonight's fight guys. Ruiz is boring as hell and he's gonna stay away from Toney long enough to win a technical fight. Get ready to fall asleep during this one. The only thing that can save us from boredom will be an all out brawl between both corners.

Ruiz is not the better fighter but he is also hard to beat. Toney can only beat him by hurting him bad and that won't happen. Ruiz is nothing like Jirov and getting punches in on him is nearly impossible. When Toney gets pissed off, Ruiz is gonna counter-punch and hit Toney enough times to give him the win.

Good Luck guys!

maybe, but Ruiz hasn't been impressive in any of his last few fights...i just think Toney has too many tricks for Ruiz and will take note as to how Roy Jones Jr picked apart Ruiz at will

MistaFlava · 05-01-05, 04:45 AM

good call on the fight guys...Ruiz is donzo

naught33 · 05-01-05, 04:47 AM

yeah Ruiz is horrible, i have no idea what he was thinking, you'd think he would learn and avoid a right hand once in a while but he kept getting nailed...id like to see toney vs klitschko

MistaFlava · 05-01-05, 05:14 AM

RJ was saying that Kiltschko would get killed by Toney...hahaha, he's crazy but I would love to see it.

I'm still looking forward to Winky vs Tito and Gatti vs Mayweather....OH HELL YEAH!

Tommy · 05-01-05, 05:20 AM

Im defintely looking forward to Gatti & Mayweather :D Nice call on Toney whoever backed him! :wink:

MistaFlava · 05-01-05, 09:15 AM

and on that note, John Ruiz announced his retirement after the fight. Did he really have to waste our time knowing he was going to quit?

:evil:

bigben · 05-01-05, 10:55 AM

well this fite was boring Toney outclassed him and took him ruiz to school LOL

they sort of mixed it up way more than i expected knowing ruiz is a classic holder and grabber ruiz announced
his retirement well good for boxing

a dull fite as most predicted
i was looking for toney to take him out with the big right hand never happened.
:D

naught33 · 05-01-05, 05:11 PM

thank god ruiz retired, last thing we needed to see was another ruiz fight...they are so boring because he never does anything. Even against toney who basically stood in front of him all night Ruiz did very little, you would think he could have gotten in some solid shots, but he really didn't, he just looked disinterested out there, now we just need evander and tyson to leave boxing as well
