John Ruiz was underrated. Obviously he's not going to go down as one of the best HWs of all time, but I don't think he was nearly as bad as most people think he was.
He had an ugly/boring style, but he could get the job done for the most part.

Re: John Ruiz's FINEST HOUR!!
To be fair, he got absolutely ROBBED vs Valuev, and lost to a roided-up drug cheat Toney.
David Haye murdered him, but he was nearly 40 and at the end of his career.

Re: John Ruiz's FINEST HOUR!!
Ruiz had exceptional movement for a HW- aside from the time he got caught cold by David Tua. But, after the Tua fight, he kept on moving with brilliance- the better movement guys in the business.
There, I said something nice...
