Ruiz' claim to fame is that he was the first Hispanic heavyweight titleholder, and I am sorry but to be known primarily for what race you are does not really suggest that there is much else you have that is above average!

And I gotta agree.
It's guys like him who turned myself, and many others, off of the HW division completely.
Can't think of one positive thing he brings to the sport.
