You know what good for him.I know that watching Ruiz fight sometimes is like waking up in the middle of the night with those painfull calf cramps that make you wince but Plain and simple...Hes done his time and keeps plugging ahead so lets see what happens.Hell,He deserves a thumbs up for just getting rid of the F!!!!!! azzclown fatmouth Norm stone who I think was nothing more than a detraction and camera whore.
I am not trying to rah-rah for Ruiz but Ive watched him for a long time and he was not always this Mauling-clinching misfit that alot of people see.He had two crap decisions Early,1 at cruiserweight vs.champ in the making Sergei Kobozev(R.I.P) that was really tight and a hold up decsicion vs.Emanuel stewarts Totem pole Golem Donnell Nicholson.I think after Tua pole-axed him he changed up and began that roughhouse stuff.Its ugly but it Works for him .He has always fought internationally as well and took on all comers.....but man Its not pretty at times.Hes 35 and might have a tough time getting big fights ,you might say because of his antics and rep.as clincher but what some might mean is its because he has a solid chin,a potent right,and guile.

But No ,I'm not a fan....maybe us Americans are just SO DESPERATE LOL,sad really
