Jones or Ruiz?

[Bigsatan13]

I can usually pick them. I think I may go with Jones. What do you think?

 

[KAYNE]

I THINK JONES SHOULD STAY IN THE WEIGHT CLASSES HE HAS BEEN IN. GOING UP TO THE HEAVIES IS A BIG JUMP FOR HIM. IMO HE DOESNT HAVE THE POWER THOSE GUYS HAVE AND HE HAS NVR BEEN HIT LIKE THEY CAN HIT HIM EITHER.

To bad ruiz will never hit him =P. Have you ever seen ruiz fight?? It is nothing impressive let me tell you that much right now. He fought a washed up holyfield lost 1 fight and I thought he lost the last fight, I think ruiz is just another paper champion. Jones however is the greatest pound for pound fighter since Sugar Ray Robinson, he will beat ruiz's ass. I look for the fight to go to a decision with jones outboxing, outmoving, and basically making ruiz look like a slow lumbering jackass. Jones 12 round decision.

EVEN THOUGH I AGREE WITH YOU, I WAS SPEAKING OF THE HEAVYWEIGHT CLASS IN GENERAL. NOT ABOUT RUIZ IN PARTICULAR. NO DOUBT JONES CAN BEAT SOME OF THE GUYS IN H.W. CLASS. HOWEVER, THAT IS THE LOWER END CONTENDERS LIKE RUIZ. I LIKE JONES, I HOPE HE DOES WIN.

I agree with Kayne. I hope he knows what he is getting into.


It seems like at that weight it wont take much to frustrate him.


If he can box like he does in the lower classes at that weight he is on track to go down as one of the greatest of all time.

When is the fight?

Here's another question: I just looked at a boxing betting odds sight and didn't understand the odds sheet.
It said Jones -220
Ruiz +170

Can anyone explain this?

It means jones is the favorite to win the fight. You would have to bet 220dollars on jones to win 100 dollars back and bet 100 dollars on ruiz to win 170 back. I am pretty sure that is how it works out.

As much as I dislike Ruiz, I expect he'll be able to get Jones pushed against the ropes on enough occasions to hurt him. He'll lean on Jones, shove him around & finally KO Jones in a typically ugly Ruiz 'fight'. I figured Johnson would have beaten Ruiz, but did poorly before being DQ'd. That's the fight that should be set up for Tyson (if he fights again) Tyson vs. Ruiz. I think Mike could at least beat Ruiz.

i'm gonna say jones. as long as he can keep it to a boxing match and not a hugging contest it should be a cakewalk. the man is inhumanly fast with uncanny instincts.

I believe that Jones is as smart a fighter I've seen since Ali... He will fight to his strengths, which will utilize the whole ring, his quickness, the old "Float like a Butterfly, Sting like a Bee"..

But Who knows? It will be interesting to see. I will look forward to this more than any fight in a long time...
