It was great, but it falsely gave him the idea that he was at that level. He's looked pretty bad at world level since the first AJ fight. The second AJ fight he didn't even bother to show up.

Nothing compares to the cinderella story of Isidro Garcia. He was supposedly just a spectator in a championship fight between then WBO champion Jose "Carita" Lopez against the challenger Alejandro Montiel until he suddenly withdrew from the fight leaving the champion without an oppponent. Isidro Garcia who was eating hotdogs in the audience agreed to step-up and fight for the championship using borrowed equipment. He ended up winning the WBO belt.

I know his manager started the whole hotdog thing but it’s not true. It’s actually impossible to be true given the time he pulled out. Unless the suggestion is on 4 hours he took it THEN went to his seat to watch his own undercard and had a hot dog then went and got prepared haha. It’s amazing enough as is we don’t need a hotdog story to sweeten it haha he likely got inthe story from a slightly similar one nearly a decade prior. This was Tomashek’s ridiculous title bout with Tommy The Duke in the early 90s. I’ve researched that fight for ages and it’s clear doughboy was the back up fighter - super talented journeymen and the slick option when you needed to spar of the big boys on the club scene who wasn’t actually expecting to be put in especially as they got within one hour that’s impossibly rare so like any good country boy he slammed some brewskies and got ready to watch his favorite prize fighter with the boys. Needless to say He was pissed drunk and literally was seen on camera with hotdogs (multiple) literally minutes before the fight when Morrison called him up for his Foreman tuneup he couldn’t avoid haha truly one for the ages. Though unlike chino, tommy could have literally killed his late notice replacement if he wanted. Chino however could flat out crack. Not in any way taking away from him I’m saying he was genuinely very talented and on weight. Tomashek on the other hand… I mean … probably the nicest heavyweight in history atleast that’s for sure I’ll leave it at that 😂

Ruiz's personality shows there is a HUGE difference between respect and fear. Sometimes men, and people in general confuse the two. Just like there's a difference between maturity and cowardice. This is especially applicable as a warrior is older, and content in his manhood and chooses to live another day to protect and provide for his legacy...it's better to be a warrior in the garden, than be a gardener in a war.

One of the most impressive for me although he didn't win is Qawi stepping in on two weeks notice to fight George Foreman, he wasn't even in heavyweight so had to put on 32lbs in two weeks train to fight Foreman and he does amazingly well for two weeks. You can see his gas tank go and that's what loses him the fight.

I miss HBO Boxing.

There was a fight around the same year as the Ruiz fight here between a short blabby Mexican and a tall and really buff black guy. The Mexican won. He was so much shorter that he could mostly do uppercuts. But he won. Was amazing. If anyone might be able to give me the fighter’s names I’d really appreciate it. My friend was going to save it for me and accidentally deleted it. Thanks !

That Canelo v Ortiz fight would have been a banger while it lasted!!! Ortiz was always a little TOO willing to stand in the phone booth and trade but it made for some exciting fights to watch

What are the odds, Pacquiao's last minute opponent wasn't only on the same card (co-main) but he lost his opponent under the same circumstances of an eye injury.
