A lot of people have said that haye-chisora will look like haye-ruiz while the other side say that chisora is a lot better than ruiz.
The way I see it is that ruiz is better technically and throws straighter shots behind a half decent jab but chisora is stronger and has a better engine. I don't think there is too much between them in terms of toughness and chin. Chisora may recover a bit quicker because of his youth and fitness but he can be hurt. If they squared off I could see Chisora taking a close decision in a ugly fight.

Ruiz points.

I'd say Ruiz is the better fighter, by a fair bit as well

 

[Libertarian]

I'd say Ruiz would be the more threatening offensively, he actually knew how to throw a jab for starters.

Defensively.... Del is probably better at slipping shots but is still a fat knacker who ought to be in the 220's.

You'd probably pick pick Ruiz to win a close decision, he'd likely fancy a come forward opponent who is the same size, as opposed to the likes of Haye who fight largely off the back foot or SNV, who possessed a huge height and reach advantage that he wasn't really equipped to deal with once he became more flat footed.

Ruiz by far, even at that stage in his career he was a much better fighter than Delboy.

Im not sure that version of Ruiz beats Helenius

 

[Miguel2010]

Del is shit

I aren't... but I think he'd fancy his chances against Del personally.

Yes he would. Helenius is shit, Chisora is shit.

People don't give Haye enough credit for Ruiz clearly not a prime Ruiz or even a top fighter but he was a decent name certainly. He actually made Ruiz into an exciting fighter for one night.

Totally agree, other than seeing him get sparked by Tua it's the only Ruiz fight I have managed to watch twice without losing the will to live.

As for the original question, I would pick that version of Ruiz to beat Chisora as well.

 

[adamcanavan]

the ruiz haye fought, chis would win

Chisora is ridiculously overrated.

He is feather fisted, Ruiz would have no respect for his shots at all and would bully him.

 

[Vano-irons]

Yes he would. Helenius is shit, Chisora is shit.

Helenius isn't shit. He was a top 5 heavyweight having knocked out a couple of former world champions, and everyone picked him to knock Chisora out. Chisora just bullied him on the inside. While I'd expect Ruiz to come in with a similar game plan and lay on the Finn's chest, I don't no if at that stage Ruiz had the speed or the movement to get inside the jab and straight right.

I'm also not sure that that version of Ruiz could survive the punch that del did in the 1st or 2nd round (the one that sent him back on the ropes)

 

[Vano-irons]

Plus, isn't Ruiz considered one of the worst HW champions in history?

Which he would've done had he not broken his hand :yep

Briggs, Liakhorvich*, Rahman, Ibragimov, Seldon - all worse than Ruiz IMO. Unless he's the worst champion in terms of style, then yeah

 

[BoxingAnalyst]

50/50 fight IMO, Ruiz experience might give him the edge.

Briggs and Rahman were far better IMO, at least Rahman knocked Lewis out, and Briggs had some half decent wins, but only won the WBO.

I actually think Jess Willard was much worse than Ruiz, but he will still go down as a crap champion who was beaten by possibly the greatest Super Middleweight ever

 

[Lilo]

Jess Willard worse than Ruiz, Seldon, Ibragimov, Liakhorvich... :huh
