find them I'll post where Jerry was rated. |

RUIZ: I wonder what round Ruiz is going to clutch his groin, fall down, and
complain of a low punch. I think doing that is an official part of his
training.|

Ruiz is an interesting match up. A good big man verses a great smaller man. I
am not sure who will win. It is kind of a test to see if some of the smaller
great heavyweights of the past could have handled a big heavyweight from today.
Jones should come in at about 185 pounds and he is strong for his size, but can
he hurt the 235 pound Ruiz? Another question, is Jones going to be too fast for
Ruiz? Will Ruiz be able to land effectively? Like I said, I just don't know who
is going to win this one. The bigger question is if the fight will come off at
all. I have my doubts about this. |

making a big mistake in fighting Ruiz. If it comes off, it could be
interesting.|

for Jerry that I could find. The Ring mag’s I have (10 in all) are
between Feb 74’ and July 76. Jerry is not rated any of in them. I
thought I had more from the late 60’s and early 70’s but I
can’t find them. They were more than likely lost in one of my many moves
over the years. I thought it was interesting that Oscar Bonavena was rated in
the top ten International Boxing: Jan 72 Jerry rated 4th Ali 1, Foreman
2, Bonavena 3. Mar 72 Jerry rated 3rd Ali
1, Foreman 2. Feb 74 Jerry 4th Frazier 1,
Ali 2, Norton 3. June 75 Jerry 7th Foreman
1, Frazier 2, Lyle 3, Norton 4, Bugner 5, Bonavena 6.
Dec 76 Jerry rated 7th, Norton 1, Foreman 2, Bobick 3, Holmes 4, Young 5, Lyle
6.World Boxing: June 72 Jerry rated 3rd after Ali 1and Foreman 2.
March 75 Jerry rated 3rd Foreman 1, Frazier 2. May
75 Jerry rated 3rd after Foreman 1, and Frazier 2.
July 75 Jerry rated 4th Norton moves to 3rd behind Foreman and Frazier.Sorry
about the skewed sentances, I pasted this from Word. Tuna, i've thought this
matchup before and my first reaction is that Jerry would kill him. But Ingo did
knock Patterson out and down, what 10-11 times in 3 fights. And KO'ing Machen
in 1 round was quite a feat. Liston and Williams couldn't knock him down! I
don't know the curcumstances surrounding that fight, was Machen in shape? How
cold was it in Stockholm that night, the fight was outside. Anyway, Johannson
had one hell of a right hand. He might have dropped Jerry a couple of times.
Altough Jerry could have blasted him like he did Earnie Shavers. I do think
Jerry would have KO'ed Ingo but there might be some interesting rounds of boxing
before the end. Good matchup!|

really fast because I keep getting knocked off AOL. Here's the rest of my
thought about Oscar. I don't find it so interesting that Bonavena was rated,
