grandmother told in two – this is something very pro John Ruiz. Puerto Rican, seems to be well versed in jurisprudence, and by the eloquence of his teachers is comparable to the capital's universities. And what he does with such a wealth of knowledge and skills in the ring – a mystery. All this is painfully reminiscent of the quiet agony of selfish madman.

Last Wednesday, former two-time world champion John Ruiz, WBA made a very trivial thing. Taking as an ally of his attorney, Tony Cardinale, and coach Manny Siaka, Puerto Rico has written an open letter addressed to the World Boxing Association. It “Quiet” does somehow immodest asked the organization to cancel the outcome of the fight for the title of interim champion, WBA heavyweight against Russian Nikolay Valuev. That fight, I will remind, Ruiz lost on points by unanimous decision. But it is on them, the judges of incompetence, bias and corruption in Puerto Rico and builds his accusation.

First, the team allegedly Ruiz, during the fight seconds Russians had the opportunity to get acquainted with the judges' notes. Secondly, one of the referees the fight – Japanese Takeshi Shimakava – incorrectly billed, and his colleague Antonio Requena in two rounds recorded equality, contrary to instructions WBA. In addition, the Puerto Rican team believes that in the second round match referee did not record a knockdown of the Russian boxer.

Sam Ruiz, commenting on the situation for Boxingscene.com, puts an unusually brief. According to him, “WBA must as soon as possible to deal with this issue. The result of the fight should be canceled and re-assigned to fight”.

In truth, “Tikhon” in the direction of the judges are not so unfounded. Flaws in the work that Shimakavy that Requena actually attended. Those children's mistakes that they made, by and large, are not acceptable for a fight of this level. I think they still backfire – after all it is not so much about their qualifications (in this issue, many have already made proper conclusions), but about the image of WBA.

Much less logic in the words of the Puerto Rican relatively knockdown, which allegedly sent Ruiz Valuev. In the second round of combat, “Quiet” is really a very decent conducted a series of strikes that led Nicholas slightly falter. But apparently, he is new to the boxing terminology. That's what the definition of the word “knockdown” gives “The Encyclopedia of Boxing”:

Knockdown – finding a boxer in this state (with or without a drop of falling), in which he, in the opinion of the referee is unable to continue the fight.

Valuev was unable to continue the fight? It's funny. Just after the third round, Nicholas stepped up and spent probably the most decent in terms of box shown, the segment of the meeting.

In this regard, it is understandable as an emotional statement the Managing Director of the company promoter Sauerland Events, which represents Valuev, Chris Mayer on John Ruiz prosecution team:

“That's ridiculous. Their charges – an insult to the WBA and officials of the organization. Everybody saw that Nikolai won a clear victory. Even in his wildest dreams could not beat Ruiz Valuev. The TV picture – a clear confirmation. After 24 rounds, that these guys had in the ring, is obvious: even putting on handcuffs Valuev, Ruiz is not able to overcome it. Kolya there is no reason to fear. But the madness of losing Ruiz – a real shame, “- said Mayer in an interview with Fightnews.com.

Today “revenge-seeking war,” was continued. Added more fuel to the fire attorney Tony Cardinale, Ruiz, who said that the team Puerto Rican boxer will not abandon the intention to review the result of the fight:

“We had a good laugh, reading a statement Sauerland Events. But it's much more concerned about what the outcome of this confrontation. We want a full review, neotmontirovanuyu version of the fight in order to strengthen our position, outlined in a letter to the WBA”, – quoted Cardinale Fightnews.com.

What

want to see video on neotmontirovannoy representatives of Ruiz? How to respond to the last words of Cardinal headquarters Sauerland Events? And the best part: when the weighty words to say WBA? Officials organizations continue to remain silent. Time is running out and the situation is a little out of control, turning into a farce. So it's really a shame that detractors World Boxing Association.

These questions, which, hopefully, we will soon be answered. How competent is unknown, and yet …

Let me digress. I remember in my time, Pasternak wrote that “there is nothing worse than a life that is lived out in the form of a question,” when a search is the essence of being prevails over practical self-realization. That is John Ruiz, he is constantly trying to prove his case by asking – first of all to itself – questions that at times there is absolutely no logic. It is strange that a Puerto Rican does not try to understand how fundamental, and in such a simple question: what is man?!

And here we face a paradox: the essence of John Ruiz, can be expanded through the above indicated problem.

Judge for yourself: if you treat a person beyond the geographical plane, and push off only on the time, then each of us is nothing but a memory of history, identity, separate and unique. Here, the main man of awareness of their role in the historical process. This – a measure of his man, and life.

So, John Ruiz, clearly does not understand their role, or realizing, not trying to take it. We, as outsiders, are perfectly visible, and draw their own conclusions, set your rating. And it is not so much a subjective opinion as to the adequacy of what has been said and shown.

's My conclusion. And my assessment. If you say that John Ruiz is a bad egg – I do not agree for one simple reason: I'm not familiar with it. Personally. But the fact that he was not an outstanding boxer – is obvious: it fights we've seen time and again. Be Quiet smarter, he would match his nickname. And it would go to him only benefit. Anger and rejection of him would be less clear. Actually, John, it's time to tie to boxing, saying he ADIOS.
