Quote:
After the decision was announced, an angry Ruiz, feeling wronged, stormed out of the ring without giving any interviews. In the meantime, his manager, Norman Stone, snatched the WBA belt from Valuev, and then walked around the ring, with the belt raised overhead, shouting at the German crowd. It looked bad, a kind of an in your face attitude, almost as if he were shaming the judges for their scores. However, after a moment, the shock wore off and one of Valuev’s cornerman rushed in and began to wrestle with Stone, before tagging with him with a overhand right that knocked Stone back against the ropes. At that point, Security rushed in and restrained Stone, and took the belt forcefully from his desperate, clutching grip. It was as if a toy was being taken from an angry, grieving child. The entire episode was like comedy at the finest. No, I'm not kidding you. This really happened, and sadly, it made the whole fight seeming boring in comparison. Stone was then escorted out of the ring by Security for his own protection, not that he really needed it.
