===Ruiz vs Jones Jr.===
{{Main article|John Ruiz vs. Roy Jones Jr.}}
On March 1, 2003, Ruiz was contracted to fight [[Roy Jones Jr.]], who at the time was ''The Ring'' light heavyweight champion. If Jones was to beat Ruiz in the fight, he would join [[Bob Fitzsimmons]], [[Michael Spinks]], and [[Michael Moorer]] as the only three fighters to win titles at light heavyweight and heavyweight as well as becoming the second fighter (Fitzsimmons being the first) to win titles at both middleweight and heavyweight. Ruiz, who said referee Jay Nady "wouldn't let me fight my fight", lost a unanimous decision to Jones and moved back into the WBA's contender pool.
