Will another Andy Ruiz Jr. win inspire more fat Yanks to turn Pro?

For many years we've heard the saying, "Most great American Heavyweights are playing Baseball, Basketball or Football!" And the majority of Americans are obese and out of shape. This must dissuade a lot of them from getting involved in Boxing, and having to lose weight and get in shape. It has long been thought that Boxers have to be in great physical shape, first and foremost. But... could Ruiz's success usher in a new era in USA Boxing? Could we see yet more successful fat Yanks in the Heavyweight division? :boxing: The real question is...... Will another Ruiz win inspire more Limeys to give up their dreams of becoming pro fighters when average @ss taco truck drivers from the USA can whip their best? Bait taken and sh@t out

You guys always calls us fat Yanks when you are just as fat as we are. I am not fat but Hatton and Fury are fatsos.

Name one great heavyweight who would have made a good pro ball player or one pro ball player that became a heavyweight champ. There are none. Boxing is a very different sport with different skills required.

It's one thing to be fat, another thing to be skilled... Ruiz is both... No everyone can say that ... :)

Hi bro, try to keep this thread positive please, thanks. No space for negativity in here! :fing02: Tyson Fury has held all belts and never lost a fight. He also clowned the WBC champion for 10 out of 12 rounds. He is the star of the Heavyweight division, but let's not turn this into a nationalistic debate. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EE-2Y1wX4AYwv-q.jpg How do you say "no space for negativity" when you're specifically calling Americans "fat yanks"? But who in America is a "fat yank"? The champion who beat Joshua is Mexican

Looks like a child's printing. A true fighting man

I thought Ruiz was mexican.

I guess a better question will be, how long until there is a British HW champion again? Hi bro, try to keep this thread positive please, thanks.

I'm sure we will if there's a Brit champion. Paper chin and no heart and only need a month notice. Who wouldn't take that easy payday?
