Arreola looked great his last time out, Ruiz looked horrible.
BUT
Unless Ruiz is fooling us again and is 285+, even the very best version of Arreola would be unlikely to see the final bell.

Ruiz by KO, round 8

he looked great? a bit hyperbolic there. first off he lost. second he was fighting a face first fighter with no defense. that is the best style for an old shot fighter to fight. think mosley-marg. oh mosley is back! p4p #3! derrrpppp and on the flip side ruiz looked bad because he faced someone moving and boxing. arreola was getting gift decisions against random journeymen who simply boxed him so i would expect ruiz to easily outbox him as well

He fought well against an undefeated Kownacki and actually set a record for punches thrown by a HW in a 12 round contest. He lost on the cards but was in better shape than I've ever seen him. As opposed to Ruiz who looked about as bad as a defending champ has ever looked.

Arreola was in great shape, "looked great" might have been a stretch.

after getting paid off to lose the rematch against the PED monster joshua I see Ruiz dropped a lot of weight and is working real hard for Chris?? he is supposed to be in great shape. he is a humble likable guy

hearn kidnapped ruiz's brother before the rematch and forced him to lose. shady stuff but typical boxing

Did Hearn also force Ruiz to not train and come in heavy?

So basically Hearn paid Andy Ruiz to not train and show up overweight? Why go a full 12 rounds then? Wouldn’t it be easier to just take a dive?

how would Ruiz get knocked out by a guy running away from him?

My point is that there are easier ways to throw a fight, not that I think Ruiz did that but for the sake of argument. Also Andy didn’t get that cut on his eye from AJ running.
