Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz Survives Early Scare, Outboxes Chris Arreola For Decision Win

[champion4ever]

Nah, if he fights Wilder then he gets decapitated; Especially if Ruiz squares up because he doesn't like to move his head which will make him an easy target for Wilder's big right hand. The same right hand that dropped him against Arreola tonight.

I've always thought Ruiz would be in danger Vs Wilder due to his lack of head and foot work... That said I Wilder needs mid/ long range and Ruiz could control that with his hand speed and combos.

Until we see Wilder back after his mental breakdown post-Fury 2, I don't think anyone can say for sure what he's capable of... Jeff Lacy was Tyson II until he met Calzaghe, then he turned into Oliver McCall II over night!

Agreed on Chisora Vs Arreola, just not sure there's an audience for it to make sense either side of the pond, that's the definition of a "trade fight"...

The same right hand that dropped him against Arreola tonight. In addition, Wilder is younger and a lot fresher than the shopworn Cris Arreola who he has already beaten.

Quit you're whining, he looked unimpressive against an aging contender, so did Parker.
The undercards where more interesting.

Now go eat a snickers, you get cranky when you're hungry.

Derek Chisora is a better fighter than Arreola.

Maybe even a peak Chisora could beat Andy Ruiz Junior 'Ruiz would be right there for 12 rounds straight'.

I did not even watch the fight but? I kept on telling people, some fighters are better off with blubber 'Because that is who they have been all their careers'.

Dramatic weight loss and regime changes, can affect their performance 'Because their bodies find it difficult to physiologically acclimatize'

If Andy Ruiz Junior faces Joshua again,and he comes in at 250 + pounds he will get sparked out, if he comes in at 240 pounds? He will be blasted out within 5 rounds etc'.

Tyson Fury would also completely put a Joe Calzaghe type Jeff Lacy beat down on Ruiz Junior 'In this current form'.

Dillian Whyte should be calling for this fight.

Anyone saw the fight in the stands?

Yeah. They were pretty good too.
They got a good clip of them at finoboxing on yt.
Nine times outta ten you're gonna get fights in the stands at that venue.

Fights I would like to see:
- Arreola vs Chisora
- Joshua vs Fury (or Joshua vs Usyk and Wilder vs Fury)
- Ruiz vs Ortiz
- Whyte vs Joyce
- Hunter vs Hrgovic

Though slightly controversially, Ruiz lost to Joseph Parker, who's revealing himself to be a third-tier. Now this shìtty fight vs Arreola, who didn't throw a punch after the second round. That's all one needs to know.

Case closed. Ruiz's moment in the light is over. Let him enjoy his money and regain his fat.

There's a good chance.

Wilder has a lot to prove tho, not many come back from the kind of mental weakness and set back he showed after losing last time out tho. His aura is gone. He'll always have that power tho, it is freakish to be fair to him.

I see someone else said it, but if Whyte really wants Wilder he has to push for the Ruiz fight now.

I saw what I expected. Body building only binds you up. All that weight lifting didn't improve Andy in any way. It looks like it sapped the snap out of his punches.

LIfting some weights along with other cross training is not "body building" dude...

[Zelda]

He's quite pissed off due to the scoring. I think he did better than 1 round but "feeling like you one" and actual scoring could be different. Arreola did not throw as much as Ruiz.

[Boxing Scene]

Ruiz sucks period. He won't beat any top heavyweight. Povetkin would have beat his ass like he did Whyte. He caught Joshua in the temple otherwise he loses that night also.
