Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz: I'm Not Here To Lose Weight & Be Skinny - It's Not A Body Contest

[BodyBagz]

It's disconcerting that Andy thinks a HW has to be ''skinny'' in order to be in shape.
It's not either or

[oldschoolfool]

Such a shame. Hes a great boxer, could be great, but his hunger for burgers outweighs his hunger for greatness.

Lmao people really giving it to ruiz. Everyone in the division is fat as hell like wtf. Literally windmill and aj are the only "fit" ones. Usyk too I guess but not as muscular. It works for Andy so who cares

Until it didn’t work

How did it not work?

He lost miserably in the rematch because he was completely overweight and out of shape. Also if no one noticed even in his first fight with AJ had he not got him out of there he was already laboring

I never said he wasn’t talented. No I haven’t seen the inside of a boxing ring and sorry to burst your bubble but having spent 5 years in The United States Marine Corps and always have been in top physical condition; I have no fear of man. So no, what I say on screen I have NO issue saying it face to face. Like my drill instructor I’d say he’s a fatbody.

I'd love to see that. Big difference when you're not hiding behind a gun tough guy.

My God. Please stop with this nonsense already! He won 3 World HW titles and you're STILL trying to discredit him. Just admit it; You're not a fan. We get it!

Nah, not laboring .... but he had ate some very good punches. That affects anyone. Admittedly he couldn't chase anyone down at that weight. He couldn't move well either.

Ruiz has only been in pitiful shape in the AJ rematch. All other fights ... seemingly overweight and all ... he has performed like he did the first AJ fight. Punches in bunches, surprising movement at times, heavy hands. And even in the AJ fight ... he didn't gas out ... even at 283 lbs. He just couldn't corner AJ and force him to engage.

AJ did bring a fierce jab that fight (curious he left it at home for the Usyk fights).

Ruiz needs to lose tons of fat and put on muscle, that way he'll be much stronger.

If he loses fat, he'll lose muscle too.

If he wants to fight regularly he just needs to train for optimum performance. The weight will settle as a result. I suspect that's somewhere around 250.

Why do you think he left that jab at home? Is he gun shy since his losses? Usyk doesn’t have the greates power at HW.
