By Jake Donovan - Andy Ruiz nearly let another one slip away. A trio of knockdowns was the difference on the scorecards, as the Imperial, California native managed a twelve-round, unanimous decision over Miami's Luis Ortiz. Judges Zachary Young (114-111). Eddie Hernandez (114-111) and Fernando Villareal (113-112) scored in favor of Ruiz, who floored Ortiz twice in round two and again in round seven to prevail in their WBC heavyweight title semifinal eliminator Sunday evening at ******.com Arena in Los Angeles.

It does make it difficult for some countries outside the USA. There is a holiday on Monday in the USA so I don't think the PPV numbers will suffer much. In fact since Ruiz and other fighters have a large fan base USA so maybe they didn't think it would be a problem. It is really weird having it on a Sunday night though.

Somewhat interested in the Rayo v De Los Santos.

I think the late replacement De Los Santos is alright - but man Rayo looks waay bigger in the weigh-in.
