Comments Thread For: Malik Scott: Andy Ruiz is Not a Tough Fight For a 'Disciplined' Deontay Wilder

[garfios]

Wow, boxing is a confusing sport. Some think after 2 ko losses youll be more vulnerable than ever, but this Deontay has improved within a fight? Dont even need to rebuild confidence? But i do believe Wilder can improve, because fighting Fury you will learn a lot from defeat, but beatings might have taken something from Wilder, mainly along the lines of confidence.
Ruiz might be a good test simply because Ruiz will be just about the best fighter Wilder fought not named fury. I do believe Wilder can beat Ruiz, whether he actually will im undecided yet until fight night.

He, ruiz, barely won three rounds against an old pass his prime fighter, actually he won because a knock down that never was, and almost got koed in the last round. He does have a chin, and that might save him. Be safe

I've said it before ... a very dangeros fight for both guys (if Wilder is recovered enough to take head shots and not immediately have severe trauma). Personally, I think Wilder should be sitting out for at least a year and allowing his brain to recover. The head shots he endured were brutal and the brain heals slowly. There is no way to build up endurance in the brain except prolonged rest. Head shots are very likely to result in immediate recurring trauma. No one can properly fight with their brain in a fog.

But it's Wilder's choice to make (if he believes he is ready). If he is then it's a dangerous fight for Ruiz .... who also brings just as much danger for Wilder. Ruiz is adept at fighting bigger opponents. His ability to move, create multiple angles, and keep his hands busy (with power) is very good when he is in range. Will Wilder keep him out of range? That should be a strategy for Wilder .... keep Ruiz out of range (if you can). If Ruiz gets Wilder in range, Wilder will be in a war like none he has ever been in. Ruiz has a great motor (at 250 - 265 lbs) and will definitely put gloves on Wilder.

Of course Wilder still has one-punch capability, and a long reach. If he catches Ruiz and gets him in trouble we know how that will end.

But I've never seen Ruiz in trouble. We've seen him get hit (even knocked down), but he seems to have a very good chin. Is there a chance he can take Wilder's best?

Lots of intrigue in this fight. It should be a great fight if/when it happens, as long as Wilder is recovered properly. If he is not recovered properly Ruiz will batter him. Those are some fast and heavy hands .... behind an excellent motor.

It's the people who defend the likes of Wilder and his deranged cowardly antics over the years that are the problem with boxing. It reflects the people around it. It's why it's a cesspit.

Wilder has ducked everyone that means anything in the division. He only went after Fury when he knew he was in a bad place. Do you really believe he'd fight Fury if he was at his best in the first fight? He wouldn't come close to doing so. He'd duck him like he did the rest. Wilder and his team knew they had nowhere to run when it came to the rematch. They knew they couldn't duck another fighter. Wilder calmed himself by convincing himself that Fury couldn't punch. Therefore, he couldn't be knocked out by him. Wrong.

He's the biggest coward the world of boxing has ever seen. He's the most deranged and narcissistic. He's entitled and pathologically delusional. You'd have to be the same level of freak to defend that subhuman.

Enjoy the way boxing is right now. It's in the mess because of people like you. Those who do, and those who justify it, need to f3ck off and never come back. You've destroyed this sport. You've encouraged all the cowards out there to keep on ducking and lying. You've encouraged them to slander those who do want to fight who are left confused as to what the f3ck is going on here. Well done.

F3ck that piece of shlt.

I didn't even read half of that, you ducked my reasonable question of how a pro boxer can even be considered a coward. Enjoy the way boxing is right now? Are you ok in the head boxing has seen a steady decline for a while now that's old news and has no relevance to what your saying about wilder. I'm not a fan of his sure I watch him from time to time but the reason I quoted you was to call you out on some absolute detritus you typed... I have no qualms with you other than that. You usually seem more rational I don't know if you caught deontay or someone who looks like him in your wife's dm's I don't know can only surmise.

Disciplined Wilder KOs everyone not named Fury and maybe Joyce. He will put the taco seller on the coma. Even 70 yo Ortiz outboxed him smh.

True, but triangle theories should be used with cautioun. It's possible wilder can ko a fighter who's never been koed. But it might be safer to pick fighter who hasn't lost 2 out of his last 3 fights to win.

[PRINCEKOOL]

I am not sure why people think Ruiz Junior can out box Wilder so easily.

Wilder actually has a better Jab, and movement. He also has better endurance and work-rate.

Yes Ruiz Junior is technically a better puncher, and produces good combinations.

But apart from that, I don't think he has the overall ability to easily take rounds off Wilder.

It will be close and competitive in each round. And I think Wilder can win rounds, genuinely on points.

Agreed, but you have to check the competition too. The gipsy king is a nightmare for anyone.

Why do you think boxing is in the position it is now? It's because fighters in North America don't want to take on the fights that matter. Therefore, they're bullies and cowards. It's easy to take on weak opponents. But what does it say about a fighter who point blank refuses the fights they should be taking? It's even worse when they have no intention of taking the fight but slander the opponent to try and discredit him because they don't want people to know what a coward they are. All his lies and contradictions have been exposed. Repeatedly. But yet you still have no problem with that. You even called out AJ in your last post when he'll fight everyone in the division. You've reversed their positions. When cowards like Wilder see "Fans" do that, why would he not continue to duck but just lie without shame that he wants them if he's not going to be held accountable for his actions?

Wilder is an extremist in the worse way. How can you miss it all for you to have no problem with him? He's a narcissist. But calling him a coward is an accurate comment. Being a professional prize fighter doesn't guarantee you having courage and integrity. So many fighters have proven that. Why, what would you call them over there that refuse to fight anyone of note? Don't tell me you believe they want these fights? They've even told you straight that they don't.

Truth be told, Ortiz is a better boxer than ruiz, regardless the age. For some reason ruiz has that spot to the side of the head, on a cross hair. He's like a sniper when it comes to that shot. How a 45 years old Ortiz could recup, and finish stronger than ruiz, is beyond me.

Seems like you are perfectly describing the United Kingdom, you know since Tyson Fury is about to fight Chisora for the 3rd time after he already beat him in dominating fashion twice hahahahaha.
