Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: If Andy Ruiz Catches Deontay Wilder - It's Lights Out!

[elfag]

AJ showed its pretty easy to control the distance with Ruiz if you want to.


Ruiz at his peak COULD knockout Wilder, but when does he ever show up in peak condition? hell he lost a bunch of weight that one fight and then said he felt crappy so got fat again

The 9th and the 22nd best heavyweights of the past half century clash whilst still in their prime. Huge fight.
Upcomming:
Fury vs. Usyk
Wilder vs. Ruiz Jr
Joshua vs. Franklyn
Zhang vs. Joyce
Yoka vs. Takam
.....all huge fights.

I pick Wilder by late rounds knockout. Too much heart, power and reach, and has a great jab. Fury remains the only man on earth who is Wilder's equal, and that, by an almost imperceptible measure.

"Imperceptible"...???Lmao....Wilder got outboxed in the first and was brutally beaten to a pulp like red headed stepchild in the following two...there was nothing "almost Imperceptible" about those ass beatings nor the gap in levels between them bruh smh lol.....

Ruiz would have to block ever major right hand for all 12 rounds. Wilder would just need a split second in any of the potential 45 minutes of the fight. Under all that fat is a natural cruiserweight with the skeletal of a Cruiserweight. This would be a mack truck vs a U-Haul. Wilder ends it with Ruiz on his back.

I agree that this fight is just hype and has little chance of happening, but I think the fight that Wilder's team is really looking for is the Ngannou fight. There is possibly more money in in a Ngannou fight than an AJ fight at this point (possibly), and a Ngannou fight definitely brings more exposure. Best of all, its another guaranteed highlight reel KO for Wilder 's resume.

I don't follow MMA at all,does this Ngannou cat have that big of a following considering against AJ,Wilder would be looking at a minimum $25 million dollar payday?

The likelihood of either koing each other is equal. But I lean more towards wilder being koed as I've seen him koed twice

Serious questions: 1. How long have you been a fight fan? How many hours of video games do you play per day?

Professional heavyweight fighting is the hurt game. All fighters take punches and all fighters get buzzed and hurt; especially at the championship level. There is no shame in this, its just the nature of elite professional fighting. Ruiz Jr has been buzzed and dropped but he's always come back strong in those instances, a fact tha speaks to his excellent chin, stamina and recovery abilities. Deontay Wilder also has demonstrated an exceptional chin and toughness. He endured sustained beatings from a 6'9' 280lb man for many rounds befor succumbing to heavy, clean power punches. Not sure how many video games a kid has to play to believe that Tyson Fury is punching with pillows.

1. Long enough. 2. Zero what a ****** question, don't try and put your lifestyle on to me i haven't played a single game since the 90s.

Ruiz has been allowed to come back in his fights, AJ was ****** assuming Ruiz was badly hurt and paid the price, In the Arreola fight he's fighting a washed up guy who's suddenly trying to be a counter puncher rather than a pressure fighter and against another washed up fighter and 50 year old man in Ortiz when he got with anything resembling a clean punch he tucks tail and is beyond terrified

it's absurd to imply being hit by a fat 6'6 Fury who can't even throw straight punches with the correct technique shows Wilder has a good chin, he wilted to him and he can't crack an egg with a hammer on his best day...

A kid i'm probably older than you son, so behave yourself and I don't think Fury punching with pillows I KNOW he does, unless he's SOMEHOW developed ridiculous amounts of power since his come back, the guy doesn't even pack the power of some SMW/LHWs...

I don't consider these last 3 to be huge fights. They are interesting fights that I may or may not watch

Wilder a smarter fighter than AJ?

AJ is one of the dumbest people in boxing, don't act like that's saying much.

In no version of reality are those chances equal. One is a morbidly obese over-achiever who got lucky against AJ who can't take a punch. Wilder has to be beaten half to death before he gets KO'd.

Andy needs to get back in the Ring. F all this waiting on Wilder crap. Charles Martin is the perfect stay busy fight. Everyday Andy is out of the Ring lessens his chances. I favor Wilder but an active Ruiz is a dangerous Ruiz.
