    Ruiz is just calling out money. Call out Zhang instead. I dont really want to see Ruiz after his last fight, going life and death with whats-his-name (no offense, just cant remember). But I wouldnt mind watching Zhange vs Ruiz.

      Please, Wilder and his people has a great contract for a fight and all Ruiz had to do was sign.

        Nobody wanted Wilder vs Helenius.

        "He can take something or take nothing".
        Further cementing that you're a Wilder d rider. 50/50 is fair. Anything else is a lowball and a clear duck.
        10 title defenses vs. 0 title defenses. 35-65 is fair.

          Andy Ruiz needs to focus his sights outside of the US.

          Seems clear no network/platform is interested in making heavyweight fights Americans want to see. Wilder and his team has been eyeing on Joshua for a Middle East fight.

            Ruiz must understand he is not a super star and he must low down his money expectations.

            Go fight Pero, Demiredzen, Bakole..

              I’m getting cash-out vibes from Ruiz. There’s zero wrong with that, except that no one’s going to fund his retirement asking price.

              Not even the most famous HW’s right now, can sell like CURRENT Mike Tyson, but Andy Ruiz is way too far away from it. And that’s his own doing. I think after his win over AJ, he had great momentum to become a HW star but he killed that himself.

                  Yes, but nobody cares about old washed up ex stars like Ruiz and Wilder right now.

                  Wilder wants a huge Joshua pay day. Not gonna happen.

                  Ruiz wants a huge Wilder fight. Not gonna happen.

                    ruiz wants to fight wilder and wilder is ducking by lowballing him. also how can a ruiz and wilder fight be huge if no one cares about ruiz and wilder?

                      10 defenses against who?

                      Andy was the unified champ and fought better competition. You could make your argument before Andy beat AJ but not after.
