There's a lot of hate for Ruiz, which explains some replies seen in boxing forums and reports. Speaking from an objective point of view, I would like to ask something. When was the last time Ruiz was knocked out? I have never seen people mention a KO so much yet it was 13 years ago. The last fighter to drop Ruiz was Golota and that was 5 years ago. Ruiz always finds a way to make it through the fight even when overmatched against bigger guys. Haye is a very talented fighter with power, which still has to be proven against elite heavyweights. He is not naturally bigger than Ruiz so an early KO by haye should not be a realistic expectation.
Ruiz is the underdog here, mainly because he's past his best, but he could pull the upset. Realistically, I say Haye should win on points.
