That walrus like creature seems in awe of the Samoan slickster

I keep saying it, but, again, fans are sleeping on this fight it seems. Looks like it's a near sellout at the arena there, so local interest is good. And neither of these fighters will just show up for a paycheck. Can't wait.

I agree . Parker had a good win against Takam and his handlers seem to be building to a fight against Joshua . Which would be a really good fight with two big , strong young heavyweights . Ruiz looks make him easy for people to doubt he can fight . But Ruiz has skill and hits pretty hard so hope we get a Good fight . Wish it was being televised ...Anyone know where I can watch it ?

Boxrec lists Andy Ruiz at 6´2 (188 cm) but in reality he is 5´11 1/2 (182 cm). Whats the point to bill the fighters 2 inches taller than they are ? The same with Luis Ortiz who is 6´2 but boxrec lists him at 6´4.

They do that in every sport. A ridiculous human tradition to throw 3 inches on your height. The best is when one guy adds to many so the athlete billed as 6'3" is for some reason a head shorter than the guy billed as 5'10".

Ruiz looking TERRIBLE here, physically and mentally.

Can you please tell me how you came to the conclusion that he's mentally looking terrible?
