    Same guy he was then just they seen the problems he had when faced with someone that wasn't stood straight in front of him so put him in with sitting ducks. Same problems arose in the Parker fight.

      What good is it having fast hands if you are short with cement feet, zero head movement and the armspan of an average 12yr old against a guy with better feet who stands 6ft6 with an 82" reach and a world class jab?

      He is not getting passed that jab, period.

      I think this is more wishful thinking than anything tbh but I genuinely hope I am wrong because I just see a big mismatch tbh.
      A very good, fundamentally sound huge HW vs a fringe contender type too lazy to make CW.

        Cant really complain with Ortiz turning down the fight, Miller testing positive and Wilder in hiding.

        But AJ beats Ruiz is easy.

          I suspect Ruiz will have a moment or two early then get blasted out.

            The fight was 6 years ago. You could have used his last fight to make your point, or even the Parker fight, to use a fight that was from 2013! When the man was a teenager 😂...

              A teenager? He was 24 with over a hundred amateur fights. A grown man in his prime. A set fighter.

              I used Tor Hamer as he's a guy who shouldn't be touching up any truly decent HW and certainly not like that. Parker, sure but Hamer?

              The thing is I don't see any improvements from then just more cautious matchmaking. He fought one guy since with a ring I.Q that used angles on him and he lost.

              Who is his best win anyway? Quickly glancing over his record has he even beaten anybody ranked in the top say 30?

                  10 to 1

                  Was hoping to see Buster Douglas odds

                    No need to hype this fight, the Miller fight was bad already and now this is even worse.Just let it happen and lets move on

                      Have you seen Ruiz fight? He's better than Miller
