lolol. Watch any video of Ruiz. He said he got the title shot himself and did all the work. That he contacted hearns. Haymon didn’t get him that title shot lololol

He made me laugh when he told the ref, you're white help me.

Funniest dude ever. When he lost to Holmes he says he had him right where he wanted him. He said his whole plan was to beat up holmes fists with his face and tire him out, he just ran outta rounds....lol.

It's worse than that he has to pay his manager, head trainer, cut man and possible strength and conditioning coach. He possibly also was supporting his birth family too.

So if he was doing all this and netting after taxes about 200K that can disappear real quick.......

Manager, trainer, cutman, S&C falls under expenses which I mentioned lol but yeah people think boxers take home the purse that's mentioned and that's not true trainers is automatic 10% after that he still has to pay the team and so forth.
