Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz on Facing Joshua in UK: That's Not Going To Happen!

[MulaKO]

There was a rematch clause so Ruiz Jr. is under contract but there was no mention on venue in the contract to my knowledge so if the two sides cannot agree on where it may come down to purse bids and the highest bid will determine the location. If this is the case as I suspect, any debate on where at this point is mute.

If you are right , I believe that most likely Dazn would be the highest bidder
PBC would not have the coin to prove me wrong
But , I do believe if big A can convince AJ to do it on ppv he’d probably make more money and raise his popularity this side of the pawn
Ppv is far from dead , especially when the people want the fight they’ll purchase it no matter what
We as fans have been eating chit for this long , not only that but now we’ve got platforms being matchmakers

Ruiz Jr. had one fight left on his Top Rank contract and they were keeping him starving until he re-signed. Andy had to buy out his contract to get out.

Bob Arum is shady as hell.

Which promoter isn’t
Just out of curiosity
That’s their fughin job , just like my lawyer and the government

The Whyte fiasco is obviously what Ruiz is concerned with. Dianabol and a questionable glove change. How about the italian ref for the A.J/Parker fight. Even other fighters accused the guy of shenanigans. Read below:

Yeah it must be that, psychic Ruiz who was saying he wasnt going to the UK well before anything happened with Whyte can see the future before it happens.

Ruiz could agree to a UK fight, fake an injury 2 weeks before the bout, then renegotiate to have it in the US.

Baby Hughie and Team Fury did that to Oilskin Parker thinking they could rob him of his belt when they rescheduled to Manchester.

Beats me how they stil think it was a debatable decision. You can't ran away for 12 rounds and expect to be handed a title for it.

And all that while Baby Hughie was on a PED investigation with Tyson for eating "roided" boar.

A side Andy would be better off staying as far away from Fast Eddie and the UK as he can get!

As usual cute reply except this B.S has always been going on over there. Joshua beat Parker. Easy to beat a guy who isn't allowed to fight his fight. I will let you get the last word in because you are a defender not a realist!

Having an injury doesn't negate a rematch clause, just means it's postponed, otherwise literally every fighter could do it and it would be worthless, you think lawyers don't cover these things. You don't pay a grand an hour for muppets to miss totally obvious stuff like that.

Surely everyone should agree if Ruiz negotiated and signed that rematch clause he should honour it no?

Thats kind of you. Ruiz, as is normal for an American Boxer, was refusing to leave the US well before this Whyte thing. Its just typical of Ameican fighters, they refuse to travel. Its nothing new and they grasp at weak excuses.

To be honest American fighters refusing to travel for worry of "FAIR PLAY" just seems to be the biggest double standard when America is the place with the reputation for being the PEDS capital and the ROBBERY capital of the Boxing world.

But my actual point was that you claim the Whyte situation is the reason he dont want to go to the UK but the truth is hes been making excuses to not fight in the UK well before that happened, thats just something new to latch on to.

dazn has lost 100% of the purse bids that they've gone to so far...

It was debatable because one of the judges gave it a draw.

I don’t believe they would lose this one
Not with their top batter in the ninth
It would be a fughin disgrace the way they threw money around
Fughin Derevyanchenko refused 5 million for a fight with Canelo ; you think that would of happened before Dazn started throwing money around
