Andy Ruiz:"I'm not going to Saudi Arabia, the fight will happen on my terms in the US

Typical American fighter not risking fighting outside of his home turf

Typical American fighter not risking fighting outside of his home turf

He fought Parker in New Zealand and got robbed

All he has to say is he has a moral objection to fighting in a country that throws gays off of buildings and beheads people in the street , and fears for his safety in a country that murders journalists . Nobody will argue with that , except maybe Eddie

But AJ can go to a country where crazed people do mass murders unprovoked? A country with cities that dominate the list of murder capitals in the world? How about the racist president ruling the country since he's black and how black men are killed on the streets like **** in the US?

AJ has more to stand on about not going to America.

That happens to foreign fighters who go to the US all the time

A-Side taking a shlt on that Mexican tough guy warrior myth

[boliodogs]

Ruiz Jr the coward.

No. Ruiz is the champion who knocked AJ out. AJ said he wanted to return to New York for the rematch. Then he chickened out of that idea.

I would definitely support him not going to Saudi Arabia but so far as fighting in the UK, I think he has to honor his contractual obligation.

I'm assuming anyway. It's not like I've read the contract.

For sure. Saudi Arabia has some messed up ethical stuff going on there and refusing to go on those grounds would be not only justified, but honorable.

Had he not said he wanted more cash to go to Saudi earlier

For sure. Saudi Arabia has some messed up ethical stuff going on there and refusing to go on those grounds would be not only justified, but honorable.

Maybe AJ has a moral right not to go to the US as a protest against schoolchildren being mowed down by assault rifles in school. That would also be honourable.
