    Ruiz weighed in at 268lbs for his first fight with AJ. He would need to lose 93lbs minimum to make it to light heavyweight. That's over one third of his entire body mass.

    He's a fat **** but if he's trying to maintain muscle I'm not even sure he could make it to cruiser without a life changing diet and **** load of PEDs. You might still even need to chop a leg off.

      On the flipside, Wilder has often hovered a few lbs north of the Cruiserweight limit. Obv he was greener back when he was that light, but his physical advantages would've been crazy over the fighters that little bit too big for light-heavy.

          Wilder would've caught quite a bit more than "a few bodies "at lhw had he fought there, IMHO of course.

          There was a recent thread about "why wasn't Tyson greater than hes seen",I mentioned that Tyson would be far greater had he been capable of starting his pro career at a lighter weight earlier than he did,(& if that lying "woman" didn't say he ****d her) because he would've surely been a multiple weight champ & he would have still destroyed at hw after. But instead he wasted his prime in prison & only ever fought at hw where he was at a natural size disadvantage which is why imho he got kd so often when he did by bigger guys & even in Holyfields case still bigger naturally than tyson once he filled in at hw.

            Even cruiserweight is out of the question for Ruiz. Light heavy would be absurd.

              Ruiz could probably make cruiser weight but he is much too big and muscular to come in anywhere near 175 without being drained all to hell.

                Why do you want to make such a strange fight when Canelo has Bivol and Beterbiev he can fight at 175 and Ruiz has AJ, Wilder and Fury to fight? Boxers should fight at or near their correct healthy weight in my opinion.

                  Two threads on the board at the same time about Canelo fighting Ruiz. It's a crazy ****** idea and would be a ****** circus of a fight. It will never happen and a thread about it is a waste of a thread. Ruiz is a big strong full sized heavyweight while Canelo's best weight is probably 168. You can't put together a good fair fight between two men who are about 70 pounds apart. Just let both men fight in the proper weight class. You might as well try to make a good even fight between Canelo and Inoue. It's a ****** idea that will never happen. Canelo is great against men his size but uiz is the heavyweight champion of the world and much too big and powerful for any boxer Canelo's weight.

                    Don't reckon so bud. I mean, if Andy really wanted to I guess technically he could but I doubt Ruiz has any interest in being 175.
