Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz Hits Saudi Arabia: I'll Make History Again!

[vitali1999]

Joshua lost to a short fat little Mexican. His career is over. Lewis lost to a decent puncher who was in great shape in McCall and was a one punch stoppage on his feet not a knock you all around the ring and down for times like Joshua

Can't wait until this fight happens so people will finally stop talking about it

What time is this fight ET?

Around 5 pm.

Ruiz doesn't look any skinnier to me...

He isn't any skinnier. I've been saying this all along. Last quote he said he'd come in 6 to 8 pounds lighter than last fight. He won't look any different. And I think that is probably good. Rather see that than some drastic weight loss.

It's not often they get the Heavy Weight Champion of boxing to fight in their country. So ticket sales shouldn't be an issue. The Pay per view sales would be the one's to be worried about. Especially with the time zone issue.

I think they've timed it well.

UK and US will be able to watch on PPV and DAZN respectively late night or early evening. No middle of the night stuff.

In the UK it should do huge numbers, though not sure how it's being received in the US.

This is shady to me. The judges are probably already bought to give Joshua the nod if he ends the fight on his feet. Anything that can be arranged in Joshua's favor will and no one will be able to say or do anything about it. Ruiz needs a KO!! There is no other alternative!!

I expect the ref will not let Andy within 2 meters of Joshua.
AJ will probably be able to call his own timeouts like in The Parker fight.

I also guarantee AJ's tape will come off his gloves just as hes getting tired mid round. And his mouth guard will fly out while hes on the ground.

I can't wait to see the Saudi Tecate round card girls. I hear their eyes are amazing.

I like Andy. The upset in the first fight didn’t shock me. But I have a feeling he’s gonna lose the way he should have the first time.

You could be right. So let's see.
