    8 pounds is not really a big deal at his size if that's all it is. Maybe he expects the fight to last longer and he is prepping for that. Maybe Tyson is right. Tyson is a smart guy and very insightful actually.

      By making a change it suggests that Ruiz knows the first fight was a fix and he has to be much much better this time.

        Both guys been making me nervous.

        Ruiz won the first fight but needs to change his bodytype this time?

        Joshua supposedly just had a off night
        But needs to change his fighting style.

        This fight is very interesting

          What?? You agree that Joshua fixed himself into 12 unnecessary knock downs and additional punishment just cause?

            Ruiz needs to be big, muscular and fat in order to chin Joshua’s dense power punches. He’ll need it to beat Wilder too.

              No i agree with the part about Ruiz being confident winning.

              Not his Area 51 conspiracy suggestion

                Ruiz gained a lot of weight after the 1st fight and he needed to lose some to get in shape. Just like Mike has said, he is not for but it all depends on Ruiz. Maybe Ruiz has some other ideas and a different plan for this fight. Lets wait and see what happens on 7th.
                All the best to both boxers but i can't say the best person on the night may win. Anything can happen in Heavyweight and we saw that last weekend.

                  Andy isn't looking to change his body for looks. He's looking to improve on conditioning, so how can that be a bad thing? If his body looks different as a result of improving his conditioning, than so be it, but looks isn't the goal. Heavyweights used to look conditioned because they were in great shape, not because they were trying to look a certain way. Being fat didn't help Andy win in any way. He won despite being fat, because he has skills and heart and speed. Losing a few pounds will only improve his natural gifts. It will not hurt him at all. Look for his hands to be even faster and his punches to carry even more pop than last time

                    I have said this exact thing about Arreola & Chisora many times...

                      I don't either. If losing weight in any weight hinders his punch resistance, he's fooked.
