Comments Thread For: Arum: Andy Ruiz "Hit The Lottery" After $700K Buyout

[Vodkaholic]

Lmao @ people praising haymon. Ruiz did it himself and fought aj because haymon didnt believe in him. The only fighters he lets fight on other promotions are no hopers i.e molina, khan and Chavez jr

Arum feels like the guy that left the Beatles right before they made it big.

LOL! The Bob Father got ***ed!

He gave up on Ruiz! In other words he F###ed up. If I were Ruiz I'd kiss Al Haymon's ass all the way to the bank.

Seems like you already are but you doing it for free,..... 😄😆

Exactly how i see it! But too many fools on here are quick to say
"Thank Al Haymon, Thank Al Haymon",....
They sound ****** as fucc saying that!

Bob had Ruiz on the shelf. He's a bit bitter but kudos to him for taking the high road..

He didnt see Andy's worth even tho he had a close fight with Parker. At the time, I thought Parker won and rescoring I had it a draw.. it was a close fight that either man could've won. Bob should've atleast know Andy was a legit contender..

Al really takes care of his guys man....

Lol you really believe Al didn't buy Ruiz out of that contract?

Where else does 700k come from?

I don't think pbc did anything special for him. Ruiz was the one who begged eddie hearn for the fight and got it.
ruiz spends his spare time praising the ground al haymon walks on, saying 'if it wasnt for al haymon, i wouldnt be where i am right now'.
wtf? this is why i cant stand the fat ****.

Well that's very true, it was Ruiz who promoted himself, i'm not sure who he's paying for promotion but he should fire their ass. However I think the thanks to Al is probably because it might be stipulated in their contracts somewhere, that they can't fight on rival networks without their/his consent.

This is a recurring theme with Bob. He undervalues a fighter, they leave him and go on to earn more than they ever would have with him. Are you reading this Crawford?

Exactly! I saw and interview where Ruiz said he had to help his dad do construction to get by, this after having fought for a world title with Top Rank. Ruiz was under contract for 1 more fight that Top Rank wouldn't produce until he agreed to more fights but they didn't want to pay him what he was asking for so he wouldn't re-sign. Ruiz said he was basically ready to quit Boxing and start working construction until Haymon freed him from Top Rank. For the most part Haymon takes care of his fighters that's why everyone is always grateful to him.
