Comments Thread For: Ruiz: I'll Weigh In The Same I Did For First Joshua Fight

[Ray*]

He basically lost the weight that he put on after the win. I wasn’t expecting him to actually lose weight and look trimmer than his usual self. Not sure why he would want to lose weight. You don’t need to change anything. Just keep wearing your black T-shirt until fight night.

Ruiz had a longer camp than.last time. How come he's so big again?

Heavyweights aren't supposed to gain or lose weight to improve. They're supposed to improve and, as a result, either gain or lose weight.

The scales will be more interesting than usual. If Ruiz was expecting to be 8 lbs lighter and isn't going to be, then that points to something not being right in camp.

Well Said! Mirrors Over Scales! I think a fitness goal (Improve your 5K time, or 100M Swim time, etc.) is always a better goal than a number on a scale!

I don't think weight is that much of a factor for Ruiz, it's more for AJ.

He did seem to have lost weight a couple of months ago, but a lot of people were telling him to keep the weight on (e.g. Roach, Tyson) so maybe he stopped losing.

Or maybe he's just one of those fat people who finds it impossible to control his eating for an extended period of time.

I think your second point hits the mark. Ruiz finds it impossible to control his eating. To make a few bucks, I was going to buy stock in Mars Corp, the parent company of snickers, in case Andy won again, but they are not a publically traded company.

Somebody didn’t look at the weighing scales, did they!
