Ruiz is DONE

[MDPopescu]

When I say hes done, I mean as a title challenger. He might get a paycheck v wilder but nothing other than that.

... not even that... because he never was a "title challenger" in the first place... he only was a late, late replacement...

Ruiz is done. His work ethic is non-existent and he will ride off into the sunset rich, chubby and diabetic.

These threads are so dumb. Sure he came in out of shape and unprepared but that doesn't mean Ruiz is done.

A motivated in shape Ruiz is a problem for anyone. Hopefully he understands now that he needs to get in shape to win and does exactly that from here on out.

And btw Al Haymon if you're reading this.... Please make Ruiz vs Kownacki next on Fox.

He had his 15 minutes of fame but as many asked, "is he letting it all go to his head?"

Wlad Klitschko said after Fury's implosion that success tests a man...it tested Ruiz and the Mex/American failed miserably. Not only was he in the worst shape of his life, he lied through the press tour about how well he was training, about the weight he was losing, about the tactics he and his team had in place.

The guy did nothing but walk around the ring eating jabs and right hands and accumulating cuts and bruises. There was no point, not even a single minute of a single round where he was competitive. Not one.

Ruiz will be remembered as Douglas, as Rahman, as McCall...so much for all that talk, they are one hit wonders. It is sad because Ruiz tries his best to play the nice, humble guy yet eats all day and parties all night. All about family though

The man is done.

I’d give you green but I don’t have any right now.
Best post I’ve seen on the subject. Very sad.

Exactly. You preceded me on this. The guy is a candidate for a heart condition at a young age.

I don't know. As a promoter, are you willing to gamble on that?

I am sure he will get paid again but everyone will be wary about what kind of shape he is in after he came in so big yesterday.

Ruiz was motivated against parker and had his moments but failed to close the show. There are other similar examples throughout his career.

His management team doesn't even strike while the irons hot, after parker he should have fought the likes of whyte, chisora, ortiz, Jennings...anyone of name but ended up fighting nobodies.

A failure on all accounts who in 5 years time will cry at a wasted career.

I’d give you green but I don’t have any right now.

Thanks man

AJ had the right style for him to capitalize on and AJ underestimated him. AJ made massive adjustments the second fight so even if Ruiz came in at 245, he would still need to make the same massive level adjustments in being able to cut off the ring.

Ruiz isnt beating Wilder or Fury and he isnt beating AJ even if they had a 3rd match, which there is no demand for.

Ruiz's next career move is calling out AJ, accusing him of ducking the rubber match and using that attention to promote whatever bum they can line him up with.

He is what he is. An above average fighter that doesn’t train right who had the night of his life on short notice.
