Comments Thread For: Crawford: Andy Ruiz Will Bounce Back, Come Back Stronger

[dannnnn]

I don't think it's fair to the earth to find out whether or not Andy Ruiz bounces.

Andy Ruiz vs. Adam Kownacki! Make It Happen! Should be a great fight in Brooklyn!

J. Prince and Al Haymon should match Big Baby Miller vs. Luis Ortiz at the Barclay's! That would be an awesome card!

I like you... you don't want Andy vs any American fighter, right?...

The only "American" fighters I would like to see Andy fight, at this point in his career, are Michael Hunter, Jarrell Miller, and Deontay Wilder. Hunter is with MatchRoom, and he was Andy's sparring partner for Joshua. Wilder has Fury, Whyte, and Joshua to worry about. Lastly, there's Big Baby, who's been out the ring for over a year! I think Adam Kownacki, who came to America from Poland when he was 7, would be a great test to see if Andy can bounce back like Crawford says he will do! Also Kownacki is with PBC, which should make the fight easy to make!

OK, I see... while Ruiz vs Ortiz isn't that good, right?...

Crawford is right and so is Holyfield. Ruiz is still in the mix as a top HW and needs to train accordingly.

He has got skills and potential but you either have good self-discipline or you don't.

Ruiz hasn't got the mental fortitude to keep training when he doesn't want to.
Unfortunately, there have been many sportsmen who never reached their full potential because they couldn't shake the laziness out of themselves. Ruiz is one of those who will never be all they can be.

He's too lazy to fulfill his potential, he never will.

Ruiz vs. Ortiz would be good, but I want to see if Kownacki is ready for the big leagues, and I think Andy would be a better test than Ortiz!

I think Ortiz would be a better test for Miller, since Miller was out for some time, and Ortiz is coming off a KO loss! I read that J. Prince's plan was to sign a co-promotion with Top Rank, but I haven't seen any movement on that. Big Baby needs the Barclay's for his comeback, so maybe Haymon and Prince can work something out before Big Baby goes to TR?

I think Andy needs to fight at least every 4 months. "Idle time is the Devil's workshop!"

He looks finished at the world level IMO, and honestly shouldn't have been there. The win came more from being underestimated than it did being better than his opponent, and the rematch proved that resoundingly.
