Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz Down 25-Pounds, Eager To Bounce Back, Says Trainer

A year to lose 25lb. Hatton used to lose more than that in camp and he was nowhere near the size of Ruiz. ****ing joke. Someone the size of Ruiz should be losing that in 8 week.

OK. Let's do the math. How much is 400 minus 25? Hey, Ruiz is trim. Maybe he is a bit too skinny now.

He's a decent fighter who when in shape would still be favoured to give Joshua all the trouble he could handle and likely dismantle him again but it's all 'buts' with this type of fighter who seems to have a weak attitude to motivation.

It's possible but I doubt it. I think Joshua has his number now. He was doing fine in the first fight until he walked inside to finish Andy off and got clocked upside the head. If they ever have a rubber match, I'd favor AJ regardless of Ruiz's shape because Joshua wasn't right going into the ring for the first fight and underestimated Ruiz. I doubt he would do that again.
