Would you back any current heavyweight to beat Andy Ruiz going toe to toe?

If this is a slobber-knocker that you are talking about, five rounds or less, then the son of the 'Duke' is the right man for the job. Trey Lippe Morrison has a 100% KO ratio and is now under Freddie Roach and the Wild-Card-Gym.

Trey, would light Andy Ruiz up like Tommy did old slow George Foreman -- and if Trey doesnt do the job on tubby, bet that Kenzie Morrison does the job.

I think over the course of history, perhaps just Ali or Ortiz, but both would need PEDS and a lot of luck to even have a sniff of a chance against Ruiz.

Going toe to toe is not just about mindless trading of punches as you still need a solid defence. Tyson fury could stand in front of him and still do well against him, and so could other guys like ortiz, povetkin and even the current version of AJ who KO'ed pulev. AJ has gathered enough info on ruiz fighting both ways (head on and defensive), and if AJ happens to fight him again, he would mix it up and beat ruiz up even better IMO.

Nope

Fury, wilder and AJ again get ktfo

Aj would. He would light him up in a third match with short nice combinations (like The way he fought Takam). He just needs to keep his guard up and not be first but be the counterpuncher.

Fury has never lost a dog fight

Just doesn’t need to do it. He could maul Ruiz if he wanted

**removed** · 02-20-2021, 06:22 AM

My man Savage would bust fat boy up.

I'd back Fury to do it as well, no man born from his mother can out-fight the Gypsy King.

current heavy, nah, but david haye would have, king of toes

Fury. Fury's defence on the inside is superb. He could go chest to chest with Ruiz and get the better of it.

I think Ruiz would beat Wilder toe to toe, as Wilder needs that distance to land his best shots, but I think Wilder beats him in a normal fight.

I'd take Ruiz to beat most others though, definitely Povetkin, Whyte, and most the other top guys.

Not sure about Hrgovic, need to see more of him, but I like what I see, and hear he is very durable.

I really like the Ruiz vs Wilder fight. Would love to see that. That being said, I need Ruiz to show me something in his fight vs Arreola, really poor in Joshua rematch.

I think Ruiz vs Joyce would be a war too.
