You dont usually get known off of being the late sub who beats the debuting in your country famous in his own country guy. If AJ had had some US fights or more famous worldwide I suspect Andy would be known better.

It's sad how Andy Ruiz can walk around and nobody knows who he is

One reason is because he is not “the heavyweight champion” of the world. Yes he has 3 of the 4 major titles. But at the end of the day there are 4 major titles, there isn’t 1 title. Wilder has the other one and he is more known than the guy with 3 titles. Ruiz is also not The Ring HW Champ, which would make him THE heavyweight champ. He is also not the HW champ of TBRB. Both are vacant.
Now if Ruiz can beat Joshua again, and then go on to beat the winner of Wilder vs Fury 2, to become the actual HW champ, he would definitely be noticed by the media and more fans would recognize him.
For now, he’s just a title holder, and so is Wilder.

Got it.
he will never be a household name.
same reason why you dont see anyone talking about buster douglas.
if i see buster walking in the street would i recognize him? probably not. picture op? pass.
if i see ruiz in public trying to look hard would i take a pic with him? nah ill just look at him like someone i recognize from the gym and go about my own business.

Even here, people don't give him his due even though he won his belts fair and square. Just because he's fat.
They're eager to deepthroat Anthony Joshua dlckhead though, even though he got knocked the **** out, just because he's pretty.
Hes puerto rican who cares

Don't expect people to fancy or understand a sport that nowadays has more 'world champions' than challengers ...Last edited by Ben Bolt; 11-29-2019, 07:03 PM.

If he goes on a few fight win streak then I'm sure people will know him. Plus he doesn't have anything that makes him stand out.
When I see saw Wilder I knew it was him because of his size and style.
When I saw Chuck Liddell from the UFC walking towards me I knew it was him because of his tats on his head.
You have to have something.
Do you?
