It is his second best ever opponent so in relative terms it is one of his tougher. I expect him to win but Andy Ruiz does need to fight top 20 top 30 guys.

Golden Boy's other heavy Taishon Dong fights next week. Would be interested to see if he has made any improvements.

Ray Austin looked pretty damn fat at the weigh in. Ruiz always looks a little pudgy. No change here, but Austin looked way fatter than he used to be.

Austin sucks. Ruiz wins just by sucking much less.

Mariasz Wach gets a GIFT decision at home vs awful bum Nascimento. Would've lost were the fight anywhere else. Dude was a -15000 favorite.

Always impressed by Andy Ruiz' skill set, fast hands, chin, determination.

Give it to the kid he's dropped almost 40 pounds since his pro debut.

Would like to see him come in around 220.

If he got in shape he wouldn't be a heavyweight.

Marciano and Ruiz? Both males born in the 20th century.

I think he's rated just fine considering he apparently never has any intention of actually getting in shape and getting the best out of himself.

He started his career at 300lb.. And has gradually got down to high 240lb low 250lb.. The effort is there to see.. Plus he can do 10 rounds very comfortably.. Just a naturally fat ish guy.. Shouldn't at all matter what he looks like.. The man can really fight... Remember how he destroyed a ripped unbeaten joe hanks?? The fat did him no probs there... :oops:
He also hasn't fought a Top 30 opponent yet.

Ohhhh that's probably his fault then.. Hahaha.. He 27-0 loads of knockouts and a chin to match.. They must be lining up to fight him.. After destroying joe hanks, an unbeaten highly touted American .. He's been swerved like the plague.. They all (the promoters) use the same excuse.. He's too fat to sell! Imagine that.. Huge Mexican following that can't sell.. It's politics that he doesn't get the fights pure and simple.. They can't avoid him forever.. You'll see..
I look forward to seeing him fight real competition.

Started at 300 pounds and worked his way down to high 240's and low 250's, just means that he worked his way down from Obese to Fat. He's still Fat.

There is a long list of Heavyweights that can do 10rds comfortably with a completely shot fighter. The fact it went ten is far more disturbing than Ruiz proving anything.
