Fantasy match-up: Ruiz Jr vs Kownacki

Post by dagilechia »

The WBA, IBF, WBO and KFC belts unification :box: it would be entertaining no doubt. I think that if Kownacki fought Joshua that night, he would win as well. Imo he punches harder than Ruiz, throws slighty more punches, but Ruiz has superior footwork, slighty faster hands and better defence, better technical skills. I'd say it's 50/50, i would have favoured Kownacki before, now i'd rather say that Ruiz would win by 116-112, 115-113 type of decision.

Snickers + Burritos and Pierogi + Kiełbasa are better than Miller's juice :bag:

Would be a pretty good action bout between 2 guys who can't be bothered getting into peak shape :lol:

I'd favor Ruiz and his more refined skills. Kownacki is aggressive, and he'd force Ruiz to have to fight fire with fire...which he would.

it could set the record of thrown/landed punches in the HW championship bout. They would likely throw more in one round than Fury and Klitschko in the whole fight.

You can almost be guaranteed of that. That's the case with most fights. Because most fights are...well fights.

I don't think it'd set any records, but it'd be a good one to watch.

Kownacki and Ruiz were rumoured to fight each other at some point, it was before or after the Kownacki vs Martin, i don't remember well.

Very one sided.

Kownascki is just a flavor of the month. A white guy with an entertaining persona and an attention getting doughy build. And he can whack a little.

But he'll fall apart when he actually fights a true world class opponent.

Ruiz would punish him badly.

Your probably right. Kownacki is game though, so it won't be short of action.
I really want to see Parker Kownacki as well.

Kownacki against Arreola should be fun.

Up until Andy became champ i rated him and Kownacki about the same, and a fight between them was one of my favourite fantasy matches at heavyweight.

I think Adam needs a spectacular win of his own before I could get back the same level of interest / anticipation. Now if he were to crush Wilder ...

I can't see it but then there was AJ v Ruiz.
