    Decent signing, could be matched up with Joyce, Martin, Kownacki , Ajagba or Arreola soon I guess..

    Guess he couldn't live off a 2013 win over Tor Hamer forever. So how many times will Andy Ruiz lose this year?

    Hopefully this will see him fight a live body again. Ruiz was competitive with Parker and has done absolutely nothing since.

    Breazele would grind Ruiz out. It'd be a bloody war but we can assume Ruiz would quit. Ruiz preformed well against Parker (Lost 8-4) but got lit up vs Hammer.

    Ruiz is good because of his AM pedigree but clearly something is up. His matchmaker was terrible, he was borderline the Mexican Butterbean. I hope now Ruiz Proves the fans wrong. Maybe PBC is perfect for him & now he'll fight Top Heavyweights.

    Ruiz would be more likely to call me out for this post then ever dare call out Wilder.

    I'd favor Martin UD Ruiz maybe even late stoppage. Ruiz will fight Arreola in May or Sept. Ruiz is waiting to slip into another World Title fight (Big Money then disappear)

    At least Martin is out here testing himself. Can't gauge where Ruiz at. Martin is seasoned. Kownacki Beats Ruiz imo

    Good move by Ruiz Jr he wasn't going anywhere with Arum as they'd made it clear they had lost faith in him after he showed no real effort to ever get in shape.

    Question is though does PBC try and build him up or does he simply get used to pad the record of one of the other PBC heavies. I don't see Ruiz Jr beating Wilder, Ortiz, Breazeale or Joyce.

    Kownacki/Ruiz Jr would be a decent fight, though again I'm not sure I'd favour Ruiz Jr.

    At this point anything is progress & he should probably be @ cruiserweight

    He falls comfortably into the 1 fight per year or two that PBC provides.

    The biggest waste (literally and figuratively) of HW talent in the past 10 years.

    Well, this is much better than staying with Top Rank for number of reasons. He will fight better opposition and will be closer to world title shot in couple of fights. This is good signing by PBC. Andy Ruiz Jr is well known in US and can sell tickets with his style and nationality.
