    I feel like he has the strength in his punches such that with some luck he could possibly knock out any of 'em, but barring luck, he'd likely lose to all of them. Tactical AJ completely outclassed him. Going forward i'd like to see if Ruiz can raise his ring IQ.

    I,d say absolutely not. They,d all pretty much beat him anyway they wanted and i rate ruiz as well. The giants would just beat him up on the outside. Some of the others would get into him first and back him up. Ali would just outjab him and move him about.

    Ruiz footwork not good enough to beat these guys...good fighter tho.

    I only give him a chance vs Frazier

    Tyson knocks him out

    Foreman knocks him out

    Ali Decision

    Lewis decision

    The Klitschkos decision him.


    Frazier is come forward and a smaller heavyweight with good engine. Frazier was 5'11 210lbs failry. But a very good heavyweight. Ruiz vs Frazier would be interesting. That's the only heavy from that list i see ruiz having a chance in. In an all out war.

    sometimes approx 205 lbs and smaller, then 210 lbs Frazier.

    I might gave him more chances to beat Ali from 70 ies than Frazier if he managed to close distance and take comfortable for him angles to start work.
    Lewis and Klitshkos most likely had KTFOed him.
    Foreman from 70 ies: KO him. Tyson from 1988 KO him and he will KO Tyson from 90 ies cold.

    Ruiz is a good fighter but nowhere near being the best of his own era. Not really a fair comparison to match him up with atgs. It would be better to put him against people like Povetkin, Bruno, Briggs, Peter, Berbick etc in fantasy matches.

    Well, Prime Pov most likely had UD win vs Ruiz Jr but he will not finish him at all. Prime Usyk too.
    If they had attempted to KO motivated Ruiz, they had lost fight via stoppage, I think. If aim for UD win, then yeah, they will win.

    The big problem for Ruiz is that he is leg lazy and sometimes not motivated and overall lazy.
    Otherwise guy does have fast hands, not bad chin and despite short for modern HW reach, might be dangerous and is skilled.
    Depends how lazy he will be.

    Why would you give him a chance against frazier?
    Yeah frazier is a come forward fighter, so what?
    Is ruiz strong enough to keep him at bay? Does he have the power to stop frazier on his way in? C'mon.

    Loses to all of them. You should have put fighters like Quarry, Lyle, Shavers, Bruno, Morrison... fighters he actually has a chance against.

    Can Ruiz do the Rope-a-dope against Foreman?

    This is a unpopular opinion, but I think Frazier and Tyson could be taco food due to their height and chin. Nobody can say that one of the fighters could stop b!ubber, because he hasn't been stopped yet, and Joshua threw the kitchen sink at him, and couldn't keep that disgusting blob down!
