Haven't seen a more one sided style matchup at the top level in ages. Ruiz is literally made for Wilder, stylistically. At least with fury he can try to move his head to get past the jab and the power is not a big threat but wilder is a sharpshooter from range, one mistake and its over and Ruiz doesn't have the footspeed to bridge the gap the way a Mike Tyson would
So is Ortiz and look what happened. Difference is, Ruiz isn't middle aged, hits harder, has a better chin and stamina.
No way, Ruiz has a better guard than anyone Wilder has faced he has power and fast hands and is good at walking fighters down and getting inside where he would destroy Wilder`s body, he also has a good chin and stays calm using brilliant counters v AJ when he got to his feet, if Wilder windmills he`ll be destroyed.
I don't want to see Deontay risking his life against that ferocious blob. Hopefully, when Ruiz finally disposes of that primma donna bodybuilder Joshua. Al Haymon and the bomb squad can convince him to drop a couple of those shiny belts, so the bronze bomber can add them to his priceless collection. Lol
Other way round actually. Wilder would get smashed to pieces by Ruiz unless fight fixing is involved.
Ortiz hits harder than Ruiz. AJ's chin just REAAAALLY bad, that's why Ruiz is seen as a killer. Remember Ruiz couldn't put a dent in Liakovich or Parker.
I hope they fight someday. Wouldn’t surprise me if Wilder KOd Andy but I wouldn’t put any money on this fight. It wouldn’t surprise me if Ruiz KOd Wilder. I still want to see Wilder AJ but it’s not the superfight it once was and I doubt there is enough money anymore to make this the fight it once was. Fury is going to beat Wilder and Ruiz is will probably win the rematch.
Ruiz style is all wrong for wilder. I’d bet ruiz, no stress, and collect my money. Easy day. Styles make fights. Mike hunter and fury would be tough fights for ruiz.
Ruiz is a totally diff fighter then he was earlier in his career. Even from the Parker fight to now he’s a diff fighter. That’s why people who knew we’re confident he was beating Joshua.
Which Wilder is this? Is this the guy who gets outboxed for six rounds and lands a hail mary punch every time. Getting outboxed by guys like Szpilka, Washington and Fury is not the same thing as Ruiz landing a 12 punch combination to the skull. This will be one-sided, alright.
I dont gamble. Thank you. NEVER, I dont consider it intelligent. Let alone all my money, when I have seen mathysse refusing to get up from the ground vs postol when he received the mother of all beatings vs provodnikov and he was there like if nothing happened. Or I have seen walters saying "no mas" after 2 punches from lomo, 2 punches, no meaningful punishment at all. I have seen so many weird things to put all my money in a single boxing match. Imho the amount of fixed fights is not negligible. Saying that, had I to chose, I would put my money on wilder. Sure.
Wilder has to survive a better prepared 59 year old Grandpa Kong in the rematch first and Ruiz has to KTFO a fully Roided version of Joshua first in their rematch!
