seen it..... “I think that Ruiz hits much harder than Povetkin will. It was a pleasure being a part of the team and it will be a big attribute to me in getting this victory. It was fresh, new and it worked out for the both of us." Hunter believes he gave Ruiz a dose of Joshua’s timing and movement with his mimics. “[The sparring] definitely got heated, said Hunter. “Andy doesn’t hold back. He’s a very heavy-handed person. It wasn’t light sparring. He’s a champion, and he has to present himself that way, especially now. There’s heat with that. I needed him. He needed me. It was the right thing to do but once they reached out, it was a no brainer. “He will definitely be able to reach and touch Anthony Joshua. It was a good strategy for me as well because we are going to be in the same spirit, the same arena. I’ve known him for a long time, and I understand his road. I was also there for moral support, and it all went well. It was a cohesive, friend-and-family type situation. It seemed perfect.”
I doubt Ruiz hits harder let alone 'much harder' than Povetkin. But thanks for helping Ruiz burn a few calories so he didn't come in over 300lbs.
Joshua hits harder im sure... but he rarely used his right hand in the first fight. Hope he does it better tonight.
