    He'll land enough punches cleanly that your opinion on his power would be irrelevant.

    You probably thought AJ could walk through Usyk as well.

    Beterbievs footwork and boxing ability is hilariously superior to Ruiz despite the size difference

    He will land on Bivol but he can't outbox Bivol because Bivol won't let him set his feet

    He has the handspeed to counter Bivol who would be in punching range due to his height and reach.

    Shouldn't this be in the Classic Forum? Or is Andy Ruiz still allegedly an active pugilist?

    Should be in lounge, Jake Paul is not a legit boxer, he even lost to a novice.

    Usyk has more reach and power than Bivol and hurt AJ at the end of their first fight, Ruiz has quicker hands than AJ, completely silly comparison.

    Are you comparing Bivol fighting at heavyweight to Usyk fighting at heavyweight?!

    And what do you think will happen when a 250lb HW is landing on Bivol for 12 rounds? Nothing right? because Bivol has great feet or something, which will make him immune to a Hw's punches. Bivol is a small LHW, yet you think he will beat Andy Ruiz at HW, and that he will stop Ruiz coming forward, when he can't even do that in his own division. Your analysis makes no sense at all, and is ridiculous. Bivol beats Andy Ruiz.. lol.

    Like I said, you never expected Usyk to be able to stop AJ walking through him neither.

    You have no idea what i expected and comparing Usyks punching power to Bivol is laughable. He has 50lbs more muscle, and a much bigger frame.

    Ruiz is an obese light heavyweight. I wouldn't be surprised if Beterbiev hit as hard. He doesn't need to stop Ruiz from walking him down, he can dance around Ruiz all night popping that jab and those fast counters. Ruiz has fast hands but slow feet and can't cut the ring.

    Roy Jones has a weak chin and ate shots from John Ruiz, it's definitely possible. I can't write Bivol off here.

    You never expected him to have enough power to stop AJ walking through him.

    Bivol and Ruiz will never fight. But if they did, the notion that Ruiz just walks right through Bivol and knocks him out is so ridiculous I can only assume youre trolling.

    Size is am advantage, bthe extra 2 inches Ruiz has in height isnt enough to overcome the disparity in skill here. Ruiz being grossly overweight doesnt help him beat Bivol neither.

    Bivol will land every punch he throws and Ruoz wont be able to just walk through that.

    You were wrong about Usyk, and you'd be wrong about this also.

    Andy has far more power than John Ruiz and faster hands, he also hits harder than Tarver did there`s no way Jones could have taken the punches that stopped AJ.

    Ruiz isn`t easy to hit unless he`s in a brawl, he has a decent guard.
