    He lost a lot of weight and gained muscle mass, against whom would you like to see him? I would love to see him against Usyk.

    Agree. Winner vs Usyk or winner of Whyte/Pov II.

    Footwork makes the dream work

    Ruiz has smart but slow feet, given he is 5'7" he basically can't compete.

    Seriously, how awesome would an apocalyptic showdown of the four horsemen of the heavyweight division be? I'd say 3 doubleheaders to cover all the matchups. Imagine the box office draw, and what it would do for the sport!

    Summer 2021:
    joshua vs fury
    wilder vs ruiz

    Fall 2021:
    joshua vs wilder
    fury vs ruiz

    Winter 2021:
    joshua vs ruiz III
    wilder vs fury III

    Looks like all the weight he lost went to his legs.

    He probably always had strong legs. He was carrying around a lot of weight after all.

    LOOL. Everyone with Reynoso mysteriously gains significant muscle mass (Garcia, Alvarez, now fat boy)... Reynoso must have a whole chain of clen farms out there

    That said the pic looks kinda photos hopped.. And we all know Ruiz has his own team of secondary school photoshoppers

    Ruiz doesn't even need to be slim...just in shape. 250-265.

    He cannot fix his major flaws, slow feet, lack of reach.

    He knows....he's spent a career fighting taller men.

    Of course Ruiz will be on the hot sauce, like all top level boxers, but the muscularity in his legs is simply a byproduct of fat loss. I highly doubt that he has "significantly gained" muscle man.

    If Andy could maintain that shape indefinitely, he could make some REAL noise in the HW division in the next few years. Not just one and done, like with Joshua. It's all a matter of commitment and discipline with Ruiz.

    I think the Wilder fight or Kownacki fights would be great for him. We will see where he is at and whether he can go again based on those fights.

    Smoke and mirriors. Still a fat ass. I like how he looks hitting the heavy bag though. Fast, strong punches.

    Wilder should fight him but I bet he doesn't go anywhere near him. I don't see a fight that would help Wilder's stock more than this one. If he finishes Ruiz, he's right back into the spotlight by KO'ing the guy that KO'd AJ and that AJ thought to dangerous to try to KO.
