    Had Ruiz fought Wilder instead of AJ, who would have won?

    Maybe a wild Scrappy match , but I've a feeling that Wilder would drop him early ,as AJ did , but Ruiz end s up getting battered rather than coming back .
    Wilder by 4 th round ko .

    Wilder by decision. Wilder might drop Ruiz once or twice, but I don't see Wilder being able to stop him.

    Great fight, two bangers and Ruiz has great hand speed, I feel it would be epic but Wilder`s power may be too much.

    Ruiz pastes him. Wilder's footwork sucks balls so Ruiz is going to get right in his face and let those combos rip. I'm not sure if Wilder's power is going to bail him out here. Ruiz KO's him and then eats a giant McMeal with all the fries in the joint, to celebrate. Dustin Nichols watches on TV and has a small tear of pride roll down his cheek.

    Ruiz destroys wilder! Fury had wilder hurt multiple times but was scared to take risks!

    Ruiz will counter wilder as he lunges in and finish him.

    RUIZ IS UNDERRATED!!!

    Wilder would KO him in a typical Wilder fashion.

    I think that we have to make Wilder the clear favorite here.

    Yes Ruiz beat Joshua, but that is Joshua's problem, not Wilder's!

    Ruiz would easily take care of the big flailing goof. This would be a one sided mismatch.

    Yes


    People seem to forget how lacking Wilder is in skills and how advanced Ruiz’s inside KO game is

    Short fighter that bores his way inside the reach of his taller opponent and busts him up with crisp, short inside HARD combo shots


    Fury is still my #1 given his size and skills, but Ruizis now a solid #2

    Dunno about before but right now I'd back Ruiz, he's already slain one dragon and can do it again.
