    Peak Andy Ruiz vs Peak Deontay Wilder, who takes it?

    Two takes on this - Ruiz is a bad style for Wilder and can get on the inside and land combinations before Wilder can react. The speed difference would be even more noticeable than it was vs Fury. I also think that Ruiz has the chin to survive if Wilder does connect.

    On the other side Wilder is a tough guy with a lot of heart, and if he can take Ruiz combinations in the first half of the fight he can land the hail-mary that has bailed him out of so many losing situations in the later rounds.

    What are peoples thoughts on this?

    Wilder stops him. Ruiz has quick hands but very slow feet, small reach compared to Wilder, he would be smashed to the cleaners by Wilder. Sorry I forgot Ruiz is great because he beat Joshua. Reality he is maybe top 10 at a push. The version who turned up v Joshia in rematch isnt a top 30 heavyweight.
