    Ruiz was a disgrace the second fight.

    I travelled from England for the first and couldn’t believe what I was witnessing.

    Rumor has it he's becoming dangerously underweight.

    How slow are Ruiz's hands are what it boils down to for his chances of winning.
    In fight 2 Aj still couldn't deal with the fact Ruiz had quicker hands and could counter a jab with a hook. I still maintain if Ruiz had been in any kind of fight shape he would have given Joshua fits again..
    Now a few years later, Ruiz is inactive, Joshua has been well beaten.. Would be a decent fight for either of them to start getting back towards the top. I'd lean towards Joshua keeping it straight and long and running away from Ruiz again and maybe with some weight off Ruiz doesn't handle the big shots as well but I was wrong first time as well.
