    I'd give quite a few fighters a decent to fair chance at beating Ruiz, hell there's at least 4 that I'd immediately pick over him if the fights were made. He's nowhere near unbeatable, I mean, not even close to being that.....

    FFS he has already lost. Him beating Josh doesn't change the fact he is beatable. Wilder would probably put him out on his back.

    You made a dismissive comment because he lost to Parker, which was on the road after a shitty camp and competitive.

    I corrected you.

    Reading comprehension.

    wasn’t a sh*tty camp. That is completely false, I know that’s false.

    He was on the road but his camp was essentially the same as against AJ

    His head trainer was with Beterbiev and he didn’t have the same strength and conditioning coach (if any).

    He’s also looked excellent in his two fights in 2019 since making changes.

    I could point out how your boy Fury was almost flattened by an aging cruiserweight and use that as a metric for his potential, but I don’t reason in tunnel vision .

    why are you bringing up Fury? Have I ever argued he is unbeatable?

    It’s the same argument you’re trying to make for Ruiz. He lost by a point to Parker (who would soon be top 3) years ago, so any top 15 could beat him? NFW.

    well Andy Ruiz was barely top 15 when he iced AJ.

    of course any top 15 could grab their chance, it’s boxing

    If you think Adam Kownacki has better than a snowball’s chance in hell against Ruiz, I do not respect your boxing opinions.

    If there was was just one fight in the heavyweight division that i would pick to watch over all the other possibilities and after the AJ- Ruiz rematch, it would be a rematch of Parker vs Ruiz. I am not as convinced as some on here that Parker won that first fight. And neither is Ruiz, and i bet he would make the next fight a war like no other. Bring it on I say and may only the best m,an win.

    this would be a firecracker of a fight. i think usyk has the skills to pull off the win, but i also see andy landing in an exchange and hurting usyk bad. would love to see this one.
