    He straight up admitted that he didn't train properly for the fight. We fans have been ripped off.

    It just shows how much of a simpleton he is to admit something like that in front of millions of paying fans.

    Even Mike Tyson didn't say something like that after the Lewis fight.

    Nah come on man. Yes he was not in good shape, but to say they should withhold his purse, that's just ridiculous. And also stop with the "fans have been ripped off". Had the fight been fixed, ok, but so far that's not the case

    get a grip. he was in good enough shape to go 12 with the guy who was #1 just months ago. he messed up by leaving some things to chance, because of his lack of discipline. hes got the heart to die like a champ, he just aint got the heart to live like one.

    No, he turned up and went the 12 rounds, I've seen far more dubious displays and even worse post fight admissions.

    Ruiz took his smacking around and played his part in a fight that wasn't overly entertaining after midway.

    To even start thinking about fighters losing money because they didn't train correctly or didn't perform to a certain standard is unrealistic.
