Wlads outside even at that age is too strong for Ruiz. Wlad UD
So let me get this straight....... The WK who barely got by the full time janitor jennings...........could not let his hands go against a featherfist who just flickered 4.8 jabs a round at him for 12.......and a even older version was starched by the green Bodybuilder..... I always knew that this board is populated by absolute muppets but this is cake....... WK had not won a fight in years when he faced AJ...gassed badly and flopped around like a fish out of water........but but but he knocked down the stiff Bodybuilder, guess what, Ruiz knocked the more seasoned AJ the F out and made him quit. The WK version who faced AJ was shot beyond shot.......Ruiz just would walk him down , putting WK on a pace he is not used too, he would never let his hands go afraid to get countered so no knock down and he will fold between 6 and 7 standing still due to bodyshots eating flush combos upstairs...... Many , many fighters would have beaten that WK, no doubt, just the delusional Euro jock riders praise this as some magnificent win........if WK had ANY juice left he would have continued fighting but even a blind man can see that he was beyond well done, stick a fork in him.
Whelp, after the Klitschko template was employed to great effect against Ruiz in the rematch, the guys picking Ruiz over Wlad are looking kind of silly right now
Wlad gets a decision. Can't see it any other way tbh. After seeing him look so helpless against AJ, can see Wlad doing what he does best and gets the win. Ruiz would huff and puff but he isn't blowing Wlad down!
Not me. Two reasons why - 1. Andy is dangerous in the clinch. He's slippery , knows how to get his hands free and is fast enough to get damage in before and after he gets clinched. 2. Klitschko hasn't the back-foot game to consistently glide around the ring while pumping a jab like Joshua did. He'll rely on too much clinching rather than movement , that gives Ruiz the advantage. I base this argument on reality and not from a fantasy based perception. You can see down bellow that Klitschko held more in just two rounds against Mormeck than AJ did over 12 rounds.

He landed a heap of body shots. He would have landed head shots too like the first but Joshua was a lot more reactive this time.
I think Ruiz is beatable when you fight a controlled disciplined fight. Parker and Joshusa (although Ruiz was out of shape). did it. Pime Wlad was the expert of these kind of fights. I agree with Fury.
