Andy Ruiz jr. Shows his hand speed as he practices with his coach this week, and indicates a possible return to the ring. Ruiz will turn on September 11, next week, and he is in a position where he has to make something happen in his career before he ages.
An audition for Alalshikh?
The intensity that Ruiz jr. Shown in his workout indicates that he is serious about his training. In some ways, It looks like an audition by him to be selected by Turki Alalshikh For another of his well -paid events after his disappointing performance last year.
The video clip of Ruiz jr. Training on Mitts has been overwhelmingly criticized by fans online, who consider him not his career after earning $ 10 million Of his two battles against Anthony Joshua in 2019. They consider the massive windfall Ruiz Jr. Made against AJ, and his hunger, motivation and performances have decreased. Ruiz has only fought only three times since 2019.
Could Ruiz have saved the bottom map?
Miller would be a good addition to the bottom of Canelo Alvarez against Terence Crawford to give our fans a more attractive fighter than the current fighters on the map. There are minimal buzzing online of fans about the undercard fights. Of course, it’s too late to add Ruiz to the map, but he would have been ideal for the co-function against a high-ranking contender such as Jared Anderson, Martin Bakole or Richard Torrez Jr.
It is doubtful whether Turki will be interested in Ruiz on August 3, 2024 after his last performance against Jarrell Miller. After the non-effort of Ruiz, one cannot blame Turki if he prefers not to go off the road again. Still, Ruiz would have been a nice addition to the Canelo Crawford card.
Former IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion Ruiz (35-2-1, 22 COs) has been inactive for the past 13 months since fighting to a controversial majority stretch of 12 round against Miller at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles.
