Andy Ruiz believes that Jake Paul has a better chance of defeating Anthony Joshua than longtime 41-year-old Andre Ward.
Although Ward (32-0, 16 COs) is an Olympic gold medal in 2004 and the former world champion with two divisions, he was never a big puncher as Paul is now. Ward was more of a Fencer fighter who held and wrestled a lot with his opponents.
“Everyone wants to fight against Anthony Joshua because of the blueprint he has now,” Andy Ruiz said Fighting typeAnd respond to Andre Ward and Jake Paul who both want to fight against Joshua. “I feel like everyone thinks they can hit him.”
A megafight’s financial rewards
It’s not just that everyone thinks they can beat Joshua. These are the millions they would get to fight against him. Ruiz needs to know. He fought Joshua twice and earned $ 10 million from those fights.
The money that Jake Paul and Andre Ward would fight would probably be much more, because there would be much more interest than when Ruiz first fought him. Joshua will get a career high against Paul because of his massive succession on social media.
“He can no longer take hits (shots), but he is still a dangerous fighter. He is a heavyweight, “Ruiz says of Joshua. “I don’t know of Andre Ward fighting Anthony Joshua. I think it’s a hard fight. Jake Paul, I think it’s actually a little better. ‘
Paul’s power threaten Anthony Joshua
Ward was never a big puncher during his career at 168 or 175. He will become 42 in February. He is too old, small and inactive for him to have a better chance of beating Joshua than 28-year-old Jake. Some of the shots that Paul ended up on Mike Tyson, Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Ryan Bourland would face Joshua. Most AJ will have to fear in a battle with Andre Ward to embrace submission.
“Shout to Jake Paul, no one does it like him. Probably, because he was active, he is bigger, he is longer, and he is a natural heavyweight, “Ruiz said when asked if he gave him a better chance to beat Joshua than Andre Ward.
Ruiz is correct about Paul. He is younger, bigger and stronger than Ward. He has a real chance of beating Joshua. Most importantly, he has the following on social media to make a mega-snap with him. Ward was not a big name during his career. When he returns now, there are not enough fans who remember him for a match against Joshua to bring large numbers to PPV or Netflix.
