Ruiz: 'I was praying for Parker to beat Wilder'

Dmitriy Kel Dec. 28, 2023, 1:31 a.m.

Former Unified World Heavyweight Champion Andy Ruiz does not hide the fact that he was very happy about the victory Joseph Parker above Deontay Wilder.

“I really prayed for Joseph Parker, I wanted him to win. I wanted him to beat Wilder because Deontay talked a lot of crap. He said so many nasty things to everyone, saying that he was going to knock out this guy and that guy... I was very happy for Joseph,” Parker was quoted as saying by Boxing Scene.

Let us remember that on December 23 in Riyadh, Parker unexpectedly defeated Wilder by unanimous decision.
