“One is tall and thin, the other is short and stocky. Physical data will be on Wilder's side, and as he gets older, he makes better use of his physical abilities. Ruiz, on the other hand, seems to think more in the ring and has more experience in tough fights. Both can hit very hard, so it will be an exciting fight. But Andy's experience can make a difference and I'm leaning more towards it," Hunter said.
Ruiz also received an invitation to a similar fight from the IBF, and in this case, Filip Hrgovic (15-0, 12 KOs) could become his opponent. But given that Ruiz and Wilder are boxing under the auspices of Al Haymon, it seems more than likely that everything will end up with a confrontation between the Destroyer and the Bronze Bomber.
