Father Andy Ruiz Andy Ruiz Sr stated in an interview with IzquierdazoBox that Deontay Wilder offered them a "roughly" 70/30 share of the total fee, but they want 50/50. Wilder's next fight is expected to take place at the turn of September and October, but it is not yet known if Ruiz will be his opponent.
Wilder is a liar. He and his trainer want Andy to accept a ridiculous amount of money. But Andy is not some passer-by from the street. The only thing we ask for is a 50-50 split, we don't ask for anything else. 50-50 and we are ready to fight Deontay Wilder and give him a good beating. Wilder will get the same beating as Anthony Joshua," said Andy Ruiz Sr.
