At the weekend in Los Angeles (USA), the former unified heavyweight champion American-Mexican Andy “The Destroyer” Ruiz Jr. (34-2, 22 KOs) will close the next downtime – in the WBC eliminator he will fight with Cuban veteran Luis “King Kong” Ortiz (33-2, 28 KOs).
Ruiz is revered as one of the most talented boxers of this generation, who never managed to fully open up due to his indiscipline.
Therefore, it is not surprising that on the eve of the fight with Ortiz, Ruiz was asked about his weight.
Answer ex-champion: “I don’t have any special strict diet. Yesterday, for example, we ate beans. In general, I do everything that I have to do. I eat well, I do not deny myself anything. In fact, the most important thing is not food, but how you plow in the hall. There, the weight immediately returns to normal, and you can calmly focus only on the fight itself.
The fighter claims that he now weighs “a little over 118 kg. About the same weight. which I had in my first fight with Anthony Joshua. But I feel even better than then. I feel great.”
