Intro
Last week Saturday in Saudi Arabia, Andy Ruiz jr, nicknamed ‘The Destroyer’, tried desperately to carry his 20 stone frame around the ring during his defeat to Anthony Joshua.
The Mexican champion, who knocked AJ down four times in New York six months ago, has admitted he ‘ate everything’ and did not train as hard as he could.
While Speaking to TMZ Sports, Ruiz explained further on his poor performance.
“I think I ate everything… EVERYTHING… that’s why I gained so much weight.
“I was having too much fun, I was celebrating too much.
“Even out of shape, even the way that I was training back and forth (between Mexico and California) … f******, I did pretty good, dude! I did pretty good!
“But, I wish I had taken it more serious.”
Ruiz wants a third fight. He insists he will train properly if given another shot at Joshua.
He added:
“For the third fight, I’m going to give it all I got! I want those belts back!”
After dethroning Britain’s Anthony Joshua in June, Ruiz and his wife showcased two of his four belts atop a borrowed Rolls-Royce to over one-third of the town’s 17500 population.
