He looks to be in tremendous shape. Maybe it's just that I've never noticed, but his leg muscles show very nice definition. Look like he's trying to prove his win wasn't fluke and given himself the best chance to win. If he wins the rematch, he set's himself up for life, his kids and his grand kids. It's nice too see a fighter make the most of the biggest opportunity of their career.

The reverse Buster. I usually factor "drastic appearance change" as a negative to bet on, but I heard Joshua shed some dope gut as well so it's a wash.

There was an interview last week where he was asked the question about how much weight he lost. He said 3lbs and showed his belly.

I think Ruiz will come in lighter, but not sure it'll be as dramatic as people think... Probably beat for him to be heavy, makes him more durable.

This has been my Thought every time the weight loss is brought up.....Lose to Much and i dont think he will be able to Walk through the Bombs he did he in the first fight....

Yeah, looking at Ruiz in a single photo might be a bit misleading. I’d be surprised if Ruiz wasn’t still well North of 250 on fight night. Which isn’t to say he won’t be in optimum shape for this fight.

I'm thinking if I were walking around 24/7 with a 60 pound weight vest, my legs would be impressive also.

From the looks of him recently, these were just some flattering angles or he put weight back on.

What a revolting development. This has certainly taken some shine off this fight, at least for me. Andy has given himself almost no chance :(

From the weigh in, Andy looks like he's just happy to be there. I think he's doing a Chino Maidana and cashing out on this fight.

kinda get the vibe that he knows he overachieved in the first fight. either that or hes been paid "step aside" money to flop... never know in this sport these days

In Ruiz's defense, he was a lot like this during the first fight. I think he's just the stereotypical, 'Jolly Fat Guy', that's just who he is.

Ruiz is getting pasted. He had a full camp and came in bigger. He clearly partied it up. Hes never been known as big on training.

Ruiz will get a fight with wilder next year win or lose. Hes set
