Did Andy Ruiz Jr. Really Lose Weight? New Training Footage Shows the Reality – EssentiallySports

Former unified heavyweight champion of the world, Andy Ruiz Jr., has been in the news for his incredible weight-loss. However, recent training footage has shed light on the reality of the former champion. So has Destroyer Ruiz Jr. really lost weight?

When Ruiz Jr. lost to Anthony Joshua in December 2019 in the rematch, he got heavy criticism for his overweight frame and his lack of discipline. Moreover, his former coaches also revealed the indiscipline that the heavyweight showed.

However, he seemed to have turned a corner when footage revealed his impressive weight loss. Andy Ruiz Jr. signed with Eddie Reynoso and embarked upon on an inspiring weight loss journey, or so it seemed. The initial footage even gave a glimpse of the heavyweights abs.

Recent footage has suggested otherwise. A video that went viral showed Ruiz Jr. training with Ryan Garcia, Canelo Alvarez, and the team. He was hitting the heavy-bag while the others were getting in their workout. However, Ruiz Jr. didnt seem to be as lean as before.

Ruiz Jr. certainly did not look overweight as he did in the Joshua rematch. Therefore, fans can safely say that he has lost some weight and got back in shape. But, it may not be as big a transformation as was initially assumed.

Ruiz J. did not fight in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, recent training has suggested that the former champion is ready to make his mark on the heavyweight division again. Although, he would need a worthy opponent for that.

Reports suggest that his next fight could be the same opponent he would have faced in 2020. Mike Coppinger from the Athletic reported that the Chris Arreola fight is still on. Moreover, he gave an insight into the timeline, suggesting that Destroyer could return in the spring.

Therefore, come the spring, we will find out whether the former champion has actually lost weight. However, one thing is for sure, Andy Ruiz Jr. will go into the fight in better shape than his outing at Clash On The Dunes.

What do you make of Andy Ruiz Jrs weight loss? Do you think the former champion has actually lost weight?
