Nothing to do with ‘hype job’, and what constitutes ‘boxing fraternity’?? You boxed a lot of rounds yourself? This undoubtedly makes you an expert, right?
Well I’m pretty close to a good few fighters, past and present and the consensus wasn’t/isn’t he is a hype job, the problem is experience, he was fast tracked.
Anyone who has an iota of knowledge on boxing can ascertain where his shortcomings stem from, so don’t preach it’s some kind of secret sect of people ffs.... Ruiz has been boxing since he was 15, has hundreds of rounds of pedigree and is a tough fucker, downplaying his success means one thing in my eyes...
And Dubois has a wider defence than the autobahn, his footwork is also suspect. He can improve, undoubtedly, however, don’t make me laugh!
