Andy Ruiz Jr. Reveals His Dream of Becoming a Promoter

Published 02/24/2021, 12:12 AM EST

Andy Ruiz Jr. is a top-graded heavyweight of the modern boxing era. He took the boxing world by storm in the 2019 summer after finishing the Brit legend, Anthony Joshua. He not only became an overnight star but also etched the title of first Mexican heavyweight champion.

As intimidating as he is inside the squared circle, Ruiz Jr. is equally humble outside the sport. He loves giving it back to the sport and his country Mexico in any way possible. Moreover, he wishes to continue the same for a long time.

In a chat with The Fighter’s Voice, the ‘Destroyer’ spilled some beans on becoming a promoter in the future and helping Mexican fighters reach a suitable platform.

He said, “Yes, that’s what I want to do. I want to get fighters from Mexico because there’s a lot of promoters here that don’t really do things right. Because the fighters over here don’t speak English and all that. So I want to help the fighters out.

“I want to make a promotion company where we could all work, you know,”

Ruiz Jr. believes there are promoters in bulk in his country, but they do not help the fighters reach the ultimate level. He wishes to get all of those hard-working boxers under one roof and create a promotional company of his own to help these fighters reach where they’re destined to.
