With the heavyweight division housing several top fighters a fight with Deontay would make sense.

Andy Ruiz Jr. vs Deontay Wilder?

Given that both fighters are coming off a loss this would be another mega-fight that could propel both fighters towards a title shot. Moreover, this is an interesting match up. Ruiz is used to being the underdog, his technical abilities, raw strength, and surprisingly fast movement makes him a formidable opponent. On the other hand, Deontay who is 5 inches taller and much lighter could annihilate Ruiz jr.

Besides that Deontay Wilder was eager to fight Andy Ruiz Jr when Ruiz won the titles from Anthony Joshua. However, Ruiz lost the rematch against Joshua, losing all these titles. After this loss, Wilder criticized Ruiz for not taking the rematch seriously after becoming a global superstar. Well, now Wilder has lost his first fight and Ruiz had a classy response to Wilder’s criticism.
