The fans are eager for Andy ‘The Destroyer’ Ruiz Jr. to dust off his gloves finally. However, Ruiz has set his sights on a 2024 comeback. Even though the former unified heavyweight champion has been out of the ring for a while, the fire still burns. Ruiz’s last two wins over Chris Arreola and Luis Ortiz also couldn’t satisfy some hardcore boxing fans after the grueling Anthony Joshua rematch.

However, fans want to see him back in the big leagues. A planned WBC eliminator against Deontay Wilder also fell through due to financial disagreements. So, currently, Ruiz Jr. has no finalized date or an opponent for his comeback fight, and there hasn’t been any announcement regarding his next fight as well. Due to this, the IBHOF (International Boxing Hall of Fame) elector has raised concerns about his boxing career.

Rick Glaser wishes to see Andy Ruiz Jr. back in the ring

Andy Ruiz Jr’s career went a bit downhill, ever since he was defeated by Anthony Joshua in 2019. Interestingly, it was also Anthony Joshua’s ‘Day of Reckoning’ card in 2023, when Ruiz Jr. assured his fans of his return. As per the TNT Sports, he said, “I need to get ready. I feel really good. In 2024, we’re coming back. I had surgery on my right shoulder, so I already had two months preparing and recovering. I need two more months and I’ll be ready to go next year.”

Well, the two months are over and there are still no updates about his comeback fight. But fans could soon expect it, since he also added, “I need to check out all the opponents and need to get ready. In 2024 is when it’s going to go down.” But as it turns out, one of his viewers seems to have lost patience and wants him to announce his next showdown soon. Rick Glaser believes that Ruiz Jr. must hurry up and announce his next fight because it’s already been 19 months since he’s fought.

Glaser wrote, “Andy Ruiz, Jr will be 35 this year, hasn’t fought in 19 months, & nothing scheduled. He’s wasting his career.” Well, he could try for a fight against Deontay Wilder, especially after his shocking defeat against Joseph Parker. It could also help generate a lot of hype about his return back to the squared circle. Andy seems to have fully recovered from his injury too.

‘Destroyer’ will not be destroyed

Andy Ruiz Jr. shared a video on social media back in November 2023, documenting a successful surgery for a torn rotator cuff performed by Dr. Steve Mora. In that video, Ruiz Jr. expressed gratitude to his fans for their patience during recovery, assuring them this is just a “speed bump” on his road back to glory.
