Whyte was set to face Alexander Povetkin on May 2nd at the Manchester arena. However, the fight was called off due to the pandemic. Ruiz does not have a fight planned as of now, with several top boxers itching at the chance of facing Ruiz.

?Let?s be honest, we offered Ruiz $5 million to fight me in America, in his hometown. If he?s turning down that kind of money to fight me ? and these guys all say I?m garbage. You know, he beat Joshua. He should take a fight with me for $5 million, easy. I think that?s what he got paid to fight Joshua the first time for the world titles. You just lost and you?re getting paid a lot of money to fight in America. I said, ?I?ll come to America and fight.? If you don?t wanna take it, then, you know, um, these guys, they say a lot of things about me. When it comes down to it, they know I?m a real, old-school dog. I will come to fight. I don?t play no games.??Said Whyte
