His massive weight loss is the big "unknown". You'd have to assume it has to increase Ruiz's chances as hes bucked the trend of a lifetime by coming into this fight in the best shape of his career. And then there's the other school of thought courtesy of Roy Jones Jr who says he might not be able to take a punch as well, whilst saying that Ruiz should retain his punching power.
