Andy Ruiz Jr. Surprises With Unexpected Message to Jake and Logan Paul

Andy Ruiz Jr aka, The Destroyer has been the talk of the town since he has resumed his training. After 2019, when he was defeated by the British star Anthony Joshua, the boxer has not been a part of too many matches. But, with his new fit and trimmed look, he might be returning to the ring soon.

In a recent interview with ESNEWS, the boxer spilled some beans about fellow boxer Jake Paul. Andy Ruiz Jr says, “People think it’s a game, it’s not. That’s why I give credit to Jake Paul too.

Having said that, Ruiz Jr also mentions that he has a lot of respect for any fighter out there. Because they are risking their lives to feed their family.
