Andy Ruiz Wins Decision Against Luis Ortiz, Wants Deontay Wilder Next
ANDY RUIZ JR.
“Everyone was doubting me, but I worked so hard for this fight. Ortiz is a warrior who hits hard. I did a beautiful job boxing him around. I showed more class than I usually do just coming forward.
“It was a difficult fight. I was waiting for him to load up and countering him when he did. It was a blessing we were able to be successful.
“I want to fight at least three or four times a year. I’m hungry and I want to be champion again and bring that belt back to Mexico.
“If Deontay Wins in October, me and him are with the same management and we can make this fight happen. Let’s do it. Let’s get it on.”
LUIS ORTIZ
“I told you I was going to be a warrior and that’s what I did. This is Cuba vs. Mexico. This is what I live for.
“To everyone who said that I’m old, I gave you a war today. There are always surprises in boxing, and that’s what you got if you didn’t think I’d give it my all.
“I’d want a rematch. The eye wasn’t a problem for me. Do you think I’m done after the way I fought? Do the people think I’m done? I don’t think so.”
DEONTAY WILDER
“Deontay Wilder is back and I’m always looking for great exciting fights for the fans. If Andy Ruiz Jr. is what’s next, then I’m ready to get it on.”
