British boxer Dillian Whyte enjoys winding up rival heavyweights and has had a crack at Andy Ruiz Jr.
British boxer Dillian Whyte has been humiliating heavyweight rival Andy Ruiz over his weight issues.
With Ruiz's prospective trainer Teddy Atlas claiming the Mexican's eating habits were like that of a "drug abuser", Whyte has chimed in with some body blows to the former world champion.
He started by tweeting a video of an obese man struggling to get out of a sports car but moving quickly when a hamburger was placed in front of him. Whyte captioned it: "You need to chill bro, chill champ, chill" with the hashtags #fastcars #fastfood, a hit on Ruiz's liking for both.
@andy_destroyer1 you need to chill bro chill champ chill #FASTCARS #AND #FASTFOOD
Whyte then taunted Ruiz by posting a video of another obese man doing some dance moves, saying: " Stick to boxing brother, leave the dancing alone." His hastag this time of #Andythecakedestroyer was a play on Ruiz's "Destroyer" fighting nickname.
But this wasn't a one way fight and Ruiz came back with a merciless reply.
He found a video of Whyte being knocked senseless by fellow British heavyweight Anthony Joshua, telling his teaser: "Bro you still running your mouth? Hold this L to your forehead. Thank you for showing us the Stanky Leg."
Ruiz is yet to announce his plans following his December loss to Joshua. He went 12 rounds with Joshua in Saudi Arabia but lost a unanimous points decision.
That was in stark contrast to his exhilarating seventh round knock out of Joshua in their first fight in New York last June where Ruiz became Mexico's first heavyweight world champion in one of the division's biggest upsets.
Andy Ruiz Jr turned up in poor shape for his world title rematch with Anthony Joshua and was soundly beaten on points.
Whyte is currently in Portugal training for his scheduled May 2 fight with Russian Alexander Povetkin in Manchester that is under threat of being postponed because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Whyte drove 40 hours from Britain to his training camp base.
"The mindset is my date is still going ahead, so I'm training," Whyte said, on an Instagram live video
"I had to drive 40 hours non-stop from my house straight to here. I drove because I brought the dogs with me, so I didn't want to fly.
"It's very important to show people in this time that it's important to train, to get on with life the best you can in these kinds of situations, because it is easy to panic and just shut down. I'm just trying to show as much positivity as I can.
"It's quiet but there's food on the shelves and I have a good set-up here."
