Andy Ruiz Jr. has taken it upon himself to turn taunts into respect. The unbeaten Mexican heavyweight claims at first he was laughed at because of his weight, but now that he has worked on it and has shown that he can go far, people believe in him more. Ruiz (20-0, 14 KOs) faces Tor Hamer (21-2, 14 KOs) Saturday in Macao on the undercard of Manny Pacquiao-Brandon Rios. After tipping the scales at just south of 300 pounds in his pro debut over four and a half years ago, Ruiz has lost almost 80 pounds.
