Ruiz, who missed a year on May 1, will return to action at home, in a fight against the undefeated fighter.
This match will mark Ruiz's return to Mexico after 12 years. Since 2010, he has not fought in Mexico City.
With a professional record of 34-2, 22 of them by knockout wins, Andy Ruiz wants to return to the elite of world boxing, just as he did when he beat Anthony Joshua.
On June 1, 2019, Andy Ruiz shocked the world at Madison Square Garden in New York when he defeated Joshua and claimed the WBA, WBO and IBF titles from him.
In a rematch at Diriyah half a year later Ruiz lost, but The Destroyer had expressed his desire to be world champions again.
