Andy Ruiz in talks for sponsorship, ‘unlimited’ Snickers, after Anthony Joshua upset

Andy Ruiz Jr. shocked the world when he upset Anthony Joshua this past weekend, and the portly Mexican-American dedicated his victory to all his “fat boys” that routinely get overlooked because of their appearance.

Ruiz, who has always been a talented and respectable boxer, became an overnight sensation in the mainstream media after winning the heavyweight titles. He also got a care package from Snickers, a product he’s always wanted to be involved with.

“My dad always gave me one of these when I was a little kid so maybe that’s why I’m a little chubby, too,” Ruiz joked in an appearance on FOX.
