ANDY RUIZ JR has once again shown off his incredible body transformation with hulking leg muscles.
The Mexican-American has not fought since December 2019, when he lost an immediate rematch against Anthony Joshua.
But he is now in line for a comeback, 16-months on with a shock pay-per-view fight against Chris Arreola.
And he appears to be in the shape of his life, with another photo showing Ruiz trimmer and more toned than ever.
Fans highlighted the definition in his quads, joking he is not skipping leg day as he bids to get back into title contention.
One said: “If Andy maintains that discipline in the gym we will see him champion again.”
Another said: “Andy Ruiz isn’t skipping leg day.”

Ruiz, 31, shot to fame when he stepped in for drug cheat Jarrell Miller, 32, and challenged Joshua, 31, in June 2019.
He pulled off a stunning upset, dropping AJ four times in New York on the way to a seventh round stoppage.
But Ruiz ballooned up to 20STONE for the rematch in Saudi Arabia six months later and laboured to a points loss over 12-rounds.
Since then, he has switched training camps and linked up with Canelo Alvarez’s esteemed coach Eddy Reynoso in their adopted San Diego base.
And Ruiz appears to be reaping the rewards after dramatically altering his physique.
The man who awaits him, Arreola, 40, was once knocked out by ex-WBC king Deontay Wilder in 2016.
The American has only fought three times since that defeat, with his current record standing at 38–6–1 with two no-contests.
Like Ruiz, Arreola has not been seen since December 2019, in a losing effort against Adam Kownacki.
But he has long been touted as Ruiz’s comeback opponent, with discussions progressing for over a year.
