ANDY RUIZ JR denied he is partying too much ahead of his rematch with Anthony Joshua in Saudi Arabia.
The underdog hero faces AJ on December 7 in the Middle East, but has spent time eating tacos off a Rolls-Royce, flying in a private jet and showing off his huge new villa since becoming world champion.
But the 29-year-old insists his mind is still focused on beating Joshua for a second time, and wants people to underestimate him again.
He said: “Everyone's gonna say this and that, but at the end of the day they don't know s*** but what they see on Instagram.
“We working. I want them to sleep on me again and think I'm just partying. We coming hard.”
Ruiz splashed the cash on a lavish party last month to celebrate his birthday ahead of turning 30 on September 11.
The unified champion’s birthday bash was complete with waitresses in lingerie, celebrity guests and a naked sushi girl.
It came soon after he spent the millions he earned from dethroning Joshua on a huge new mansion.
Ruiz showed off the huge complex which includes a pool, basketball court and a TREE HOUSE.
How much the Mexican-American paid for the property is not known but it is believed to be in California, where he has lived for most of his life.
Ruiz has also been spotted flying in private jets and has made countless appearances on chat shows.
The extravagant living caused heavyweight rival Tyson Fury to raise doubts about Ruiz’s focus heading into the AJ rematch - claiming “nobody” has seen the Snickers lover in the gym since his June upset win.
Fury said: "If Andy Ruiz comes in in-shape and has trained, then I think he does the same again.
