Turns out this story originates from a supposed quote by Peter Fury, which he has confirmed is fake. Also that story was posted on a parody John Fury twitter account

To be fair it's a fairly believable story.

At the end of the day it’s a excuse and he still got humiliated

Concussion or not I can see how getting beat up in sparring would simply add to the fear that things might go dreadfully wrong on fight night... the pressure's gonna be immense already and that anxiety and doubt worming into your brain... Who knows? The ish you're most scared of has a funny way of coming true as often as not. I ain't gonna try and play amateur psychiatrist, but I suffered a coupla panic attacks in my younger days like some other on here... can't really explain it, the circumstances were weird but far from the scariest shit I've been in, so you just don't know. What I can say is that a full blown panic attack with hyperventilating an all makes you feel high as fuck and weak and shaky as a kitten when it's done. If that is what happened no way in hell should he have been trying to fight.

Not debating the panic attack as the main thing. For me it has to be more than panic attack. But I just don’t want all these rumours to ruin it for Ruiz. Was he concussed weeks beforehand? If so then I can buy the panic attack theory. But to just say he had panic attacks because he was fighting in a foreign country in front of 19,000 people (7,000 who are from UK) just doesn’t do it for me. Not when he has been fighting in front of 90k on a regular basis.

And the excuse about fighting in America been this whole different level thing is even more laughable.

No excuses in the fight game! Excuses are for losers.

It was a troll online who wanted some attention and put together a fairly believable story.
