Gustavo Adrián Ruelas Aguilar (born March 18, 1991 in Fontana, California) is a Mexican-American soccer player .
Ruelas turned pro in 1988 and in 1993 challenged WBC Super Featherweight Title holder Azumah Nelson, losing a close majority decision.
In the early 1980s as the promoter of the family he started a company named Ten Goose Boxing (named after the ten siblings) handling but not always promoting Michael Nunn, Terry Norris and the Ruelas brothers, Gabriel and Rafael.
Mickey Duff and Jarvis Astaire provided Frank Bruno for a non-title fight with Ray Mercer, as well as Billy Schwer for the IBF lightweight title challenge against Rafael Ruelas.
Shortly after a TKO in 10 over the popular Jorge Páez in 1992, Ruelas earned a shot at IBF Lightweight Title Freddie Pendleton, overcoming an early knockdown and winning by unanimous decision.

Ruelas never recaptured his lost glory, winning fights over limited competition, including a decision over journeyman Livingstone Bramble, to set up a fight with the hard punching Kostya Tszyu in 1998.
