You broke the anti-hog ring by placing that Air Defense where a non-defensive building was supposed to be...
EDIT: Oh and the Wizard Towers too. Basically you jumbled it all up.
The concept of a "ring" base is having a core, followed by a ring of non-defensive structures and then having a ring of defensive structures. The problem there is that you have your wizard towers (and one archer tower) as well as 2 air defenses in the ring of non-defensive buildings hence leading in the hogs. It doesn't quite look like Ringus anymore though as there are some sides that have lots of defenses while there is also a gap of non defensive buildings along the top.
Peabak has a great video explanation to explain the "why" behind the ring on his thread that I would highly recommend to read, the position of the

Just to quote him from his thread: "Unless you understand ring bases do not move defences (however swapping is safe)."
Lol at op. Did the concept of the hog ring really shoot over your head?
Hm… this doesn't seems like the original Ringus base. Your base doesn't have a "ring of fluff". Instead of leading the hogs in a circle, the hogs aim for the core because the mortar was the closest structure from the wizard tower. These are the changes you should make: http://i.imgur.com/yyYASLb.png
Thanks for your help i fixed it. and to the trolls have a nice day lol.

Please please please please move out your builders huts from inside the walls.... It amazes me how many bases I see that does this. You don't need them there. What you are doing by placing them in those 2x2 gaps is basically screaming to the attacker exactly where your traps are and are not.
Edited: At least you did fix the hog ring...
Close, but you still have done a few things that weaken the base.
Anti-hog bases have several important features:
1. Double giant bombs. Two GBs together insta-kill hogs, denying the attacker the opportunity to heal his hogs with spells. Even with the new update, one GB will not insta-kill attacking hogs. While they are more effective than before, a good attacker can overcome them.
2. Spring traps placed between defenses. Hogs path between defenses in a straight line. If the spring traps are off to the side the hogs will miss them. Also spring traps placed in an opening between walls won't help unless there's a defense right behind the opening since hogs ignore walls.
3. Empty 4x2 spots around the base. Any empty 4x2 spot around the base is spot for a potential double GB. The less 4x2 spaces around the base you have, the easier it is for an attacker to know where the double GBs are and either trigger them on purpose with a few hogs or avoid the GBs entirely.

I've marked what's incorrect in red, what's correct in green, and a hog path in blue:
1. As mentioned before, two giant bombs together are important. You have two spots where the giant bombs are not doubled up circled in red. Double them up instead.
2. Some of your spring traps are in incorrect spots. The single spring trap with the red arrow is not placed at all where hogs will path. The blue line is where hogs will path from one defense to another at that spot, and you can see how they will miss the spring trap entirely. The two other red arrows show where the double spring traps are placed. While the spots you have chosen are between two defenses, they are still off to the side a bit, making them less efficient. The real Ringus base places them in spots directly between two defenses, leading to more sprung hogs on average.
3. By placing the extra builder's hut in the circled red spot, you are telling attackers, "Hey! There's no double GB here!" Move the builder's hut out of there and leave a spot that looks like an empty 4x2 to attackers.
EDIT: oh yeah, you also have a spawn hole between your gold collectors and the base (not marked). Close it by moving your gold collectors one unit closer towards the base.
For reference, here's the Ringus base directly taken from peabak's thread:
