    Before the fight I had Fury and Wilder number 1 and 2 so they stay the same, and I had Joshua 3rd now replaced by Ruiz but to be honest I'm no sure Ruiz could beat some of the names below him, like Pulev, Whyte and Parker.

    Ruiz is number one for now, he's got the belts. Joshua is down at number four with the two jerks sandwiched in between.

    It depends how logical one is.

    Really the ranking with the top 3 shouldn't change. The fury win over Wilder is different bc fury actually isa top level guy.

    Ruiz should be in top 10 if he wasn't ,I would put him around 6 ,from my 10.

    Joshua, Wilder, Fury, Usyk ,joyce all defeat Ruiz almost always.

    Lets not get it twisted he won but does that really get him AJ's spot? not unless he wins a rematch and that's going to be a REAL farce. ive seen really bad losses and this was like a walk in the park AJ took and just dropped the ball .and ranks up there with Wlad vs Sanders except Aj was actually in control of ending the fight and was well prepared so its worse.

    Ruiz will mysteriously be a top 3 guy ion here but that's how boxing fans work , not this one.

    The critical problem here is that many casuals on this forum right now think Ruiz Jr was lucky??? and that AJ lost because he was "flat".

    BULL****.

    Ruiz Jr was always that good, and he showed up perfectly last night. No luck at all.

    And it was the same AJ that showed up in all previous fights, but he got exposed against a fighter that took him to dark places for extended periods of time till AJ folded.

    Whyte and Wlad hurt Joshua... but couldn't/ did not capitalise to finish the Job.

    Ruiz Jr finished the job FOUR TIMES. He made Joshua pay each time he got into an exchange...

    Joshua should have got up and fought defensively but it's not his natural style.

    MYSTERIOUSLY??? And you’re right it does, and this is some of the most illogical BS I’ve ever heard. The guy you just spent years claiming would be a champion at least until 2021 and Would walk through Wilder, Fury, and Usyk got smacked around, dropped, and simply refused to continue in the end because he was too gassed to walk and had mentally accepted Ruiz’s superiority. If Joshua wins the rematch, sure it changes. But you might as well stop following boxing and just play around with your own deranged head canon if you’re gonna rate Joshua over him right now.

    Ruiz fought his fight Joshua did not .the rematch will show Aj is on another level,no way should Joshua had stand straight up in close after the knockdown.

    what actually saved Ruiz was his chin, those were lights out shots he was tagged with .

    Ruiz will not defeat Whyte ,Joshua ,Fury Usyk, ...he has a shot at wilder and Joyce due to styles,but hes no AJ,come 'on now its one fight. lol

    Joshua is a defensive first fighter its how he got out of round 6 against a FAR better fighter Klitschko.

    Relatively speaking I’m a newer fan yes, however I don’t believe rating a fighter over another fighter he just beat is a “newb” perspective.

    Will do. You’ve clearly tapped out of having a legitimate discussion relevant to the topics on this forum with me.
    Ah, Finally some good advice from you. Nice to see you have learned something from these last few weeks. Glad I could be a part of your growth and development.
