    Joshua gets up, turns back to referee, walks to corner, lays on ropes...

    Referee "Hey, this ain't Break Time!!"

    lmao

    He would have been knocked out if the ref. had allowed him to continue after the 4th K.D.

    Yes, should have let him go out on his shield. Refs stop the action WAY too soon these days.

    Anthony Joshua has quit on his stool against a challenger in a very embarrassing and disgraceful manner. Fact. His stock should now be lower than Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilders

    I hate saying a fighter quit, any fighter and AJ has gone out and fought top competition unlike some other guys but his body language in that corner and the way he stayed in the corner told the ref all he needed to know. AJ wanted out.

    You keep repeating your self without addressing any points. Please stop wasting my time, if you're incapable of discussing things properly.

    You're in the minority that think he didn't quit.

    Avoiding more questions and pretending to know what a fighter is "thinking" and "expecting". What a joke.

    You dodged every single point and question I made.

    I answered your moronic questions and still you ask more of the same

    Joshua quit. Everyone can see that besides you!

    He was not coming off the ropes, he knows better, so he wasnt responding lucidly, so it was stopped.

    Your answers mean nothing when you pretend to know what a fighter is thinking, feeling and expecting. You are done wasting my time.

    You obviously don't know how to make basic observations, which is probably why you think Joshua didn't no mas.

    I don't pretend to know anything, it is clear to anyone with a clear thinking brain that Joshua ran out of ideas which is why he was begging his trainer for advice/reassurance on what to do and when that didn't work he, ended up demoralized because Ruiz wasn't being affected by anything Josh was throwing at him and quit to avoid more punishment.

    Exactly the same way Amir Khan quit.

    Joshua was getting KTFO within seconds if the ref had of allowed the fight to continue, he quit and the referee obliged him.
