Probs a bit of luck as AJ obviously though he has Ruiz more hurt and got caught. In saying this AJ underestimated Ruiz and was looking for a hightlight reel ko so he could compete with Wilder and promote himself in the US... I think AJ will win the rematch as he most likely fight far more cautiously like he did with Povetkin and Parker.. It seems AJ is focusing on losing muscle mass and improving his stamina so it will be interesting to see what difference that makes.. Plus Andy is still partying like a gansta and AJ has been focusing on rematch.. Lets be honest, Ruiz caught AJ with his best shot but AJ still fought on for another 4 rounds, if Wilder had caught him AJ would have been sleeping like a baby.. Point is Ruiz doesn't hit that hard and if AJ doesn't get caught like before because he is taking Ruiz seriously and improves his stamina it will be a long night for Ruiz (maybe even a Fury type quit on your stool)..
Nothing “Lucky” about that right AJ hit him straight flush with and yet he walked straight through it to land thirty or so “lucky” punches over the next several rounds. AJ making mistakes does not equal Ruiz getting lucky. Enjoy your snickers
Boxing is 80 % mental and 20% physical........AJ quit when the heat got too hot in the kitchen........plus you cannot train a chin.....the first time Ruiz hits him a gain it will be deja vu and the Bodybuilder is looking for the exit asap......AJ really NEEDS A LUCKY PUNCH otherwise he is toast, bank on it.
Incorrect. That was probably a harder shot than Wilder has taken in his entire career and we've seen him wobbled already, that 4 rounds that AJ fought on for probably wouldn't have happened if Wilder had taken that.
Who has Ruiz ko'd which makes you think he actually hits hard (for a heavyweight they all hit hard)..
Is Anthony Joshua (has taken Klitschko and Whyte's biggest shots) a good enough start? Joseph Parker repeatedly saying he has been hit harder by him than by Whyte, Joshua, Klitschko etc may be a hint too...
He didn't ko AJ he caught him on the tample and AJ never recovered. It still took another 4 rounds to get a stoppage yet AJ wasn't down or out.. If Wilder or Wlad or any hard hitting boxer got him there while he was mid shot he would have done a David Price.. Wlad hit him in the face so AJ survived and Wlad had taken a huge shot before so he couldn't finish him off.. JP is talking it up.. He gets asked because he beat him his isn't gonna say he hits like a fairy is he... Ruiz is about speed not power...
Sorry, clearly I got it wrong. Ruiz didn't KO Joshua - he just punched him in the head so hard that the fight ended up having to be stopped. My bad.
Ortiz hit him pretty hard tbh, Nichols gave him the cheak jab and no one gets up from that normally..
TKO. It was stopped becasue AJ had enough. Again if Wilder had caught him with that shot he would still be alseep now..
define "LUCKY"? you basically wrote that Ruiz took his time, and waited to counter AJ, and he landed successfully. so how is that lucky?
