    He's never been a body puncher. Should definitely not go with this tactic, clearly not in his repertoire.

    He's very susceptible to the body himself though.

    He does, but at 6”6, would punching down at a much shorter opponent who throws fast short counter hooks not leave himself vulnerable to getting caught with a shot? Ruiz loves fighting taller fighters, and has a developed his style where he throws when his taller opponent throws...they momentarily fall in, and his shorter stature and the way he pivots means that he’s always ready to throw and maintain his positioning. It’s interesting...

    Giving up his height advantage, ducking down trying to go to the body leaving him open to quick counters over the top...insane advice. Playing directly into Ruiz' fat hands.

    Joshua has a massive reach advantage over Ruiz, he should be jabbing to the body throughout the fight going from head-to-body and giving Ruiz something to think about. He landed flush punches on Ruiz chin last time and Ruiz got stronger as the fight went on.

    Same thing happens if AJ fights Wilder and fury so i dont get your point? Are you talking that more British fans will be interested?

    More fans in general will be interested, especially more British fans. And yes the same outcome could happen but I think AJ can give both serious problems and could even knock either out. Joshua is the most popular Heavyweight on the planet, a Wilder or Fury fight would be absolutely massive.

    The bodybuilder Joshua is a KO waiting to happen. That beating he took from that gluttonous blob Ruiz. And being koed viciously by David Price in sparring certainly took it's toll on poor Anthony's health. I bet he gets panic attacks when the boiler man comes to his house. I also bet he shakes when he goes into Mc Donalds and a fat gut serves him his fries. Just go back to the olympia Anthony. Your no match for that 267lb of blubber. lol

    There’s people who like Joshua, there’s people who hate him. There’s people who give reasonable opinions on why he will lose again, there’s people who give tactical advice on how he can defeat Ruiz and regain his belts.

    Then there’s people like you who end there posts with “lol”.

    I will give Joshua huge props if he wins the rematch,it cant be easy to fire yourself up against such an affable character like Ruiz who clearly has no fears and is happy within himself.Think AJ has some self doubts about winning this.

    He seems to be into that mind control stuff, acting the opposite way to how you feel in order to keep you in a positive frame of mind. Just makes you look weird over compensating. Just a theory, he does talk a lot if that affirmation jargon.
