    Dude, are you stupid? I said I (me) has lost all respect for Ruiz for cheating boxing fans and himself with his morbid obesity. He obviously commanded plenty respect from Joshua in the ring and he fought him appropriately at distance. Ruiz could not cut the ring carrying at least 30lb of FLAB he didn't have to.

    Douglas took a dive. Ruiz didn’t.

    Holyfield was next up for the winner as the mandatory. Tyson signed to fight Holyfield but hurt his ribs and pulled out, then went to prison.

    Sure he did. Holyfield doesn’t have one punch power and Douglas didn’t even try to get up. He quit.

    The version of Douglas that beat Tyson would beat Ruiz

    Fat out of shape 246lb Douglas looked a million times better shape than even regular 260lb Ruiz. He also put up a better fight in the 3 rounds vs Holyfield than Ruiz did in 12 against Joshua. Holy's speed was frustrating Douglas he took a gamble trying to land some big shots and Holy clipped him with a great counter punch.
    Summary. Andy Ruiz can't carry Buster Douglas' jock strap.

    Exactly. The best thing about this victory is that it will hopefully put an end to all this nonsense that this was something other than the unlikely to-be-repeated upset by a much lesser fighter that this always was.

    Joshua and Ruiz fight ten times, Joshua beats him nine times out of ten. There are levels in this sport, and Ruiz has never been on Joshua's level.

    I would love to know what idiot in his team told him he could eat his way to victory.
    Now he wants us to watch another fat guy following a bodybuilder who is scared of his own shadow for twelve rounds again.
    Andy can go stick his snickers where the sun don't shine. No thanks!
