    Don't go of by looks ruiz is the fastest heavyweight today other then Tyson fury

    I expect Joshua to win but it wont be easy maybe few dangerous moments.....

    Ruiz needs to keep it in the inside with his fast flurries

    I'm looking forward to the between-round slow motion replays when Joshua jabs Ruiz and Ruiz's nipples wobble for 20 seconds.

    The boxing gods might decide to punish AJ for his shameless ducking of Hunter and his step up to CW level.

    Ruiz has some skills and his relative success will depend on getting in doing damage then getting out.

    Ruiz is actually a better athlete than AJ. Would AJ be as light on his feet as this if he was carrying 70lbs of whale blubber?

    I don't see how he will do better than Parker or Takham

    He won't. Furthermore, DAZN will be making an operational loss on this fight

    What a poor debut in America for Joshua and all around sh*tshow.

    If he shows up anything higher than 230-240, he should be ashamed of himself.

    He may have quick hands but he's far too small and lacks the reach to get to Joshua. Against Parker he had an opponent with only a 76" reach and so he could easily get to Parker with counters when Parker opened up. Joshua has an 8 inch reach advantage and a far better jab than Parker, he also counter punches unlike Parker so Ruiz can't just walk in with no head movement and get away with it like he did vs Parker.

    I expect this to be Joshua's easiest defence since Molina. It's going to be awfully one sided.

    CW as in Cruiserweight?
    If so then I'd like to remind you that Hunter himself was a Cruiserwight a few years back.

    But I do agree that Hunter was the better fight to make.

    Yeah.

    Yeah that's my point, Hunter is a natural CW.

    It's the lack of reach that's a problem for Ruiz.

    I think he's better than Miller though.
