    I think that intial shot to the left temple AJ took before the first knockdown ****ed him up big time... He was fighting scared and looked concused thereafter.

    He's a health nut and a bodybuilder so he wasn't trying to go to war in that condition... Which I get and don't get at the same time.

    Yep. Both men lost money.

    So who's the top Mexican boxer now ?

    So, all the people who were approached before Ruiz and turned down the Joshua fight: what must they be thinking now? :lol:

    If they make the rematch for September or October, it ends the exact same way in my opinion: Big Andy has the blueprint, and will have a full 12 week camp behind him next time.

    Andy Ruiz seems like such a nice guy. I am happy for him. But, make no mistake, he is not a great fighter. Quite frankly, Joshua just sucked.

    Joshua shouldn't go anywhere near Wilder, Whyte or any other heavyweight who isn't tough and can punch,

    Didn't Joshua get rocked by Povetkin very early and lost plenty of rounds? Ruiz just landed better combinations and with more power and exposed Joshua. Even scoring the first knockdown didn't save Joshua.

    That’s true. Good money to be made there. Hell, I love that even more since it’ll be in SoCal and the people here will actually care

    Hearn is the biggest dumbass, looking at our Pillsbury boy and thinking easy work.

    Told to step forward, AFTER the ref gave him an extra 10s for the usual mouth guard shenanigans, Joshua proceeds to step back and lean on the ropes.

    He quit.

    We’ll never know, but this does shake the heavyweight division up a bit, since the division was starting to go stagnant.
