    I see. Did not know that. Thought something might be going on that had not come out in the news yet.

    He was banned because they gave him a medical and couldn't find any heart, it was a medical miracle and initially they believed it was a fault with the equipment.

    Then they watched the Ruiz fight and saw with their own eyes AJ basically quit and that confirmed it.

    So until AJ proves he has heart then he is banned.

    Not a huge fan of his but how many times did he get up after being knocked down? It takes heart just to step in the ring, he was just beaten by the better man on the night.

    Getting up 4 times proved he has heart

    Funny post but a little harsh

    No. Joshua just needs to undergo a medical examination by that commission's doctors.

    All that courage coming from an anonymous keyboard warrior who’d gush like a fan girl if he ever met Joshua and who wouldn’t have the balls to step between the ropes and take a fight if his life depended on it lol

    This is how I feel about it. Joshua could have just stayed down after the first knockdown if he truly lacked heart. He traded punches, did what he could do, but Ruiz was flat out better. There's no shame in losing to someone who outfights you. And post-Dadashev, ripping on fighters for "quitting" or showing a lack of heart in a tough fight seems less amusing.

    It was embarrassing like Ortiz-Maidana. AJ wanted out
