A thread for December 8th - who did they pick?

AJ

Ruiz has been partying it up and may have been slacking during training camp. AJ has been dedicated and reduced some of his muscle mass for speed.

People forgot that AJ dropped Ruiz first and got careless. If he keep his distance and fight smart, he can win this fight.

 

Joshua TKO Round 11

 

Andy Ruiz Jr. by KO. A more cautious Joshua gets broken down over 9-10 rounds or Ruiz just goes berserk before he even has chance to realize this is a new fight and takes him out early.

 

Andy Ruiz Jr is good but my money is on Femi AJ to regain the title.

 

Ruiz KO for me.

He's already proved he can take AJ's bombs and has superior speed/combinations. I think he'll overwhelm AJ mid-fight once more.

 

I'm really unsure on this one but i'm going for Ruiz. His pressure fighter style seems to really bother Joshua who is not using to being backed up by a very skilled fighter with a very good chin. I'm going for Ruiz stoppage by round 10.

 

Favoring Joshua here

Last fight i predicted ruiz would win though

This time im choosing AJ

 

Joshua late KO, ~round 10

 

And if they disagree, maybe go with a draw.

Alright geezer

 

I voted for Joshua, i think he will take a Klitschko type approach until it time or indeed if that time occurs, to throw the heavy bombs.
Joshua mindset will be just to get the win, be that on points or if lucky by knockout.

However if Joshua fights like he did last time then Ruiz with his faster hands will prevail.

So Joshua for the win in my opinion.

 

I think you should have answers short of "absolutey sure".
Most if completely honest do not feel this way.
And it is not discerning to be so positive-anything can happen even if there was a reason to make one guy a massive underdog, which there is not.

Why try to funnel everyone into these narrow categories?
Youa ctually hold far MORE people to account if you have categories allowing a degree of certitude, &/or just making a pick.
Then *Many& more people could vote-& accurately reflect their honest opinions.

I would gladly vote for Ruiz, but not if it is accompanied by stipulating what would be foolish to & a lie for me-that I am 100% certain of it.

 

Ruiz looked better then I thought at open work out so I gave him an extra round.

People pretending Joshua didn’t get any damage done and completely ignore he had 3 rounds of maintaining after the 3rd ,won’t be that here...this fight goes 3 ways, either Ruiz gets an early stoppage or AJ stops him or wins convincing in 12 rounds.

Odds are on AJ and should make it look easy in a tough fight where both will be nearly landing in certain exchanges ,whoever takes the first few punishing rounds will lose......

If AJ finds range with combos on the outside it’s not going long at all.......

Going Joshua in 8 .

 

Ruiz trainer in the last fight warned him about fighting Joshua mid-range...that how he lost the 5th round.
