    80% won't have eggg on their faces, it's just predictions.

    Have we forgotten about all the people that picked AJ in the first fight? If thats the case then they must have drowned in Egg after the first fight.

    Rubbish!! Muscle creates more lactic acid and is 3 x heavier than fat. You arguement is that wearing a 20 pound vest and going for a run makes no difference to if you are wearing it or not.

    Yes, historically that is correct. Losing lean muscle doesn't mean you will gain stamina in a boxing ring either. You'll find out soon enough tomorrow.

    Boxing isn't running. A huge guy pushing against you will wear you out more when you drop weight. It's complicated.

    So last time AJ boxed at this weight was his 9th fight in 2014 against Bakhtov

    I agree, they have made AJ in to this mythical fighter... they have forgotten what he looked like against Klitschko, Takam, Ruiz and a couple of others.

    Because he wears short white shorts, long white gown and looks the part they have imagined he moves like Ali, jabs likes Holmes, punches like Foreman..

    It's a myth, AJ is AJ, he is very good, but he isn't invincible and he isn't this fleet footed heavyweight Mayweather.

    I'm concerned about Ruiz and how much his put into this. Once you reach the mountain and get everything you ever wanted like he did maybe putting that work in becomes a little bit harder. Easier to take a days off.

    No way did I expect Ruiz to come in heavier than last time.

    Yes. He hasn't the tools to neutralize Ruiz style. Neither at 247 nor at 237. It will be a close fight and whoever lands the first big shot, hurts other guy, has solid chance to win. AJ can land that big shot again, drops Ruiz and then fighting smart. He can win. It's basically 50/50 to me.

    Well he did a detailed interview about talking to Klitschko throughout the camp. Wladimir told him to cut out the cardio work, road work, treadmill, bicycling, etc. Joshua said he has and that it will be key in this fight.

    When they faced off with each other at the table for the sit down interview recently...

    Which company produced that chair? That's a strong chair.

    Not all my friend as you say a prediction is a prediction. It was more aimed at those who have clearly been over inflating ruiz jr’s ability, whilst at the same time writing AJ off as the second coming of audley Harrison
