    All the best Roids, chemists a strict diet with access to the best facilities doesn't buy heart and chin.

    Doesn’t matter. Irrelevant to the fact AJ quit.

    :risas3: I've been telling all you clowns this era is a garbage filled wasteland full of unskilled Herman Munster-esque wooden bums and zero skill windmilling spastic bums who can't fight or box to save their lives and who took up the sport late after transitioning from other sports and once again I have been proven correct. I was extremely confident Ruiz was going to KO AJ after he dropped him for the first time because despite those mounds of excess blubber he actually has skills, knows how to fight, and throw counters with speed and I wasn't joking when I said he'd KO Bum Squad who is even worse and less skilled than AJ.

    Ruiz would've KO'd him sooner had he had more gas in his tank and best believe that way past his best 41 y/o Wlad would've KO'd him too had he put his foot on the gas after dropping him. Prime Wlad would spark both AJ and Bum Squad out in a round a piece on the same night. Hell, Corrie Sanders would've too. Both AJ and Bum Squad are clueless under pressure, like fish out of water the pair of them.

    LOL **** yeah I already thought Wilder was better but we found out tonight who the real fraud was out of the 2,so happy for Ruiz who was unlucky not to get the WBO title when he fought Parker.
    Wilder has more power, better chin and far more heart then Joshua who is now on the outside looking in with all attention now turns to hopefully get a rematch between Wilder and Fury to determine who the best heavyweight in the world

    AJ knows he’ll most likely get the belts back by Christmas.

    Ridiculous. The bodybuilder should be ashamed of himself, losing to a guy in that shape.

    I used to be a Joshua supporter, until I saw those weird scorecards showing up before his fight with Takam. They all read out Joshua as the winner, BEFORE they even entered the ring!

    No pre-filled scorecards needed here, and I freaking love it!

    Joshua couldn't handle the speed of Ruiz. That much was obvious. It doesn't make him a "fraud" or a bad boxer. He was simply outmatched by one of the fundamental skills of the game. Joshua's team should have known this - look at the respect they gave to Parker, who also has fast hands. Against Parker Joshua concentrated on safety first and boxed to a boring decision. Here, for some reason -- probably a desire to make a big splash in the USA -- Joshua threw caution to the wind, never got behind his jab and got wrecked. Very poor advice from his trainer, Robert McCracken, who places far too much faith in his fighter's durability (i.e. Carl Froch) and not enough emphasis on the technical.

    But all credit to Andy Ruiz. He put in a tremendous performance, did exactly what he needed to do with his fast hands and had enough durability himself to survive Joshua's power when it came in isolated punches.
