    Remember when this leather face was telling us all that Joshua was superior to Lennox Lewis.

    Now all of a sudden he doesn't believe he is capable of beating Ruiz.

    Clearly Matchroom have moved on and ready to reinvest in another HW on their books. Speaking of books, it's documented that Barry and His son Eddie were taking trips to Epstein island.

    What if Joshua wins, will there be some excuse to discredit the victory?

    You bet your ass there will be excuses to discredit his victory. Let's beat them to it and come up with a list.

    Future excuse #1

    1. Ruiz let the fame/money get to him, he was no longer hungry, and came to cash out in the rematch.

    I'm not 100% sure that AJ can beat Ruiz either. The fact is that the physical aspects are in AJ's favour but he may be mentally gunshy after Ruiz last carpet bombed him. I'd guess that AJ's fundamentals and size are good enough to make it 60-40 in his favour, but who knows what could happen if Ruiz turns it into a firefight again?

    Hopefully when matchroom are ready to move on from AJ you will be as well, you are obsessed.

    A promoter hyping one of his fights by saying its a 50/50 close fight. Wow. I have never ever seen that before. that's really something.

    Main one will be that Ruiz was lighter and lost punsh durability and what made him great
