Did Andy Ruiz Leave Joshua With Lasting Brain Damage?

The ego got dented pretty bad against the dough boy, about as bad as Wilders head against Fury.

 

Imagine that same guy beating the obese midget in a rematch and then going on to fight two more top ten opponents. Then trying for unification. Imagine that...

 

Definitely ruined mentally

 

That's what happen when you think you are the best and live by that delusion.

 

Usyk will probably finish his career.

 

I've been an Aj fan but tbh i want to see Usyk brutally KO him. It'll delay undisputed but it would be a sight to see.

 

Somehow recovered from the brink to win against WK but when Ruiz clipped that right ear the fight was basically over. Didn't know where he was at the end. Usyk probably doesn't even need to land his best shot.

 

I dont think usyck got that pop to take AJ down. Even if Usyck gets up to 230 (as reported), hes gonna be giving up a lot of his mobility and speed just to even dent AJ's chin. It'll be a chess match, and if there is a knockout, itll come from AJ imo.

 

I don't know about brutally stopping him. But I can see AJ gassing, getting lit up like a Christmas tree and then spitting out his gumshield.

Going no mass Ruiz style.

 

A boxer trash talking ? Well i never.

I'm glad i was sitting down when i read this otherwise i would have fallen over with shock.

 

I think to be truly deluded you have to believe deep down you are the best even if it's clearly not true. Basically a personality disorder. Like Broner or Eubank Jr.

AJ & Wilder although they talk themselves up show they are mentally not the strongest and their physical strength or lack of it at times is glaring to see and they recognize it. If either of these men were fully deluded or believed their hype they wouldn't have got to where they are. would have got sparko'd a few more times.

You hear it time and time again, boxing is all mental.

Fury believes full in his heart he is the man and that he can beat anyone - but he still won't jump headfirst into a shark pool at the wrong time.

They all give us fun fights, we have to respect them in one way or another.

 

I doubt he took unrecoverable physical damage. Pretty sure his feelings are permanently hurt.

 

Nevermind Joshua, I think some of the posters on this site clearly have brain damage

 

I won't go against Usyk. Not because of hate for AJ or love of Usyk. Can't go against a man that knowingly and purposely going into a fight with a disadvantage in height, power and age. WAR USYK!!!!!!

 

Joshua went from "playing it cool" with that smug, head-back, slow laugh thing, when asked about various potential opponents, to being a bit defensive and agitated. He knows that "playing it cool" character can't hold water any longer. People know that he can be humbled by even mediocre opposition, therefore laughing at the prospect of reasonable opposition just looks fake, which it always has been in my opinion. I don't believe that Joshua himself has ever thought he was invincible. How could you, with a 1l gas tank and a chin like that?

I give him a decent chance at beating anyone, but he has been so overhyped on what must be among the most overrated records in boxing. Usyk, Fury and Wilder all have excellent chances. It's funny how people now believe Wilder is crap and has no chance against Joshua based on what Tyson Fury done to him. It doesn't take much for Joshua to do his signature funny dance. I think it's important to get his respect early, and to knock him out because nobody will win a decision against him even if deserved.
