    AJ was doing fine v Ruiz but got sloppy after dropping him, after he got caught he fell apart which is why he lost exchanges after being rocked in round 3.

    Ali was out of shape in most of his fights during the 70`s,he took tons of punishment, he got battered all over the place by Sahavers in a fight where he was really out of shape and slow, after that fight scars were found on his brain, he also took horrible punishment in his first fight v Frazier and in Manilla, Ali had one of the greatest chins in boxing history.

    He still got caught against Ruiz and Ruiz is no Bowe. Bowe is hittable but he is fantastic in the pocket and Joshua got anxious every time Pulev of all people got close and clinched almost every time he did. Bowe would get rough in the clinches and work on the inside

    He has always been lean.

    He's a lean, muscular man.

    He may be leaner than usual per say but not generally leaner than usual, otherwise that is not usual or indeed general. Hello and Goodbye.

    Are we sure it isn't just the camera angle, guys? This could be a lot over nothing.

    They were saying Wladimir had massively slimmed down back in the day, and when he entered the ring, he was only something like 4 or 5 pounds off from his usual.

    If he has dropped weight for more stamina/movement Joshua could well have gave up his best asset for this fight .jmo

    Ruiz has faster combo`s in the pocket than Bowe had.

    Didn't help him all that well against shot to bits Arreola now did it ?

    Timing and precision beats speed. Bowe would absolutely demolish Andy Ruiz's fat ass in the pocket and he'd have the fun doing it. I have a tiny bit more respect for Joshua fans than Wilder or Fury fans because they're usually not as delusional. Don't make me loose it
