    I can see it now, cristobals iron chin would shrug off AJ'S overrated "power" and he'd smash him up with those awkward shots up close.

    Cristobal ko9 Aj

    It ends like Dominic Brezeale or 12 round UD Joshua.

    This forum is so horrible how it goes from drastically overrating a fighter to drastically underrating the same fighter. There's just no in between.

    Yeah I'd give him a good 30% chance. If Joshua is getting dropped and badly hurt by a 41 year old inactive Klitschko, buzzed by Whyte, busted up and outboxed by Povetkin before the KO, shocked and awed by Ruiz. Not crazy to suggest that a prime or near prime Arreola had a decent chance.

    Exactly. The average IQ seems to get lower on here every summer when all the school kids start hopping on youtube and watching fights and deciding to give their opinion.

    No wonder there are so many mass shootings as well.

    If you agree Kownacki is very similar to Ruiz, which he is, you have to give a prime Arreola a fair chance vs Femi. Arreola prime was a rough house brawler with power and durability. Femi would need to fight him like Vitali did and he's just too clunky to be trusted to get the job done.

    Kownacki is not like Ruiz . Arroela and Kownacki are slow and sloppy brawlers.. Ruiz is fast and fluid with good counter punching ability

    AJ would beat both Arroela and Kownacki into submission. Its easy to know you dksab.

    Kownacki is very much like Ruiz, fool. Volume puncher, solid chin, they even look like twins. AJ was supposed to beat Ruiz into submission and got his ass kd'd 4 times and quit.

    Now go away and take your meds.

    This. Arreola in his prime really packed a punch and had a solid chin. Joshua could definitely get knocked out if Arreola from his prime landed flush on him. Joshua really needs to get back to working on his boxing fundamentals instead of all of the strength training and drop some of that excess muscle, since he can’t keep his hands up without getting tired.

    Ruiz is not a volume puncher you utter spastic. He throws economically and rarely wastes any punches. Kownacki throws punches in bunches because he is slow and has minimal skill. He works off volume.. Ruiz works off precision and behind a snappy jab thrown with purpose.
    Tell me more how they are alike because they look like brothers you skagged out MORON? :nut::icon_pc:
