    Exactly how I see it, he is planted when he gets hit and his lack of head movement only makes it worse he takes shots flush. That being said Ruiz took a few that would put most heavyweights down and probably out. I just hope that this loss makes Joshua start fighting without fear like he did before he became this media machine, I think he has been fighting with a lot of fear for along time.

    His chin is not glass, maybe mediocre, but he doesn't recover easily after a good punch.

    Been off the site two weeks but I wasn't that surprised by the result. Jr was possibly the worst opponent they could have picked regards style match up. They also did not expect him to have such a good chin.

    Good answer. At a minimum you have to concede his chin is suspect. I would go further than that. Ruiz isn't exactly a puncher, yet he bounced Joshua up and down from the canvas like a basketball. Joshua hit the canvas FOUR times. That's a shaky mandible, period.

    But it wasn't his chin that was the problem. If anything he has a glass temple.
