    Lower Andy Ruiz's output???

    Did you even watch the Joshua rematch? Ruiz didn't have the stamina to throw more than 30 punches in a single round for the bout and averaged less than 25 punches per round for the entire fight. The fat slob couldn't show genuine 12 round stamina.

    On the other hand when a guy as big as Carnera goes to the canvas. He may be a trip hazard. AJ would be mindful not sprain an ankle tripping over Carnera.

    Andy threw a lot of punches for 12 rounds against a very big man in Parker. Quite a bit more than Marciano threw against Walcott over the same distance.

    I am not trying to do my position any favors, I am giving my assessment of how highly Moran was regarded at the time.
