I watch Ruiz Jr for the first time last week so, I did underestimate him because he looked fat but frankly he was very surprised at me. I feel sorry for him losing the WBO title fight.
What do you think about this fight? Did Parker deserve to win? The fight really very close so, I think Ruiz Jr deserves a rematch. Do you agree with me on this issue?

Andy Ruiz Jr. VS Joseph Parker Highlights
Andy Ruiz Jr. Highlights
Maybe you has been lost this fight but you won many fans. :boxing:
What the **** are you talking about?
The majority thinks that Parker was **** and the fight was at least a draw.
The stats are very similar.
Parker won because burger king hahahaha.
Draw. And Ruiz deserves the rematch in U.S.A
I'd like to see some backup to this claim. I've posted a number of reference points where opinions of boxing writers have been collated, and the majority see Parker winning. Oh, but..you mean NSB posters, right?
The stats are similar? The only argument people have come up with so far is that "Ruiz was pressing and the busier fighter". Yet Parker threw over 20% more punches than Ruiz - and landed more. Ruiz simply didn't collect enough rounds, he didn't have enough in the tank.
Boxing fans are stupid and ride the narrative until it's dead - don't perpetuate this notion.
It was a close fight, but the majority of impartials feel Parker won the fight.
CompuBox numbers came out today and have Parker throwing more, and landing more, so that's another feather in the cap I guess.
I'd like to see Ruiz after a few more months of conditioning work - he didn't look like he had much left at the back end of the fight.

I felt like Ruiz edged it (115-113).
Having said that, I'm just not sold on him as a top heavyweight. And I don't base that off of his physique; I know he has worked hard to shed off a lot of that excess weight.
He hasn't really fought very good competition or a variety of styles. So that in and of itself makes it hard to gauge just how good he is. He hasn't exactly looked spectacular against the limited opposition he's faced.
I like Joseph Parker, but he just doesn't look like he's ready for the top heavyweights at this point. I mean, if you're gun shy against Takam and Ruiz, what happens when you are faced with Joshua, Wilder, Wlad, Povetkin or even Pulev.
I was more impressed with Whyte and Chisora than I was Parker and Ruiz.
Logic is a dirty word around here.
Logic is like a sin around here.
Ruiz is more skilled than Parker, I think that was the logic here. And it was a close fight as we know, it's not like Parker dominated the guy, Ruiz was pressing the action most of the time.
Bro, you can't call the guy who won the fight 'not special' while calling the loser 'skilled'. That's like ass backwards wtf?
So, Parker who actually beat Ruiz isn't anything special yet the LOSER is skilled?
The logic is strong in this one.

It was just a close fight honestly not the most interesting one. Parker is not special. Ruiz is skilled and yes he deserves a rematch, he could have had the points decision or a draw which I think one of the judges scored it too, even away on Parker territory. I like Ruiz, keep working on his conditioning.

I wonder that what he can do against elite HW boxers? (like AJ, Wilder, Klitschko, Ortiz etc..) He has physical disadvantage against them and I think all of them better than Parker. Example: Klitschko has great jabs, Wilder's and Joshua's power punches, Ortiz's technique & power. To be honest, he has many years in his professional career so, he's only 27. I believe that he'll be first Mexican HW champion of the world.
If i had the opportunity to say something to Parker, i told him not to fight against elite HW boxers. (Especially outside New Zealand)
