This is gud....The fight was entertaining...We have another heavyweight star. And The rematch will be big. Joshua just better win....if he lose again then That mega fight is ruined
Totally agree, when a fight is hot go for it. The dumb fans who every single time we talk about this always bring up "He's smart to hold out" "The offers would always get bigger" "He was smart to turn down 12.5m, then 15m" "Now look he's been offer 100m"... lol. Oh well beetches that is down in the drain now.
The only person getting that big offer is going to be Ruiz in a rematch, and he deserves it for having the cojones that the others didn't have.
There is no fight that Joshua went into that he was the underdog or anyone thought his opponent had a chance. Not even this one. I assume everyone knew he would KO a 41 year old Klitchsko coming off of a loss and year layoff. I will give everyone here that much credit without knowing.
utter rubbish
wrong on wlad and joshua before this fight would be favourite against everybody in the division so thats a moot point. Joshua has beaten more top 10 boxers than Fury and Wilder combined in only 22 fights, an incredible feat
an achievement that only p4p kings loma & usyk can match, all three have the same haters, funny that
division needed shaking up, aj has paid the price for taking hard fight after hard fight and this could actually lead to fury and wilder being more cautious, but a mexican champion will get the division more popular with more US media paying attention so it's a loss and win for boxing

No it didnt he can still fight Wilder in a big money fight. This was a cherrypick gone wrong. Is what gonna happen eventually.....
Its not a big money like it was before. You can kiss those 50M and 100M purses goodbye. The fight aint worth that much anymore. This is what they get for marinating it all it takes is one of the fighters to lose badly and the stock PLUMMETS.

All respect to Andy Ruiz though
Exactly bro!!! If AJ would have lost to wilder that fight would have made a ish load of money and the rematch even more
Fuk off. Pompous superstars refusing to fight each other and getting rich off meaningless matches is NOT a win for boxing. This is the kind of thing that's healthy for the sport. It's like the occasional forest fire. It looks tragic, until you see the cleansed earth grow back new and healthy.
Exactly!
This was beautiful!
NOPE...Wilder vs Fury II is still a HUGE match up here in the States
What slipped away was A Side for AJ and Eddie but it is still a BIG FIGHT just like Mayweather vs Pacquiao was still a big fight after JMM knocked him out
Boxing won tonight. The better fighter - a huge underdog - won and now Fury and Ruiz proved respectively that Wilder and Joshua are not the two best Heavyweights in the world. What we missed - for the time being - is an exciting fight between two KO artists and top 5 Heavyweight, not the fight of the century.
All respect to Andy Ruiz though
If anything, boxing wins. No more marinating.
If this is the sacrifice and we lose Wilder/AJ for no more marinations, so be it.
There will always be another superfight.
Eddie Hearn probably legit chit in his pants at ringside. How did Boxing lose?
We deserved Wilder/Fury/Joshua against each other, we pay the money for these fights. This polotical stuff has to stop.
Nope. This like Julian William's beating Hurd's ass and Harrison beating Charlo are great for boxing. The order that has been for a while has been unsettled and we have other fighters in the driver's seat.
This result is a win for boxing. These ***** mfers need to learn to man the **** up and make the big/unification fights instead of thinking they can continue to fight bum after bum. AJ and Hearn had their dumbass plan and arrogance backfire big time tonight. They look like the stupidest mfers right now.
Boxing didn't lose at all. In fact, the opposite happened. The post fight buzz has been great for this upset. This fight got everyone talking.
Let these two run it back and see if Joshua can come back like a true champion. If he does, then we are back to square one. One loss isn't going to kill Joshua's name value.
