Is Joshua losing to Ruiz the most embarrassing moment

You crying on here asking people to buy insurance so you can make your daddy proud was pretty bad You talking about how pathetic your own life was bad It’s good you got those threads deleted now You claiming broner to be the next fotd because he was black was also bad A lot of embarrassing boxingscene moments not just aj losing

Many fighters have continued fighting with injuries. It's a championship fight, you don't quit. Only 9 minutes more and he would've won the fight on points. Duran quitting against Leonard was even more shameful. Real champions don't quit! like Ali did against holmes? so Ali was a coward and bad champ?

Not really because the only people who were super shocked were the nuthuggers and people with low IQs who ride the hype train. AJ also handled his loss humbly, so he actually didn't come out of it looking too bad. If he loses the rematch then he has a serious rebuilding job to do, although he will likely never overcome his limitations. I can see him fighting on in the UK and making some nice paychecks while racking up about 30 wins against 4 or 5 losses then calling it a career. I'd say Jeff Lacy losing his soul to Joe Calzaghe was more embarrassing for the American. People were putting Lacy in their top 10 P4P of all-time. Joe didn't stand a chance according to 90% of experts. AJ got caught and never recovered, it's Heavyweight boxing after all. Lacy got ruined and never, ever recovered. Looked like a man on the gallows ever since.

In this era of boxing there are two pathways for him. He either loses to Joshua, in which case he'll be discarded on account of having two losses and called an embarrassment for Joshua. Our he'll beat Joshua and get a run of protected defences that won't prove anything about his ability, but will cement him in American minds as a top fighter. Basically, Joshua loses either way for the yanks. Ok Toffee. Please keep your hyped up fake champions at home so they don't get embarrassed by Americans who are levels above the insignificant competition in your country.

Tyson and AJ's records aren't even comparable ... You are more right than you think. AJ rarely knocks anyone out, whereas Iron Mike knocked nearly everyone out (not some early ref stoppage TKO BS). Tyson DID nearly KO Buster in that fight (controversial ten count). Ruiz was never in trouble ... but he did get pissed off after that knock-down. Credit AJ the knock-down ... but the man got up pissed. Uh-oh! :beerchug:

Vitali quitting against Chris Byrd was pretty bad, but that was only one belt. AJ handing over four belts to Andy is the most embarrassing of all time. LOL at Vitali quitting he tore up his shoulder, have you ever been an athlete? I've broken a collar bone during a Judo tourney and it was almost impossible to continue only on the internet would tearing up your shoulder and then not continuing is called quitting.

larrry, you are pathetic. LoL, it's not Larry's fault AJ laid an egg. ROFL! :boxing:

Ruiz Jr. - Mexican American Snickers Champion stole the shine and multi-million from Wilder. This is a way for Larry to feel salty Ruiz stole nothing from Wilder, but he took a lot from Joshua. hearn cherry-picked Ruiz, lol. Ruiz kicked his ace and sent him home confused. Wilder couldn't get Joshua anywhere near a fair contract, else he would have beaten Ruiz to him, but so goes boxing. Wilder is rich, getting richer, and laughing at team AJ getting exposed, embarrassed, and sent packing. Ruiz and Wilder will meet one day (an easy fight to make, thanks PBC). Will be a great fight. Not clear who will be "stealing" from who at that point. A shame American fighters have no respect for Olympic gold medal winners ... in the ring. LoLoL! :haha:

Ali losing to a 6-0-1 Spinks. Embarrassing, but that was Father Time intervening. Ali never touched the mat, and was not stopped. AJ isn't even 30, flattened four times, and was TKO'd. Couldn't recall that he needed to obey the refs instructions to walk forward. Definitely way more embarrasing ... :boxing:

not really embarrassing though. douglas fought a great fight and tyson didnt look that bad. he also had douglas almost out and it was a real competitive fight with tyson leaving it all in the ring and going out on his shield. joshua got intimidated, bullied and rolled over. douglas-tyson was a bigger upset, but not really embarrassing at all. no, and that's why his loss to lewis isn't embarrassing. but he did quit against byrd, nobody is saying it was for no reason, we all know he was injured but this is boxing. the fact that he was dominating makes it more embarrassing, not less. until he proved himself later on the whole world thought he was soft (for a fighter), and at the time they were right to think so. being that hyped up, fighting a guy he is favored to beat by massive odds, a guy bear in mind who fought as low as 175(!) while vitali is a giant, dominating and the suddenly giving in from pain of an injury.. yes, that was embarrassing. not knocking vitali, he came back, overcame it and proved himself an improved fighter and eventually a great champion. but that loss really was embarrassing at the time. ali was way past his prime by then, the fact that he was a shell of himself mitigates most oif not all of the embarassment imo. like rjj losing to enzo., it wasn't embarassing, just sad. I disagree on your Vitali take. Pain is part of boxing. Injuries can be something else though. Vitali should not have been expected to possibly end his career by continuing on while injured.

At least Buster Douglas actually looked like a champion. 6'4", 231 lbs., muscular body, and had wins over guys like Oliver McCall, Randall Cobb, and Trevor Berbick. He looked ATHLETIC and towered over Mike. He had an 83-inch reach. That's a 12-inch reach advantage over Mike, and a 6-inch height advantage. Andy looked like the MICHELIN MAN at 268 lbs. He had an 8-inch disadvantage in reach, and a 4-inch disadvantage in height. Anthony Joshua lost to a little sumo wrestler with man boobs.

for any unified heavyweight champ ever??? can anyone post any worst moment? - -When you showed up. Wearing diapers.

Buster Douglas was an average fighter who was known as a quitter. Tyson was a monster who, apart from Bruno rocking him for a second, looked invincible. This will always be the the most embarrassing defeat.

not really embarrassing though. Huh?? Maybe you're looking at it through 2019 glasses and forgetting the magnitude of what happened. EVERYONE was talking about it. And, they weren't saying anything positive about Tyson. It was a big "WTF happened" and to see what Douglas went on to be made it even worse. AJ v Ruiz won't echo for decades. Won't be defined as THE long-shot underdog upset. There's no comparison. http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.2109672.1423587631!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_970/bustedcover.jpg

Are you just basing that off of Boxrec? Lol No Ruiz has a fantastic amateur and pro resume but slinks was good as a am but his pro resume was laughable. And he wasn’t a good fighter tbh

No, not at all. Are you new to boxing?

This thread is almost as bad as the one larry made about fighters that can claim to be the best ever never being KO'd. :lol1: Larry makes this kind of thread when someone hurts his feeling in another thread. Somone talk bad about Floyd, he maKes a Manny thred. About Wilder? He'll make a thread about Joshua. The guy is just a little too emotionally involved with these fighters.
