Let's Be Real: Two of Ruiz' KDs of Joshua Were Pushes

Could have called them that way but it would have been to Joshua’s detriment. The mandatory 8 count was Anthony’s friend not his enemy.

Once in each of those KD rounds had Andy helping out with a push. I'm not saying Ruiz didn't have his number, but some judges--when they see a push like that--don't call it a knockdown. Apparently clever fighters know how to lend a helping hand when they see a moment of poor balance in their opponent. IIRC in first rd, Hopkins helped Calzaghe to the floor that way. Clever lads. Best thing tho for Joshua. Else he might have sustained brain damage because he didn't have it that night. Lol. Almost as bad as Pac fans who said JMM tripped Manny.

Push down or knock down Joshua still got koed

Irrelevant. Doesn't change the result of the fight. If anything it prolonged the fight, allowing Joshua to get a count.

The fact that we are talking about multiple knockdowns of Joshua by Ruiz is too much to take in
