They’re blaming ruiz for being fat.. cmon he was already fat the first time around.
Joshua’s strategy was what got him the win and he would’ve won the first time around had he fought the same way.
Floyd made a career moving on his bicycle, potshot, box, tie up.. wash rinse and repeat and look.. he was undefeated.
If Amir Can can be as disciplined as joshua last saturday, he would’ve avoided a couple of bad KOs too.
Duran couldn’t deal with it when sugar ray did it to him.. and he was a killer in cutting the ring off.
Pacman’s workrate plummeted when Floyd did it to him, and he was fast as fk when it comes to hand and foot speed.
Even marquez couldn’t deal with it with Chris fkn John.
So no it wasn’t ruiz being fat that handed him the loss.
It was Joshua’s strategy and im not even a fan.
The problem with your post is calling it potshotting. That is beyond dumb. The reason the punch output is lowered is because those jabs and counters hurt. You get tired of continually eating leather when you try and punch.
Ruiz weight definitely contributed to the loss but you are right that AJ boxing and moving like this gives him the best chance to win every fight he is in.
Definition of potshot is attacking when opponent’s couldn’t defend it. But oh well.
But im not against it, albeit very boring to casuals.. you win however you can win it. i’d rather joshua or ruiz knock each other out but it’s not Aj’s fault ruiz can’t do anything about it. And he’s not alone..
They put too much emphasis on the weight but he was already fat the first time what is 5% increase lol
The weight contributed, but had Joshua done that the first time he would have won and he wins another 10 times in a row doing this.
Joshua has the skills and tools, with power. Just had never used it and was too muscular.
