Don't sleep on Ruiz, he showed a lot in the Parker fight, he controlled the middle rounds, only a late burst by Parker gave him the fight, it was a drawish type fight.
People who are saying Hunter was better need to consider that he was put on queer street multiple times by Usyk. Is he a good fighter? Absolutely...but I think there is a strong chance Joshua just completely overpowers him and stops him in 1 or 2 rounds.
Ruiz has shown good skill, technique, hand speed and a reliable chin/engine. I think this fight is competitive early, Joshua for a tall fighter has an inconsistent jab and he pushes the straight right a bit, he's much better technically at mid-close range, I think Ruiz will bother him there as he has faster hands and he's strong enough to stay in the pocket a little. I do think Joshua's feet prob win him the fight but I like this fight, it's not as easy as people think, and to be honest no one is going to be happy unless it's Fury or Wilder but this is a legit top 10 heavyweight in my opinion
Good prediction you made a lot of people in here look like fools.
I feel a bit sorry for JP. He must rewatch the AJ fight and wonder how the ref had the audacity to break the fighters before they’d even got together on the inside.
That Italian ref would have given AJ an easy win in NY
The ref saved Joshua.
to lose to a guy like parker who was knocked out by joe molasses joyce when you have the legacy that wilder has, is god damn awfully embarassing
You obviously don't watch or know much about boxing.
