Comments Thread For: Anthony Joshua: Andy Ruiz is Championship Level For Sure

[Eff Pandas]

Not reallllllly, but I get it, Joshua can't say that cuz it don't help sell the fight.

Granted they do got an argument since Ruiz's one L is in a championship fight, but fighting for a vacant belt ain't the same as fighting for a title with a owner already & specifically fighting the consensus #1 guy.

Ruiz is not a bum. i wont go that far. but of course AJ should win impressively..

[Andre_parker1]

Ruiz is definitely a Mexican warrior,he won't fold after the first hard right hand he receives

[TheCell8]

He's championship level for an eating contest. Not a boxing contest.

ruiz not a bum - joshua is uninteresting

ruiz isnt a bum - joshua is uninteresting
beat an old klitscko
parker lets face it - is a hack

joshuas fights arent about him fighting they are more like a bodybuilding show - too much in the marketing tip
and not in a good way ... look at me and my under armour jet look at me and my boss suit ... dude who cares maybe go and things people actually like to do that we can follow along with like floyd did making vegas a destination for all of his fights

the fact he named his management company 258 is cheesy
not authentic like the money team
we all work hard and dont need some corny moniker to tell the world that
lets face it - he hoarded the belts up in england but doesnt have the green one - which most ppl care about as the biggest
so ...
keep feeding us these loser fights but dont act like a hero
fight wilder or fury and we will find out what you are made of
you fell pretty quickly to vlad - i say wilder sparks u and fury well he'll just tie you up for 12 itll be boring

Ruiz Jr. is not gonna get knocked out in round 1 like Breazeale. I think Ruiz can make it to round 4-6 and even winning one or two rounds before getting KTFO. Ruiz not only got fast hands, he can box, move his head and i believe Joshua gonna have a hard time against him until Ruiz runs out of gas. I think this fight turns out pretty much like the Povetkin-fight.

I’m really looking forward to this match up, like most I fully expect Joshua to win but I’m starting to get more intrigued by this fight. I think it will take 6-9 rounds for AJ to get the win

still not sure why ortiz didn't take the joshua fight.what did he have to lose? i suspect bs politics here. ruiz is probably better than miller but he's just too small and he doesn't crack hard enough to beat joshua. boxing bs at it's usual.

Can I propose an NBA American sports style that is possible and would keep the public on both sides of the ocean a little happier while they wait for the next big matchup in the Fury Joshua Wilder trifecta. Eddie Hearn trades Dillian White to the PBC for one fight in the USA against Wilder in november or December this year. Al Haymon sends Luis Ortiz to matchroom/ dazn to fight Joshua at around the same time. Dazn has to give Ortiz at least 7 to 8 million and i think they will. PBC has to make Whyte/Wilder a US pay per view. hearn has to make it a PPV in England. If Whyte shows his a** in the prelims and promos like he usually does that should get him at least 8-10 million (probably more) counting his back end stuff. both new fights are more exciting to the public than rematches. Whyte has become beloved in England and the US really likes Ortiz and his Cuban escape and sick daughter story. it's a 1 fight deal for both with rematch clauses if the travelers win. i think both champions probably win get paid well and build the hype for their eventual fight.

I fully expect AJ to take care of Ruiz within 3 rounds but then again....it took him 7 to beat Breazeale ��
