Let's be honest, Andy Ruiz is not getting past the first round

[TBear]

Ruiz is just a late notice fill in. Nobody is expecting a fight here. Take it for what it is and enjoy the fight..

[low blows]

Ruiz can take a beating, watch the Tor Hammer fight. Early in the fight Hammer hit him with a 4 punch combination that whipped his head like a test crash dummy and he kept coming an eventually took Hammer's heart.

Joshua will need to surgically break him down. I suspect he will turn his face into a pizza before he has a ten count.

[Blond Beast]

I actually think a lot people are sleeping on Ruiz. He has fast hands, throws good combos, has decent power and good chin, he's tough. Plus he's Mexican.

He'll make this fight entertaining for as long as it lasts. If it goes the distance I won't be surprised either.

Can’t get more vague than that. What do u really see happening?

Joshua is going to come in and take his head off within 2 and a half rounds. I hate to sound like a hater but I can't stand fat heavyweights. Like dude, I can understand being a little overweight but you're a boxer, and it just looks tacky af to me. Shows a lack of discipline in a division where you must be focused at all times.

Ruiz having some success on the inside for a first few rounds, ****ing Joshua to the body but getting caught with an uppercut a lot. Then Joshua finds his range, keeps Ruiz at the end of his jab, and catches Ruiz with the right cross again and again.

Fight gets stopped on cuts in round 10. No knockdowns.

This, there's no excuse for looking like a pudding in the ring. Look at Fury two years ago, don't tell me they cant shift that weight.

Yep. I can understand Fury, he's 6'9. A guy that tall can only be so big, but Fury is quick, agile, boxes beautifully and isn't just fat. I mean guys like Miller, Kownacki, Ruiz, Arreola, and so on.

[Toffee]

If AJ is as good as people say he is then yes, this shouldn't go past a round. AJ hasn't had a first round stoppage win since almost 4 years ago, against "The Irn Bru Warlord" Gary Cornish though. Also bear in mind that a lot of AJ's early stoppages were overeager referee stoppages against no-hopers. Don't be surprised if this goes a few rounds.

You don't get extra money for winning in the first round.

Joshua is more of a boxer then Wilder. He'll feel him out first.

Yeah but you know what will happen, he'll take Ruiz out in the 6th or something, and the Wilder fanboys will be like "Wilder would have taken him out with the 1st shot". Maybe so, but it's such a ****** and pointless comparison.

Almost like there's some kind of shame in actually doing some...boxing...

I don’t think anyone with sufficient knowledge of the 2 fighters would be expecting an early finish. Ruiz will almost definitely see the second half of this fight.
