    Thing is idk if there was a win to be had here once Big Baby effed up the show.

    Ruiz is a fat ass.

    Hunter is a lil unproven HW.

    Ortiz woulda been a win, if that whole thing hadn't of gone sideways.

    Kownacki was too fat & if he'd have gotten the fight he'd probably have looked worse then Ruiz.

    The Whyte rematch woulda been a great late sub fight IF the fight was in the UK.

    So yea its underwhelming, but idk what they coulda done except cancel the date or went back to the UK. And I'm kinda thinking DAZN is pushing Joshua into the US more than Joshua &/or Eddie were planning on bringing the show to the US.
    Don't forget this fight was never planned for the US. Joshua was supposed to be fighting at Wembley on April 13. It was never a strategically planned move.

    So add Wilder, Fury and Whyte (prior to Miller's PEDs) to that list.

      I thought Miller was the plan from day 1 when they had that awkward face to face at the DAZN launch. I even mentioned it at the time and was called an idiot.

      even made a joke about how bored the dark skinned guy in the background looks at the prospect of the fight

        268 going into the AJ fight, and he was 262 in his last fight, but he looks in better shape than when he fought at 250 last year.
        He was holding his stomach in at the weigh in.

        You will see tonight that he isn’t slimmer than his last fight lol. He’s heavier and in the case of Ruiz it just means more fat.

        He’s about 5’11 and 4ft wide. He could make cruiserweight or even 175 if he wasn’t such a slob

          Not sure what you mean. Of course June 1 in the US was planned.

          The April date never got off the ground. It doesn't even sound like they were serious about making Whyte an offer the way Whyte states it.

          And I suspect DAZN pushed them to make that move cuz Joshua in the UK isn't doing anything for DAZN.

            The fat a$$ won’t leave the Oreos alone he said his weight would be closer to 250 or so and he comes in at 268.Hes going to use his body odor and sweaty salty body to slime AJ ghostbusters style to get the win.

              He poses like that at all the weigh ins. He looks leaner IMO. In the face, the arms, etc.

                but boxing fans act like this is a damn runway show.
                He also didn’t need a medical exemption like the guy he’s fighting according to D.Whyte.

                  Ruiz have never even fought a 12 round match before, and is one doughnut away from a heart attack.

                  "pro" "athlete"

                  lol neither should be used to describe that lard ass. He is in a cardio based sport.

                  NFL Linebackers are trimmer than that and they only have to run for 5 second bursts.

                    When you make a dumb, uneducated statement, and then get called on it, you don't continue to plow ahead. You make yourself look dumber. To save face you just say, "Fair enough, that was a dumb thing to say..." Laugh it off, whatever. But don't plow ahead even after you've been exposed for saying something dumb and exposed for having a lack of knowledge.

                      While that’s a convenient story, Dillian Whyte is one of the last people I would believe about anything.
