    After going to war with the Brits I should be gloating

    But I'm not. I think you guys ruined this place and are all crazy but I still like Joshua.



    Just know that it'll be ok. If you've followed this sport long enough and don't just latch on to fellow countrymen you've probably seen these types of upsets happen quite a few times in the past.

    After those 2 KD's in the 3rd, it really felt to me like this was going to be Ruiz's night. Every time AJ landed something big and hurt Ruiz, those fast hands came back and countered Joshua before he was ready. Maybe this is just reactionary, but I really think unless AJ changes his team, he's done. If he loses the rematch, he doesn't seem to me like the kinda guy to re-dedicate and come back from it. Even if he does beat Ruiz again, it's going to be a hell of a thing to try to hide that chin and gas tank against the top guys now that the book is out. Dare I say, he's become a rich man's David Price???

      I'm happy for Andy, but TBH I was really looking forward to Wilder vs. Joshua.

      Bittersweet night of boxing, but Wilder vs. Fury II is going to be bigger now.

            It is very possible all the titles are held by two fat men by the end of 2020.

            Gotta love this sport.

              Mannix hit the nail on the head saying he needs to adopt Vlad's style. We'll see if he can.

                Fury vs Wilder is bigger but with this loss heavyweight division has took a huge hit.. AJ was a marketable guy that brought attention and money to the division. The spotlight will now go back to the the lower weights in the boxing which is a shame cus heavyweight boxing had potential but ****** people trying to marinate fights ruined it for everyone including themselves.
