    This

    WWE level ''drama''. Since AJ cannot top Wilders performance, he's going to have to be creative.

    He might as well get some rds in. I say AJ puts an end to the farce by rd 7. When Andy wakes up, he will yap about going back to the drawing board and getting another shot.

    Some people actually think May had trouble with Conor
    I remember your post and was nodding my head in agreement. Part of the reason why I was watching closely was to see how AJ would handle all this pressure and he utterly crumbled.

    Having watched the fight over again I noticed AJ's trainer told him what he needed to do correctly. It was AJ that went for the KO and got rocked. So he was going for a big knockout that's for sure 100% and wasn't expecting Ruiz to stand up to his power and be that game.

      It's a fact it was a massive upset.

      He was expected to win by the vast majority of media and fans
      So. True boxing fans knew what Ruiz brought to the table. Some compares this loss to Tyson Douglass. Foh with that lunacy.

          It’s easy to say afterwards.

          Of course Ruiz can fight, so can Povetkin, Parker (who had a close fight with Ruiz), Povetkin etc..Joshua saw them all off, so there was no indication Ruiz was as good as them except Parker.

          What i will say and agree with is that the shock in terms of pure boxing is not a HUGE shock, Ruiz has ability and AJ is vulnerable. The shock factor is amplified 1000x because AJ is such a star.

          That said, i still expected AJ to get the job done. It’s no surprise to me he lost a fight because i knew it was coming, just didn’t think Andy Ruiz was the man to do it.

            Lewis Rahman was an upset. Joshua Ruiz wasn’t.

              this is you watching a fight and then saying "i told you so," which nobody in the f#cking wolr dgives a **** about. really, nobody gives a f#ck what you claim you thought. i can't see how that's hard to follow. did you bet? that's a real victory. that's you really knowing what you're talking about and putting your money where your mouth is. otherwise you're just talking out of your ass and nobody gives a ****.

                Because Tyson-Douglas was 42-1. This was 40-1. Similar levels of upset.

                Ruiz wasn't in the Top 10 unlike Buster Douglas in 1990.

                    ****en loser post lmao. Respond to his mofo!!!


                    Stop acting like this was a huge upset.

                    Any true boxing fan knew that Ruiz had more skill than Joshua but that Joshua had the size advantage.

                    Stop acting like you’re surprised Ruiz won, lmao. I’m not surprised in the slightest that Ruiz won. And this fight isn’t one of the biggest upsets in boxing history. Foh...
