I really thought Joshua was much more sound as a boxer
After tonight , I can’t say that anymore
His greatest fear is his opponent’s power
He had no answer what so ever
Dude I don't know what the heck was wrong with Joshua tonight. He wasn't fighting tall at all. Kept bending down to Ruiz's level, leaning over his lead foot, barely throwing the jab and when he did it was just a flicking jab, kinda like Mosley used to do. I don't know what happened during his training camp but he didn't look like himself in this fight at all.
Joshua was having an off night for sure, he didn't look structured at all from round one on.
Andy Ruiz is also better than anyone gave him credit for.
Joshua needs to learn from his mistakes, he is klitschko esque in the chin department so he needs to learn to nullify and survival skills, his days of trading shots are done
I'm super happy for Ruiz but he's still Andy Ruiz. AJ's chin and stamina were suspect for years. Guess what, they got exposed.
Credit to Andy for being the guy to do it but we've seen Ruiz before (though half the forum acts like they haven't) and he's not exactly a world beater.
I admit I was shocked too. I was surprised at Joshua's lacking heart and endurance also. Is it possible Hearn knew this was possible as he was matching him over the years. Is that why he didn't want him to rematch Whyte?
