    Al Haymon must be ecstatic now! got the last laugh.

    With Ruiz knocking Joshua out, Al now has all the belts on his side since Ruiz is also a Haymon fighter and now Al is in control of the heavyweight division. He can milk the hell out of PBC fights between Wilder, Ruiz and Ortiz and have the ball in his court for a while untill Fury decides to face one if his champions and they make a huge ppv event.

    Some money was lost last night for sure as Joshua vs Wilder was supposed to generate a lot of money so both sides lost that big payday, but like I said in house PBC fights will also do great numbers on PPV and Haymon will walk out of this as the true winner in the end. The only scenario where things can go south for him is if Ruiz lost to Joshua in an immediate rematch.

      joshua is invoking his rematch clause for a U.K. fight. If AJ wins that all goes back to normal.

        How does it all go back to normal
        Imo , AJ lost quite a bit of leverage
        From a financial point up to a boxing point of view

          That's definitely true and I also wrote that in my comment. If Joshua can get him back soon this will distupt all of this. Haymon and Ruiz will make a shlt load of money in the rematch though. It will be a huge fight in the UK.

            Why do people think Al Haymon is some sort of *******?

                I know your a Wilder hater
                I don’t care about that but the whole heavyweight division has been shook up
                Your Hearn and AJ will bend a little more than they would yesterday
                That’s how

                  Drawing power won't decrease, it will actually increase now especially if he can stop Ruiz in an immediate rematch. Fighters showing vulnerability is sometimes great for building anticipation.

                  Boxingwise of course he got exposed big time, bad fundamentals, lack of head movement and defensive skills on the inside and a very suspect chin. One of the reasons why I never gave Ruiz a legit chance coming in was the fact that he never hurt anybody at the top level and didn't have an extraordinarily high KO ratio. Ruiz hurting and KOing Joshua was the only way he could beat Joshua and he did it. I was really surprised that Joshua's legs completely became like wet spaghettis after he got caught by Ruiz and it shows lack of chin imo.

                    There’s a rematch clause, Nov.
