Because he was hit repeatedly and hard?

Basically just did not perform well or was not allowed to

Joshua is a intelligent fighter, he has fought Ruiz Junior once so? We will see if he can adapt and comeback.

I think over the past year in general these super-heavyweights have been exposed, the super-heavyweights who people on this site think? Would walk into the 90's and wipe guys out.

What would of Mike Tyson done in there last night vs Anthony Joshua? And he would do the same to Fury & Wilder.

Lennox Lewis is a whole different ball game.

I don�t care win lose. Did I mention I don�t play video games. I�m no goy no common sense. I love my wife and my frienssi

Cause he got dropped 4 times no seriously Anthony had those deers in the headlights moments throughout the entire fight! It reminded me of when Jhonny Gonzalez kicked Abner Mares's ass !

It was a culmination of different things!

It starts with his lack of wanting to improve his game and not sensing that he was becoming complacent and losing his hunger!

It was his lack of identifying that all those muscles aren’t helping him and is lack of mobility and use of much defensive instincts is down to he can’t maneuver but so much due to the muscle mass he carries!

AJ also was a bit on edge cuz he had lots of pressure on him with it being his showcase USA debut fight and needing to 1 up Wilder’s epic KO of Breazeale!

It was also the style match up, Ruiz is used to fighting guys much bigger than him and stronger than him his entire boxing life!

He’s mentioned he’s fought grown men bigger and stronger in the amateurs and he does it still in the pro’s so he’s fully prepared to deal with someone of AJ’s size!

AJ’s style is very basic and predictable, there are so many tendencies to pick up on with his 1-2 or the 1-1 and left hook or body jabs is about be let off that Ruiz knew he would catch and counter AJ eventually!

And also, AJ is slow, he’s not used to fighting guys faster than him! He couldn’t adjust to Ruiz’s speed at all, his only answer was a jab and Ruiz was timing his jab or parrying it with a counter ready if AJ decided to throw the right hand!

AJ’s ring IQ is overrated, by round 4 he should’ve just stick and moved by any means necessary!

Ruiz was the hungrier fighter and was not gonna be denied while AJ looked past him and just paid the price for thinking it was gonna be an easy night!

The first knockdown was an equilibrium shot which totally knocked all his balance away and he never recovered! He kept making the same mistake of trading with a man who can get to him faster than he could get to Ruiz!

Last but not least, AJ doesn’t have a fighters mentality anymore!

And this likely is a bad style match up for him with a chubby guy with good movement, shorter, faster hands, good power, can box and counter, inside game and is used to fighting bigger men!

Also AJ’s stamina and recovery ability isn’t good!

All of those things mixed up for it to be a pretty embarrassing and awful night for AJ!

To come back from all of this would be comeback of the year candidate!
