just because Ruiz beat Joshua doesn't mean Wilder would. There is a good chance Ruiz might beat Wilder too.
I was wrong about Wilder/Joshua

It's not like Wilder looked amazing in all of his fights. When he fights an opponent that is not completely tailor-made for him he struggles and only wins because of his right hand. Sure Joshua is flawed too but to think Wilder beating Joshua is the foregone conclusion is delusional.Comment

He lands that right hand on everyone....it's not coincidence at this pointIt's not like Wilder looked amazing in all of his fights. When he fights an opponent that is not completely tailor-made for him he struggles and only wins because of his right hand.

Wilder faced two of the top 5 hws in the last year and a half and put them down 5x
Stop acting like it's an accidentComment

I never said it was an accident but I would say it makes him one dimensional. I would actually favor him against Joshua at this point but just because Joshua lost to a good fighter doesn't mean he is bum all of the sudden and it doesn't mean Wilder would win for sure.Comment

That one dimension rears its head every time
Sure nothing is automatic or 100 percent guaranteed
It's the way aj lost though ....gassed...wanting no more ....getting hit ....showing a percieved lack of heart
And people knowing Wilder is almost the exact opposite....Wilder is a killer and wants it ....ur really going to have to hurt him to finish himComment

Joshua until Ruiz fight was never truly punished for having too much muscle and being stiff. This is boxing not body building. I have no idea how wilder would react if his stamina was this bad. Wilder got hurt before but I have never seen him even close to being as gassed as Joshua. Joshua needs to stop weight lifting and do more cardio.That one dimension rears its head every time

yeah I knew if wilder landed he'd beat aj and aj is there to land on with poor stamina... but I always thought aj would at least give him some trouble for a few rounds, not anymore. I was never sold on the aj hype. he himself is a good guy and it seems like all the hype and pressure from hearn and the fanatics made him mentally fold because he knew himself he wasn't on the level they were making him out to be, thus the psychiatrist and mental breakdown b4 the fight.Comment

wilder somewhat uses his jab whereas aj cant jab to save his life and gets tired, ruiz can catch wilder in a mix up but if wilder fights smart and doesn't gas (he has a tank) he will KO ruiz imoIt's not like Wilder looked amazing in all of his fights.

You are absolutely right. That was why old man Barry Hearn said that he preferred prolonging the Deontay Wilder fight for as long as possible; Even until 2020 because he, McCracken and Eddie all knew how vulnerable Anthony Joshua was.
He is chinny, has bad stamina and can't take a punch. He would have survived the onslaught had he been in there with an old, washed out and past his prime Wladimir Klitschko or perhaps even Luis Ortiz but not against someone his own age and peer.
He wouldn't have survived it.Comment
