Eddie Hearn was not happy when Ruiz hit the deck

[Teddy Brenner]

Just rewatched the fight, and just sayin', look at Eddie's reaction when AJ drops Ruiz - Eddie looks shocked, no cheering, no clapping, no smiling, no encouraging his fighter in any way, just a stone-cold worried look.

Watch how Eddie reacts to that third round knock down. Just sayin'.

You are reaching. I did notice Eddie looked very calm when Joshua went down tho. Maybe he thought AJ would recover like he did vs Wlad? I didn't see how he reacted to the stoppage

[Teddy Brenner]

I always remeber Hearn running into the ring celebrating Froch-Bute...and jumping with joy at Brook-Porter and many other examples, he is really animated cheering for his fighters.

Watch the DAZN USA broadcast, when Ruiz goes down Hearn looks like it was his own fighter that hit the canvas - just a blank, concerned stare.

So I guess this is another fix was in thread.

It’s ****** considering how Joshua went for the kill in the 3rd round.

It's the same reason AJ was all smiles when he lost......all staged. He's now got a guaranteed opponent for the next year and a rematch in his own backyard.

Are you sure op?

Are you sure op?

Watch the video play out.

You'd have thought he was Ruiz' promoter.

The fix was in, it was all staged. You could see Vince McMahon hiding behind Eddie Hearn. Also look at the turnbuckles closely, it kinda has the WWE logo on them. Smfh. Boxing is fake.

Why would he give Al Haymon fighter the belt instead of one of his guys

PBC have another very marketable HW now win or lose next

So he invested that much time and money into this boxer, even had to pretend his social media was "hacked" to cover up his embarrassing behavior, etc...

Then set him up to be destroyed by an obese, potentially unmarketable nobody?

Boxing is extremely corrupt and fixed fights are a thing, especially if you follow undercards & small shows, it's common & sickening.

But this isn't how those fights look & this evidence doesn't even make sense. Hearn destroyed his own investment, then that investment temporarily decided to stray from the script, then gave up and went back to losing? lol
