    AJ vs Ruiz afterthoughts

    To me it looked like AJ dropped Ruiz and got impatient.

    Went in there sloppy, got dropped and never recovered.

    Perhaps in the back of his mind he was thinking of Wilder scoring a first round KO over Breazeale and wanted to also have a KO finish.

    I know he will probably never admit it but every other fight before this AJ was always composed and cautious.

    For some reason he just threw caution to the wind and he paid for it.

    Ruiz capitalized on his opponents error as he was supposed to do.
    Hats off to him but there’s a reason he was a no hoper and this was considered a massive upset.

    Even if he defeats AJ in the rematch he will be KO’d by Wilder In all probability.

    I believe it because his body type and style is all wrong for Wilder. Wilder seems to love short, fat stationary targets.

    The guys that give him trouble are y’all mobile targets. Because he can’t easily connect with his power.

    Just my opinions.

      Another thing people miss was that Ruiz was exhausted in the fight took a lot of breathers

      He wasn't really in a great condition going into this fight
