Originally posted by SchoolTheseCats View PostCurious to know which 4 rounds you scored clear for aj I could only give him two with one of them being a toss up round
Scoring is obviously subjective, so I don't mind anyone saying I'm flat-out wrong but rightly or wrongly as the champion and the A-side those rounds where Joshua kept the distance and landed the jab were always going to be scored to him, and likely will be in a rematch.
To illustrate the point:
First judge scored 1, 2 and 4 for AJ
Second judge scored 1, 2 and 5 for AJ
Third judge scored 1, 2, 4 & 5 for AJ
In my estimation, AJ has to make the whole fight (or at least 7-8 rounds) look like those rounds to regain his titles. I'm sceptical as to whether he can.Last edited by Weebler I; 06-24-2019, 03:20 AM.

Originally posted by Damn Wicked View PostI think that was a significant part of Joshua's failure. He worked hard to stay at range for a hard charging Povetkin but he didn't bother to keep his distance with Ruiz...In fact every time Joshua got caught with big shots was because he elected to trade on the inside...A fighter should never do that with a guy who has faster hands and throws combos.

Originally posted by Jkp View PostRuiz face was much more messed up than Parkers at end of the fight. But it was very close for sure.
A great fight really, 2 fastest pairs of hands in the business.

styles make fights. joe parker has a legit chin and he was athletic enough to work and win a decision in auckland.
keep in mind that this was a MAJORITY DECISION IN AUCKLAND NEW ZEALAND!
ruiz has better skills and he should beat parker in a rematch if he's motivated and the cards are fair. keep in mind that ruiz in 2016 was actually 10 lbs heavier than he was in 2015. hopefully now he's got a fire lit under his ass and he's not going to the taco truck 3-4 nights a week.
