    Nothing beats Ruiz over Joshua. Even though I gave Ruiz a chance when a lot of these casual posters were busy trying to downplay him and calling anyone that gave him a chance one of “Hearn disciples” etc I just didn’t think he would stop Joshua the way he did. I thought he might win but get robbed on the scorecard.

      While being an 40-1 underdog or more was an unreal epic moment
      What I want to know is... Who put money down on a KO win for Ruiz and won the lottery? Lmao

        Has to be pac over Thurman. Did you not see the fight? Thurman got rocked multiple times and fought back like a true undefeated champion. Joshua folded like a tent after he got hit. Please no comparison . Joshua is overhyped

          I'm a huge Pacquiao fan, but Ruiz having an upset win on Joshua was insane.

          Pacquiao vs Thurman was a 50/50 fight.

          but Ruiz was a huge underdog

            Pac was the betting favorite vs Thurman.

            Ruiz was like what an 8-1 underdog, something like that.

              Ruiz vs AJ was def more shocking and more conclusive/definitive.

              The Manny/Thurman is a runner up. Great win and tough close fight.

                Glad to see your back Tony.
                I went with Pacman.
                That was just a great back n forth fight with both fighters putting all they had into this one and for Manny to come out on top is mind blowing.
                I also loved seeing AJ get ***ed up and just hope Ruiz can do it again, which I think he will if the fights in the USA.

                  It's like Pac vs. Thurman is the fight of the year, and Ruiz vs. Joshua is the upset of the year.

                    Has to be Ruiz. After Buster Douglas , the biggest upset I've seen.
