Comments Thread For: Joshua: Ruiz Will Face 'Completely Different Beast' In Rematch

"And I think I fought the best Ruiz in the ring that night." -AJ

Not so sure about that! He only had a 5 week training camp! He had just fought on April 20th! I think he'll be better too!

FFS how many times??!! Ruiz was in training for a full 15 weeks including camp for the Dimitrenko cake walk. He’s stated this himself in interviews.

If he goes for a KO, he will be stopped again.

That was for Dimitrenko, not Joshua! You make it sound so simple! If it that's easy, then why didn't Joshua run it back 6 weeks later?

There’s a certain kryptonite feel with AJ vs. Ruiz. When Wlad floored him he handled it relatively well. But he needs and was given a couple of rounds to recover by Wlad. Ruiz does the opposite.

AJ needs to totally shake up his plan, style and mind set for this rematch and moving forwards. He needs what Emmanuel Steward done for Wlad all them years ago after a KO. Not convinced McCracken certainly alone can do that.

Most of you idiots have no idea what you're talking about. Joshua is juicing? Ha! You ever heard of VADA testing?

That said I think the rematch goes the same way as the first fight. AJ has the physical attributes to beat Ruiz, but he doesn't have the heart. Ruiz is a natural fighter and Joshua is not.

Joshua seems to have a strange view of thinking. It's the conplete opposite. This was not the best Ruiz and if Joshua thinks it was, he is in for a rude awakening. And if he thinks Ruiz thinks he got the best Joshua, he is sorely mistaken as well. Ruiz knows he was overlooked and Joshua was eyeing the unification fight. Joshua really needs go get the right ppl around him.

I agree. He will be different. This time hes going in the ring scared with an L on his record at the hands of the same fat boy hes facing.

He needs to fight tall this time and work behind the jab. Tie up when the in-fighting starts, and don't force the KO.

He has the tools to easily cruise to a decision in London. And I don't mean a robbery.

good plan but that takes stamina

AJ didn't get to where he is by having no heart.

How you gonna watch the fights with Whyte, Wlad and Povetkin and tell people he's got no heart?

Even in the Ruiz fight he got up 4 damn times and kept swinging. What do you expect exactly?
