Comments Thread For: Will Anthony Joshua's Mind Be Right For The Ruiz Rematch?

[Tyistall]

Man, I love how you idiots think that Ruiz is somehow unbeatable now hahaha. Like he's Ali, Foreman and Tyson rolled into one fat punk. He's not. He had a great night on AJ's bad night, that's it. I know you all hate him so much that you are savoring the moment but that's all it was, a moment. Just like most guys have had a fat girl night, AJ had a night where he lost to a fat dude. Now he will refocus and smash him like he should have the first time. Then you idiots will have other stuff to say about him while praising Wilder and Fury and the parade of bums that they fight.

One has to understand the position Joshua has he has to take it it's not the 1990's with unpopular Lewis NOT liked to much and what exactly the current top line up is NOW and that's guys over 6'3 that average 6'5 nowadays so it would be a huge mistake not taking the rematch when he won't have many guys under the 6'3 Mark to fight so he will want the experience fighting the much shorter guy not to fade right now.


Joshua still a favorite ,that's not just because someone is doing guess work and going by popular contest . He's the favorite because it's a set fight with no numerous fighters going to replace Ruiz like the circus when Whyte declined which set up the Miller fiasco.



Joshua by late stoppage ,probably 10th.

AJ can't fight away from home, he's going to get beat up even worse this time

Ruíz is not unbeatable, so can everyone calm down on that for one second.

If AJ doesn’t show up again in the rematch (anyone who thinks Joshua was normal that night hasn’t seen him fight before) those belts are there for the taking.

Man all of a sudden AJ is a scrub right?

Lol if he wins don’t flip flop cos this place wrote Ruiz off fully before the 1st now everyone accin like they knew Ruiz would win.

Ruiz has the resources now to have a very good camp!? AJ should be encouraged to train properly both mentally and physically keep moving around Ruiz.

Ruiz has the advantages in, speed, combinations, punch selection, toughness and defensive movement, (just the overall more skilled fighter) Ruiz is a nightmare for Joshua.

Joshua has the power, has the height but can he use the jab and move game plan for 12 rounds without getting gassed then battered?, Can he stop him early?, Ruiz took a hell of a shot after getting dropped then ducked beautifully and countered him with that temple shot.

Ruiz doesn't go into his shell when hit like pretty much all of Joshua's past opponents, he gets even more dangerous. Every time Ruiz threw in combinations Joshua would panic, when Joshua got more aggressive he got out boxed after the knockdown in round 3, Joshua is in danger at all times, massive props to him if he wins, i can't see it happening.

I think Joshua should take this.. I'd go for that big target of a belly. potshots to the solar plexus. slow him down finish him off in the later rounds. may the best man win..

Lol
It would be hard to find the solar plexus beneath that fat

AJ's problem was mental. Something happened or something they hadn't game plan for, during camp.

Simple fix -
Don't wait.
Attack, attack, attack.....from a distance.
If you need to reset, jab and circle.
When you knock him down, DON'T RUSH IN WITH YOUR CHIN UP.
They teach this in any neighborhood rec room.
He will be there for any combo you throw.

Andy doesn't really have a plan.
Plod forward.
Use some rudimentary head movements
Flail away (wide) if he has a guy against the ropes.
Not too shy to push down on a guys neck.
Appears to have ''fast'' hands because everything else about him is extremely slow.

Wow. Eddie must have really brain washed you good, if that's what you think.... lol

Stop making pathetic excuses. Anthony Johnson has always been limited boxer. Ruiz just proved what most people thought.
