Comments Thread For: Wilder: Just Because Joshua Lost Once Doesn't Mean It's Over

[DaNeutral.]

How come Wilder is saying this? I read an interview with him not that long ago where he said he knew Joshua was a hyped bum, that kind of loss was always coming cuz he is a fraud and now Joshua is DONE IN THIS SPORT.

What he says in this interview is the Polar opposite. But then Wilder is the one who wants a Body in the ring BUT at the same time wants his opposition to go home safe to his family. He is a babbling moron.

You think Ruiz fought guys similar to AJ? Please tell me you're joking here? Ruiz fought garbage and bums other than Parker before he fought AJ. And he lost that fight.

Actually I did, I saw him against Joe Hank who had a similar built like Joshua, and I thought this guy might be short, chubby/fat but he knows how to fight taller guys etc. Obviously Joshua was on a different level to Hank but I thought the experience would help Ruiz.

You must not follow too closely because this isn't something new... Wilder said this maybe a month or more ago on an ESPN interview. As for the body thing it's to sell fights and get people talking, the same way Mike Tyson did... though he was a little crazy. If you've ever seen any normal interview with Wilder that's not fight promo he's a relaxed down to earth guy.

The biggest idiot in boxing world always saying different things every time

Wilder must be really pissed. Joshua is coming from a lose which he has to revenge and Whyte is a cheater. And Chisora will likely fight Parker. It will take a little time to get Hearn`s payday for Wilder.

Only someone who is insane would consider that complete idiot Wilder, sane. He's even saying he's up there with the greats in this piece even though he's not beat a single good fighter. he's a clown who is nothing but deluded.

I don't think you get the irony, friend

Why do you keep talking like AJ is the ONLY payday?

I figured AJ should be the one pissed. I mean like you just said HE IS COMING OFF A LOSS!!!

There are still plenty of money fights out there!!!!

You guys are still talking about guys wanting pay days with Joshua lmao. Guys are still fighting and y'all are just still talking. The world doesn't revolve around a Joshua pay day like you think lmao. You've never talked like this before because you've never had a fighter who made money like Joshua. Joshua still doesn't have the respect of the boxing world. Keep talking about his money. That's all you can talk about lmao. It isn't like you can talk about what he's done in the ring lol...

They do?

I used to call Sydney for work and it was generally in the afternoon/early evening which was morning in Sydney.

I have never rated Joshua that highly so I don't know why people think him losing to Ruiz is bad, people overhyped him so much, prior to Ruiz I thought the guy had fought guys who are similar to Joshua, even though I didn't pick him to beat Joshua, I wasn't shocked that he did.

Especially at heavyweight where a single punch can change everything.
For me I give Ruiz more credit than criticising Joshua who in my opinion is quite limited.

I honestly thought Ruiz had a shot to win as well because he’s a good fighter. But Joshua is way more accomplished in the ring and took Wlads best shots, and dominated Parker, not to mention the KO of Charles Martin to take his paper belt.

Taking all that into consideration, I just didn’t see Ruiz dominating. I’m sorry. Had the fight been a close fight I don’t think people would be riding Joshua so hard. But he was basically destroyed by a 50-1 underdog or something. Anytime that happens it’s gotta come as at least somewhat of a shocker.
