Comments Thread For: Andy Ruiz Not Convinced "Slim" Joshua Can Take a Good Shot

[SUBZER0ED]

This is by far, the most anticipated HW rematch of 2019! Was the first fight a fluke? Did AJ go in unprepared? Or is Ruiz a beast disguised as a fat, putrid, disgusting mess? Tune in on December 7th to find out!

Wilder has ko power and that’s it. He boxes horribly and has horrible footwork. He was getting outboxed by a mummy in Ortiz. Didn’t win one single round and was hurt several times. Who has he faced at the elite level to give you that impression. Cuz his best opponent is fury. And he got schooled.

And NOTHING you just said contradicts his statement what a waste of time for you lol

Yes, Wilder was losing rounds but that doesn't mean he was being out-boxed. Strategy is very much a part of boxing and Wilder's strategy was to become accustomed to Ortiz's rhythm and lull him into making a mistake and then lights out. This worked. Against Fury in the rematch Wilder will use a similar strategy but will move on Fury much earlier. If Fury goes for a win by KO which is what he says he will do he has no chance of winning.

He also said he had a hi boxing IQ. Sure buddy. He couldn’t ko fury. And when he dropped him fury came back and won that same round. Again he hasn’t faced anyone that is elite aside from fury for you to say that statement. And we all know he got a gift draw.

Come on, he was clearly being outboxed. That’s why he Ortiz hurt him on multiple occasions. The guys has no game plan or strategy other than being perfect for 2 seconds. And if his team does have one for him. He’s not capable of executing it. Nothing he’s done says otherwise. He has to rely on landing that right hand. And that’s all he has.

... one cannot lose weight on the ear or temple... and even less on the brain...

IDK??? I know I lose brain cells reading some of the posts on this site??? My brain feels a lil lighter???

And Holyfield begs to differ on the ear losing weight...

And that's all he needs because it's clearly working.

I don't see lightning striking twice. AJ got hit with a once in a million punch and never recovered. I really believe that AJ now training exclusively for Ruiz will ultimately destroy him. I predict a 5th to 6th round stoppage with Ruiz being completely overwhelmed. Call em like I see em and if Ruiz's best outing before AJ was a loss to Parker then I just hope Ruiz banked some of his lottery money. One hit wonder

I agree 100%. AJ took him for granted and that KD didn't help. Now he's got plenty of film and motivation. I'm betting the under as well.
