AJ has no way of surviving

[BoZz]

Strange how Ruiz is this HW juggernaut now.
Speaking of Wlad, AJ actually beat him, albeit an old one.

I think AJ might lose this, but it won't be for lack of ability or skill. Or, because Ruiz is some kind of monster. If it happens, it'll be AJ's mental shortcomings.

He is when it comes to Joshua, Wilder or Fury would have no problem beating Ruiz, Fury would box his head off and Wilder would use his jab till he lands that big right,and Ruiz would not go in and try to brawl against Wilder because once he felt the right he would have second thoughts, against Joshua he has no respect, Joshua landed and dropped him but Ruiz did not respect it, he himself said that he didn't feel hurt.

Joshua has never impressed really, his best win is against an old Klitschko who caused him problems as well and he struggled against some fighters which wouldn't last 2 rounds with the other two HW champions I mentioned above. He doesn't have what it takes to keep Ruiz at bay, he has zero movement, his jab is rubbish. I really think Ruiz is Joshua's nightmare opponent

LMAO. Your first sentence sums this whole situation up.

When the hell did I claim Ruiz is a HW juggernaut? Learn to read son I’m claiming that his style is bad for AJ.

And it doesn’t matter if AJ beat old Wlad because styles make fights and Ruiz style is wrong for Joshua

Joshua looked to have recovered and fought a very effective round 5. IMO, the 5th was the only clear round for Joshua (not saying you couldn't give him the 1st or 2nd or both but they were close rounds) Unfortunately it took a lot of energy for Joshua to have a good round and the resultant 6th round was a disaster. I look at that 5th and 6th round and I too wonder how Joshua survives 12. Joshua can't coast, Ruiz won't let him and he can't go 12 expending a lot of energy. If he can't hurt Ruiz, and he couldn't in the first go round, he will have to push himself every round nonstop.


On the other hand, if you operate under the assumption that Joshua got ruined by a single temple shot in the 3rd, then all this^^ goes out the window, so there's that.

This era of internet fans.

Ruiz, with a 66% KO ratio - is an unstoppable hard hitting knockout machine... based on one fight.

Joshua, with his Olympic gold medal, World Champion in his 16th fight, multiple unifications - has absolutely no chance and can't box... based on one fight.

Neither of those things are true. But these guys can't see anything beyond the last fight. Their attention span doesn't cope with it.

And they had the nerve to mock Logan Paul v KSI.

They're the Logan Paul v KSI generation!

If you don’t understand styles make fights then you don’t know the first thing about boxing.

Actually, it would be cool if AJ actually DIES in this fight. (In keeping with the title of this thread.)

This forum is at an all time low. People are now brazenly wishing death on boxers without ban. But I was banned to 3 weeks for just saying LDBC.

You’re a scumbag. Go say it to his face, you coward.

Lmao at you. AJ has never been anything other than decent in a not good HW division. He really cant box. Ruiz isnt that good either and it just shows how bad AJ is.

[Lopez_Boxing]

I'm just thinking it's a bad style match up for Joshua

Lmao. What a ahort fat guy with average power that has to leap in exposing himself everytime he punches?!?!? If thats a bad style matchup for AJ, AJ is in trouble lmao

I don't think that's a fair assessment of what Ruiz brings. Ruiz brings a stout chin and steady pressure every round and I think that is a bad matchup for Joshua. Mix in a good jab and decent bodywork against a guy with a small tank and a porous defense and it's not a good matchup for Joshua.

Check out the title of thread? To which I was referring?

(And actually, AJ is one of the few fighters I can think of who probably wouldn't kill me for saying that to his face.)

I don't know what LDBC means. I don't think I want to, given the source.
