Most Hyped Fight of the Year

[rolshans]

Is Ruiz/AJ II the most hyped fight of the year? Might be more than Canelo vs. Jacobs or Kovalev. Everyone seems to be on the edges of their seats for Saturday.

Yeah for sure. You would think that there were 2 great fighters getting ready to lace them up.

But AJ has people excited about boxing and thats not a bad thing. Its dope

By getting the krap kicked out of himself?? I mean until Ruiz knocked him out, Joshua was relatively unknown to your average American sports fan.

Would be even more pumped if it didn't happen at such a crappy time. Freaking 12 45 PST? I won't get off work until 1 at the earliest, and I'm damn sure going to miss the UC fights even if I come in a little earlier so I could get back on time for the main event.

Love the Hunter vs Povetkin fight as well.

Most knew in advance that Canelo would get a points win in Vegas over Jacobs and KO washed up Kovalev. Canelo was a 5 to 1 betting favorite to win both of those fights. Most are not sure what will happen in the Ruiz vs AJ rematch.

Damn. I forgot all about the west coast.

I'm not complaining too much about 3:45 EST -- although it'll likely be 4:45 EST if we're being honest. Some boxing and college football on at the same time works for me.

I NEVER got the hype for AJ, because it DEFINETLY isnt his skill set that got his fans pumped. But any fighter that gets views up for any reason has to be good for the sport right?

Absolutely! I watched the first fight alone, just me and my DAZN app. I'll watch the rematch with a suddenly interested group of friends

The fight is hyped because of the first fight. The hype would be over by Sunday.
