Disgraceful become a world champ and you come in 15 pounds fatter for your next fight. Ruiz became Buster Douglas 2.0 who came in overweight and lost next fight after Tyson upset

Aj boxed well and credit to him for winning,but he is still just one punch away from a loss. Ruiz just followed him around he should have stood in the middle of the ring and waited for Aj and counter him again. My only knock on Aj is that before the fights he said he was looking for the knockout, not for any second in any minute of any round he never went for the knockout.

Good gameplan from AJ.

Being disappointed in Ruiz shouldn't be anything new for those who liked him before his upset victory...he always lacked 100% dedication. I'm still happy he had his moment though and people know who he is now - still plenty of fights for him to make once he's back home.

I thought MAYBE the fight not being in Vegas would help Ruiz stay focused and not having people coming out of the woodwork to distract him, btu guess that didn't really matter. AJ grinded the whole time

Ruiz just said out of his own mouth, he didn’t prepare like he should have. He didn’t listen to his team during training and trained himself. I didn’t get that part. They didn’t have the right preparation. Seems like it went to his head and he wasn’t hungry enough. So give Joshua credit and stop making excuses for Ruiz. Joshua fought the fight he needed to, to keep his career moving forward. It’s boxing. No one that risks their life inside the ring needs to fight how fans want them to or how the other fighter wants them to.

I was rooting for Joshua and called a UD for him, but he looked 100% scared in there lol

Agree, if there is a 3rd fight 'It is a 50/50' fight again. Ruiz throughout the entire fight looked the more dangerous fighter, and was unaffected by Joshua's power.

I picked Joshua to win, but was voicing my concerns over whether he had overcooked it in training 'Joshua's trademark herculean strength, seemed to be non evident' but nevertheless, he executed his box/move game plan'.

I don't think Joshua has exorcised any demons, as this victory was not emphatic or dominating 'He won, while basically trying to score points/survive'.

Ruiz begging for another payday. **** him.

Begging for a final payday. He can't beat anyone in the top ten.

I hope Joshua fans never called Mayweather a runner

[kiDynamite92]

Ruiz was in disgusting shape.

[NaijaD]

That fight made Wilder look like an ATG
I hope the camel jockeys somehow gonna freeze the fighters purses
Or take them hostage for screwing the spectators

You clearly don’t understand boxing man, it’s not for you.

Julio Cesar Chavez could cut off the ring great.

Andy Ruiz just has very slow feet.

Even the Great Chavez Sr had issues with Movement like with most of the fight vs Meldrick Taylor, Pernell Whitaker and the first Frankie Randall fight
