    Please, Please Please stop comparing Joshua to Floyd

    Floyd never fought yet alone lost to a fat, short obese guy..PLEASE stop it..its ******..Nice adjustment by Joshua, but come one man lets stop acting like Ruiz is even a decent boxer period..It was an embarrassing lose and he corrected it ..nothing more nothing less

      Ruiz in the first fight was a very high risk, low reward opponent...so I agree that the comparisons to Floyd and his later career are not appropriate in this case.

          Can someone please point to a Floyd fight where he was on his bike circling the ring for 3 minutes of every round like Joshua did to Ruiz?

          Joshua fought like Lara, not Floyd.

              Joshua fought like Lara, not Floyd.
              Lara literally turned his back and ran. He is the only boxer I would accuse of running (Canelo fight).

              Joshua fought similar to Wlad/Ward/Mayweather. He fought on the backfoot and used his jab a lot.

              Mayweather did that against Baldomir and Maidana 2.

                  HWs always have high KO ratio especially when fighting average B grade opponents like in the modern era.

                  Floyd 54% KO ratio
                  Manny 54.93% KO ratio.
