    Which has been proven to be false.

      Those aren’t facts you now making excuses for him, I don’t like boxing fans making excuses for boxers like you are making for Joshua here, him being nervous, having a punch resistance etc. Weak fans make weak excuse but like you said it’s your personal opinion. Not his, which doesn’t defer from how I feel like Ruiz was mentally weak for not training when faced with money.

        You got your personal opinion about Andy Ruiz and I got mine about Joshua.

        He was acting peculiar leading up to the start of the fight.

          The ring size was legal. Why not use it? Some say AJ ran, I say he boxed. He knew he could out-box Ruiz, not out-brawl him. If Fats couldn't hang, that's on him.

            I couldn’t care less about your personal opinion about Joshua, that’s you.. My fact is based on Ruiz own words. Yours is based on emotions. You are hurt. Triggered... Can’t help you there. Ruiz himself said it, he didn’t train for a fight that would make him have his own legacy. That is a weak minded fighter. Your biggest fight of your career and you let the money get to you after just one fight. My opinion is based on facts. Not fanboyism that you are trying to project here

            “But But Joshua got KOed he is weak chinned, nervous about the bright lights of big ol America....” Excuses... He got KTFO because his opponent was game and hungry... F all your weak excuse for Joshua disguised as “Opinion”

              The ring size was what it was because Ruiz signed a contract saying it could be and the Org's/bodies involved agreed upon it

              Nothing much more too it

              Ruiz knew what was up.

              Anyone calling AJ a runner DKSAB

              Andy got shown up for how he showed up

                It's just your OPINION that Andy Ruiz is mentally weak. Getting sidetracked by suddenly having fame and money doesn't necessarily mean he is weak, it could simply be that he was young and human.

                But your bias doesn't allow for other explanations besides the one you already cooked up in your head.

                A lot of people commented on Joshua's odd behavior not just me. And based on how Ruiz scrambled his brains it's quite realistic to question AJ's chin.

                  Nope not just an opinion, backed up with facts. Ruiz own words. He isn’t young, he is a professional. He is weak minded and the fact that he turned up not training is your evidence. He yung doe doesn’t apply to 30 year old boxers, who started boxing at the age of six. Your ignorance can be cured, your ******ity cannot be.

                    Did Ruiz say in his own words that he was mentally weak? No.

                    It doesn't matter how stubborn you want to be about it. That's just the truth.

                      Yes he did. Those were his own words. It’s you that can’t deal with the truth. He did so himself. Please let’s talk more about how Joshua got KTFO....
