Joshua v Ruiz

[palmerq]

That was an early stoppage for me. At least give him another chance. He wasn't out on his feet or anything.

Still, that is Joshua undone and if he wants that Wilder fight he is going to have to accept a pay cut now.

Seeing the teplayyi don't know, he clearly asks joshua if he's ready to box and he does nothing maybe leans back onto the ropes, he was out of it... He could have fought on if shepardedwthat way but maybe you'd be setting him up for a lot of damage :S... Weird stoppage for sure.

It was also strange the previous round. His hands were down and he wasn't even blocking shots there, maybe you are right. He just kept going down and seemed to have no answer to fast combinations. Ruiz did take a few Tyson cues there just as he said. Joshua did seem vacant, but then suddenly protested. He was given a lot of time.

You're right there, sixth round he was looking a bit out of it, trying and failing to bait ruiz and counter him... You know I don't know what to make of it, his reaction in the corner when ref asks him ready box, it was like me when drunk :S...

He seemed really out of it mentally as if he lost his spirit

Almost Victor Ortiz-like.
