Just watched a few rounds, don’t think I need to watch it all. Joshua did what he had to, made the adjustments he had to, more power to him.
Ruiz, well, inexcusable really. But you can’t blame Joshua for that. Massive disappointment for me. And to ask for a 3rd fight..... fuck off will ya. They should say to him, right if you come in at 260lbs or less, you get your full purse. If you come in over that, you get £20!
But that’ll only waste 6 months of AJ’s time cos he’ll pull out.
All these people saying “AJ is a coward” and “he just got on his bike”, have a fucking word with yourselves. This is fucking Boxing, it’s an art. If you don’t like it, don’t watch.
But guess what? Loads DO WATCH! And that’s why he earns the big money.
So let’s address AJ’s “mental state” if they say “AJ , for this fight , you have to be 265lbs , guess what? On the money. Or “AJ, you need to come in light, 245lbs, bang, he’s on it. Tell me another HW capable of that?
Focused for 12 rounds. It’s not like he hasn’t proved he can knock people out is it?
Like that great philosopher Taylor Swift once said:
“Haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate , hate.
Players gonna play, play , play, play, play.”
