Wilder will keep the jab going.
Anthony Joshua Vs Andy Ruiz 2 Dec 7 Saudi Arabia (Main Event Start - 4pm ET / 1pm PT)
- Thread starter Gemini
- Start date
Wilder will keep the jab going.
If Wilder can get the jab working and keep the fight from long range than yeah wilder will land that right hand at some point and KO him, however, if Ruiz can get inside he's chopping Wilder down, Wilder's head will be a ping pong ball. Wilder isn't good at fighting inside. Ruiz can seriously box, I don't see anyone but Fury and Usyk that could outbox him, unless Andre Ward comes out of retirement and goes up to HW to do it
Lol yup, Ruiz’s arms are too short to box with God. Had Wilder knocked Ruiz down like Joshua did, no way he gets up and trade shots with him.
When Wilder senses blood.....

yup when he senses blood and when he get fed up,
and tired of yo shit and unleashes that right hand in the latter rounds like he did with tyson.
Im STILL tryin to fiqure out how the fuck tyson got up from that shit....??
he came back from hell and wasnt even phased..
I hate EVERYTHING about how Wilder fights and that in any era except this one he's a Journeyman fighter whose used as a warm-up fight for contenders but I tip my hat to dudes heart.
His energy is that of a person whose not only trying to get out of the hood but not go back.

His awkwardness makes him difficult to fight and he has Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet on his hand power.
He erased Brezeale from existence. Has he been seen since that fight?
I remember when Larry Holmes fought Earnie Shavers, he got knocked out completely and he said hitting the canvas woke him up. He got hit harder than Fury
He has the power of God in that right hand of his but his success is more of a testament to what the heavyweight division AIN'T more than what he IS as a boxer.
Exponentially more.
I watched the Fury fight- that Fury won convincingly but it being
Until last night we had...
-A dude who can't box for shit (Wilder)
-A poor man's Frank Bruno (Joshua)
-And a extra from the movie Snatch (Fury)
So yeah, the fact that any of those cats are relevant speaks volumes about the division.

I gotta check for that fight....never peeped it..
The whole fight is good. Shavers was like a baseball player that only hit home runs. He was trying to knock cats out with the one hitter quitters
Start with the 1:02:40 mark.

Floyd had better defense, movement and most importantly, ring IQ. The chin is up for debate. Floyd’s chin was tested multiple times at 14o and 147 and he held up. I also think Floyd was smarter/ better able to adjust.
Yes, Robison was stronger and bigger. But ring IQ? I’ll give it to Floyd. Now whether “warrior’s instinct” would trump ring IQ, is up for debate.
Mayweather can come back at 50 and still make 100 mil because he has the biggest hater base I’ve ever seen in sports. Folks will pay top of the line dollars with the hopes of seeing him lose.
Joshua will have to run through 3-4 people Tyson style to get some steam back for a big fight with Wilder, but it will never be the same because of the way he got mopped up. The fun is in the pre-fight build up, the debate about who the better boxer is, the fighting styles, undefeated record, etc. That shit is lost now...
However, if Tyson Fury can beat Ruiz and immediately fights Wilder right after, then we would have an incredible show down. That would be the next biggest money fight imo.
Wilder isn't a good boxer by any measure but you're making him out to be like a Michael Grant or something when he's much better than that. Fury would've been a problem for top HWs of any era
And now you got Ernie from "The George Lopez Show" with hands!!
I'm just being funny but Tyson Fury had some legit drug problems a few years back.
Boxers are known for liking the candy..
Not so much now but back in the cough cough sugar ray Leonard cough cough days..
They was sniffing it up..
So I'm not surprised at all to hear that about fury..
Lookin forward to peeping that's rematch..
Hopefully Deontay won't beat his ass too bad where be relapses
If they were close to matching that deal, they would've been screaming from the roof tops about it. No heavy weight fight without a Joshua making that kind of money period.
The sticking point was where was the money coming from (BT Sports). Eddie asked for proof of funds they declined. Eddie asked for a sit down meeting they declined. Later on Finkel said they will not send a full contract until they accepted.
And this is Eddie Hearn and Stephen Espinoza talking about the contract.

I though this was heavy bag work for Joshua. I'm thinking this was more bad Joshua than Good Ruiz .
Thats been Al's strategy from the jump.
