Watching the fight now...
First thing I noticed was that Ruiz's footwork and movement was quite a ways better than Joshua's. Joshua plodded while Ruiz moved very smoothly for his size. Also, now I understand what everyone was saying about his hand speed and accuracy: his shots were coming out as fast as a middleweight's, as opposed to a heavyweight's. He seemed to be giving three shots for every one of Joshua's he took. Combine that with Joshua's lax defense and you have a problem on your hands (no pun intended).
I've only gotten past round 3, but either the ref or Joshua's corner absolutely should've stopped it after the round was over. Dude was stumbling around like a drunk when he was walking back to the corner, and he wasn't looking much better after the first knockdown either.
What a disaster.
Edit: Finished it. Really pathetic, gutless performance from Joshua here. Particularly in comparison to Ruiz, who always seemed to get stronger and return with a flurry whenever he got hit by one of Joshua's big shots (maybe because Joshua tends to get especially lax when he catches someone with a good, clean punch). Make no mistake about it, Ruiz earned this win with his punching, movement, footwork, and general tenacity, but this was one of the most pitiful performances from a hyped fighter I can remember. Maybe Hamed/Barrera bad, maybe even Lewis/McCall I bad.

Nah I mean all time. Both of em the only nations that had champs in every division
That's the thing, I'm not a cocksucker like you so I'm not mad at all, I don't dikkride no fighter or no man period. I'm not with the stanning like you so I can be honest and critical about ALL fighters, give credit where it's due to any fighter and criticize them when it's due too. Andy Ruiz Jr deserved to win that fight and AJ deserved to lose, AJ's performance largely was awful, the potential reasons for that is another topic, but he was very poor and a shell of himself in that fight. That's why WIlder shouldn't have ducked AJ , he should have stepped up and took the money and the fight, because if AJ boxed like that Wilder would have knocked him out, probably within 3 rounds and he would have made 120 mil for such a short amount of work and also be the undisputed champion and king of the division and it would have catapulted him into superstardom. Wilder fukked up, HE should have been the 1 to do that to AJ not Andy Ruiz Jr, he's just lost (for now) potentially his biggest ever purse, maybe the biggest purse he will ever receive in his career and he could have been undisputed and had all the power in the division. That's 1 of the issues I've had with Wilder, he doesn't step up, he cherry picks, if he stepped up and won he would have everything RIGHT NOW, he'd be 120 mil richer and he'd be undisputed. AJ now has to win the rematch, if he does then he's back, if he loses his star diminishes significantly. If he wins the fight can still happen 1 day though some of the shine may be taken off it because now he doesn't have the 0 on his record. In truth now Wilder has lost against Fury and AJ has lost, and Fury probably even has because I didn't see the fight but there's a fight he had in the past where everybody thought he lost comfortably. So what this says is nobody is invincible in the heavyweight division normally, a lot of them can beat eachother cause they are hard punchers and skilled fighters. So it so what it is, AJ deserved to lose the fight and he was outboxed, he was timid, but I DO respect him for always being willing to step up win, lose or draw, that's what a sportsman and athlete should be about, what's the point if you don't keep testing yourself? Cherry picking opponents and winning is some fake/false shyt. All the greats, Lewis, Mike Tyson, Ali, Foreman, Fraiser all had losses, it's how you come back that defines you. AJ took his L and he deserved to lose, now it's gonna be whether he comes back and avenges it like Ali did with all of his (until he was old and health got too bad right at the end) or not. Now this Ruiz vs AJ fight becomes much bigger the rematch and it turns into a huge fight that will do big numbers now. It's make or break for him now. It should be an interesting journey and time in the heavyweight division, this comes for most fighters, happened to Wlad a couple of times too getting beat, it's just the way sport goes. 1 of Tyson or Wilder will be losing soon too when they fight, what's most likely is that all the heavyweights will lose at some point, the days of Rocky Mariano in this era as a heavyweight are probably gone. I just want to see great events and great fights, it was enjoyable night of boxing and that's what I'm happy about. I hope they do AJ vs Ruiz later in the year, plus the Katie Taylor rematch on the same card, I'll be following the journey. So try stop cocksucking, there's no need for it, it just makes you seem childish and immature, it's ok to be a fan of somebody but when it turns into some dikkriding shyt it goes too far, there's never a need for that, can just be objective about the sport.

This dude RayRod just too good with him

if you are the smaller guy, and you take your glove and push the big guys head up, not punch, but just push his head up, you can stand him straight up like a stick, make his body into a big target, and rip him underneath.
that, for me, is real head control.

LOL these clowns keep trying to spin into A Wilder loss. No, it's just a Joshua loss.
