As a boxer I analysed the fight between Ruiz Jr and Antony Joshua. It was a mismatched in boxing style and no way Joshua could have won.
Joshua was taller than Ruiz . Ruiz neutralised him since he couldnt use his height advantage. The strategy that Ruiz used to win was to fight from inside. Joshua had a difficult since he could not throw his long jabs.
Whenever Joshua tried to move outside to outbox Ruiz. Ruiz stepped inside and cut off the ring. He stood toe to toe and throw furries of punches this was evident after the knockdown in the third round. He surprised the crowd with a comeback in that round and AJ suffered two knockdown.
This fight was similar to that between Mohammed Ali Vs Joe Frazier first fight. Where Frazier won the heavy weight fight.
The fight could have been a blockbuster if it was between wilder and AJ.
Ruiz Jr will lose against Tyson Fury. Not because Fury is good but because of the style he boxes. Fury is a slugger. Slugger have advantage over infighters. Joe Frazier lost against George Foreman.
Haujui vyenye sisi ma-boy wa ma-one pack tunasheherekea hio win.
AJ gassed. The end.
I noticed that even though I know nothing about boxing.
That fight Ruiz alikuwa na yeye hapa kwa hapa. If he was to win the fight angeamua kumgonja bila kuhepa aki ingia anampiga mawantuuu
If I get you correctly, why wouldn’t AJ just keep a ‘safe distance’ from Ruiz so that he could have the space to strike his blows?
So AJ should have been given an openent with an inferior boxing style to plough…
AJ had the upper hand in terms of age, height advantage as well as reach but was basically outboxed by a resilient opponent…
As long as there in the same weight category everything goes…
IRON SHARPENS IRON!
Ruiz could not have allowed him he knew AJ has long reach punches. As an infighter you have to stay close. AJ could have won if he could have been throwing short punches. Uppercut na short hooks. Kwanza round 3 it was more faya. Hapo videvu zilitembea.
I would refer you watch smokin Joe Vs Mohammed Ali. That fight Ali alikuwa on top of the top but ile punishment alipea he saved by the bell.
Mmhhhh…your arguement doesn’t hold water because both Mohamed and Foreman fought people shorter than themselves and won. You also can’t fault a fighting style. Mexicans boxing style is done at close quarters. AJ didn’t train for this fight and his cockiness got the best of him. He was a lazy heavyweight.
Carlos Takam fought the same way and was troubling A.J. The referee kept pulling them apart to protect A.J, he is all hype and too muscular
Mike tyson is the master of infighting, the moment the bell rings he was under the opponents chin
Nope Ali struggled against Frazier. The fight between Frazier and foreman did not last. Foreman KOd Frazier this is where Ali regained his title in rumble in the jungle.
Ali appeared to struggle in most of his fights to tire his opponents but yes fighting a shorter person is rough
All is fair, they are in the same weight category…
IRON SHARPENS IRON
My favorite is wilder.
Knockouts kila tym
