Of course we can't be sure, however, the fight was not really that close, Andy Ruiz beat the shit out of him to be honest, I don't see why it's going to be any different in a few weeks/months.
I agree mate! If Ruiz was able to beat Joshua once then there is a high chance for him to do it twice. I'm an AJ fan to be honest but after I watched how Ruiz humbly knocked out Joshua my perspectives on boxing change. That made me realized that the fate of a certain match doesn't depend on the belts you hold, on the fame and most importantly doesn't depend on the physique (as long as you're in th same weight class of course lol
). At the end of the day, your victory was dictated by your hardwork and hunger to win; and that's what I saw from Ruiz. Joshua lost probably because of overconfidence, actually I remembered one of their press con where Joshua gave his two belts to Ruiz and have a picture of it. For me that's insulting but thank God Ruiz wasn't offended at all, that's a sneaky way to underestimate your opponent tho.
Let's admit it, Joshua is overrated while Ruiz is just underrated.
Ruiz was insanely overlooked, it was clear that that Ruiz was a real contender. Joshua thought it was going to be a walk in the park because the guy took the fight on short notice.
I just hope he doesn't ruin the spot he is at by becoming too bitchy about fighting Saudi Arabia. Why is he complaining? When fighters become world-widely known sometimes they do these things. He wants the rematch back in US, I get that, but why not beat him where they want to fight? The humiliation would be brutal. But rumors say that Ruiz is spending too much time in Roll Royces and partying, he has not hit the gym yet since the fight. If Andy becomes another victim of fame and money he is going to get destroyed by the rematch. I don't doubt for a second Joshua is extremely motivated to redeem himself and prove his claims that he got lucky.
After hearing the rumors (and the source is very good) im betting my money on Joshua winning unless Andy is seen hitting the gym every day until the rematch, maybe he just took a vacation. It would just be sad to see him becoming another one hit wonder.
