Joshua vs Ruiz 2 Isn't even a tough fight to call

[NoConcoms]

And I don't think either showed clearly better ring generalship

This is where I stop arguing. You are clearly mentally defective.

Now that I've explained how Andy won that round, please explain to me how AJ won that round with a couple of ineffective jabs upstairs and one to the body, all the while getting backed up all round?

Simple. He landed more punches than Ruiz. You know, the usual way that you win a round.

No, no, no, little boy. That is not AT ALL how rounds are SUPPOSED to be scored. Now who's the casual. Checkmate son. You just exposed yourself.

I'm all for debate, but you just made that up so that you could mock it.

Point me to the posts that say he was boxing beautifully in the first two rounds.

I'm not going to comb the internet for something you can easily see for yourself. It's all over this board, youtube, and social media.

It's very simple u nuthugger; Andy won that round with clean effective punching and CLEARLY superior ring generalship. Which last time I checked, was criteria for scoring a round.

Face it; Your boy got KTFO, and is going to lose again u limy imbecile.

what is ring generalship though? i've seen people define it a million different ways. clean punching should be an easy category to judge although some people still fu-kk that up but ring generalship just sounds like something vague people use to say their guy deserved to win. i've seen some people claim a guy was winning that category even though the other guy was landing the cleaner punches so it doesnt really make a whole lot of sense how that can be possible. he fought the fight he wanted...yet the other guy still landed better so how is the guy landing the better punches not fighting hte fight he wanted? just a dumb category overall no offense to you.

AJ just had his first loss, and before he had time to recover mentally, hearn's dumb ass put him right back in with the guy who sonned him lol

He had to. They built Joshua up as bigger than the sport of boxing itself. Joshua can't go back to fighting Eric Molina while he hones his skills. Ideally you'd want your fighter to have a tune up or two before you put him back in there with a guy who outclass him. But Joshua is big business, he's not just a boxer. That's why they're cashing out on this fight.

I'm going to give you a little tip to help you score fights in future. Ring Generalship is a bit more than being in the middle of the ring. If you stand in the middle of the ring while the guy in front of you is landing jabs on you, then you don't get any special scoring advantage for that.

And as for your "clean and effective" punches... that means more than liking anything thrown by the guy you want to win. I'm not sure you could rate a single shot from Ruiz as clean and effective in that round.

You claimed you had Ruiz winning that round by "a mile". That's just ridiculous.

One day we'll have to have a talk about how Hearn ruined AJ's career and moved him way to fast because he saw dollar signs.

AJ himself said he's been complaining because he wasn't getting fights that would improve his skillset. He knew this day was coming. Takam & Parker were warning signs everybody ignored.

IMO it is a tough to call. Ruiz made a mistake with losing his weight too much.

[Claude Palle]

So how many thousands are you putting on Ruiz?

It's easy money right?

Betting on boxing is risky regardless of one's confidence. Last night's fight between Valdez and Lopez is a prime example. One judge had Valdez clearly winning when if fact he was obviously losing by most accounts.
