Anthony Joshua should be at least a 10 to 1 favorite for a rematch.


I think Ruiz is a better fighter then most give him credit.

He has a solid amatuer record under a pretty damn good coach. Over a hundred ametuer fights for just a few losses.
His professional record is very good with only 1 loss from 30+ bouts. With this said the record is good but the quality of his opponent's not anything special.

He's tough and he hits hard.

I didn't think he'd win either but I gave him more then just a punchers chance.
He’s absolutely a better fighter than people are saying. People clown because he doesn’t “look the part”.

He’s incredibly accurate and has very fast handspeed for a big guy. Relentless, good counter puncher, experienced. It was pissing me off listening to the pre fight interviews and hearing people talk like he’s some bum off the streets.

He’s not just going to get in there and be out boxed, without bringing a shit storm to whoever is in front of him.

I think he’s a problem for Joshua in a rematch unless he gets stopped early. Same with Wilder. Fury has the best shot to soundly out box him.
