After being dropped with big left hook he was met with Josh best right cross he had to endure that before he threw back so chin was the biggest difference

Interesting point. I remember watching the fight and wondering what was going on. Ruiz was doing so well after being hurt, it seemed like a good strategy for Joshua would have been not to hurt him! I thought at the time that it was about Joshua losing concentration after hurting Ruiz and trying to finish him off, but this explanation gives a new angle to the situation.

It’s an excellent explanation and why I like Kellerman. He is a very wise boxing analyst.

if Joshua beats Ruiz in the rematch, maybe we will get the Wilder-Joshua fight sooner?

So both Joshua and Wilder(Yes he did) has a loss.

Imo, Well said by Kellerman.....all kinda shots were flying from all angles by Ruiz, even "2nd nature" sneaky "hooks" thrown from his waist, while Joshua was giving up his height leaning forward, throwing robotic textbook shots that Ruiz had seen a million times already. The Aerobic Snicker -vs- the Anaerobic Free Weight....Fluidity -vs- Stiff.....Water -vs- Ice......Joshuas gotta give him a whole new erect target to try and land on; tire the chubby kid through constant "reaching" with well placed counters....Funny thing though, Ruiz seems to have very good stamina! This rematch will be interesting, to say the least
