KillerKhan420 06/03/19 1:40:36 PM #31:	Stephen A has no boxing knowledge in his head at all. Andy Ruiz obviously showed that AJ wasn't focused on him and more or less just looking for that huge payday against Wilder or fury. I say, if there's a rematch AJ will do his best wladimir impression and win that way in England. That's some shit though, first fight out of England and he loses in spectacular fashion. He knocked down Ruiz in the 3rd and tried going for the kill but didn't realize that knockdown didn't hurt Ruiz as bad as he thought and he paid for it. Now his bargaining power with Wilder isn't as strong as it once was. Let's see if he can bounce back. He needs to lose that bulk he has on, he's way, WAY too muscular for his frame that it looks like he has chest implants fr. That's also a reason he gassed out and he fought the wrong fight, there's no reason for him to be infighting the smaller man when that's what Ruiz wanted being shorter and having less reach. Butterbean? Lol he was a tough man champion and was never a real threat to boxers in the 90s. He had a fight with a 50 something year old Larry Holmes and despite knocking him down, got outboxed handily by the old man. He never fought Tyson, bowe, holyfield or Lewis and you wanna know why? He would of got his ass blasted out of the ring by those guys. Even old Foreman would of destroyed him. --- "I know how the business works because I'm a wrestling fan"-hulkhogan1 <cite>KillerKhan420 posted [p:922734894] in ESPN analy...

[t:77759171]...</cite> <quote><cite>KillerKhan420 posted...</cite> <quote>Stephen A has no boxing knowledge in his head at all. Andy Ruiz obviously showed that AJ wasn't focused on him and more or less just looking for that huge payday against Wilder or fury. I say, if there's a rematch AJ will do his best wladimir impression and win that way in England. That's some shit though, first fight out of England and he loses in spectacular fashion. He knocked down Ruiz in the 3rd and tried going for the kill but didn't realize that knockdown didn't hurt Ruiz as bad as he thought and he paid for it. Now his bargaining power with Wilder isn't as strong as it once was. Let's see if he can bounce back. He needs to lose that bulk he has on, he's way, WAY too muscular for his frame that it looks like he has chest implants fr. That's also a reason he gassed out and he fought the wrong fight, there's no reason for him to be infighting the smaller man when that's what Ruiz wanted being shorter and having less reach. Butterbean? Lol he was a tough man champion and was never a real threat to boxers in the 90s.
