Ruiz over Joshua

I got +330 earlier in the week, but +200 now or thereabouts. Neither will count for any record, just putting this out there for convo purposes.

I personally think Ruiz is just a bad match-up for Joshua. AJ wants to come in hard - he's used to overwhelming folks. He's used to being the harder, stronger, and more athletic guy. Ruiz is made for that type of guy because he's hard to stun. His durability, his chin, his toughness - stereotypical Mexican boxer. He'll take one to give one and wear AJ down and either KO him late or score some big rounds/knockdowns late. Joshua can win this fight - use his jab, reach and footwork. But it's definitely not natural for him.

BTW, I think Fury would give Ruiz fits for much of the same reasons ^^ - he's a great distance fighter and he's 6'9" with an 85" reach. I think Wilder would be very interesting - could Ruiz handle his power? Holy shit.
