AJ impressed with his boxing skills tonight. Showed a different dimension to banging people out.

Shite to watch though, I want knockouts! Fair play to AJ tbh, gameplan and tactics spot on

Now get in with Fury or Wilder

Ruiz saying in the post-fight interview he gained too much weight between fights.

He showed you can't judge a book by its cover in the last fight but he was clearly carrying to much weight to effectively walk down AJ. Fair play to him though, he's made a name for himself and will certainly have a few more paydays on the back of the first fight.

This is the most interesting heavyweight division in a long time, you've got the big three and there's also Usyk stepping up from cruiserweight. Daniel Dubois could be another one to step up next year, only 22, huge potential and 12/13 wins so far by KO.

The commentators on my feed were criticising Ruiz for not preparing properly. Apparently his trainer wanted him in camp in July. He waddled up in October. Warnock

I think the new found fame went to his head a bit. He's still a real threat in that division though. He's hard as fuck and has amazing hand speed for a fat lad.

I just hope politics and greed dont stop the mega fights being made. Could be an unreal couple of years in the division.

Quite enjoyed that actually. Would've been nice to see a knockout but I'm sure they said Ruiz had only ever been down against Joshua so he can obviously take a punch.

Looks like a fight for all four belts is still miles off. Joshua needs to fight Usyk and Pulev next or be stripped of two of his belts Fat Cunt What a racket boxing is.

Amazing performance by AJ. You want a KO in a heavyweight title fight but his discipline and range was seriously impressive. Ruiz coming in in that state was a bit of a joke tbh.

He apologised to his trainer after for partying for 3 months Zlat

I don't think he deserves the third fight tbh. So unprofessional.

Honestly can't wait for this Fury v Wilder fight VanGaals Bitch

Be interesting to see how Fury approaches this. New trainer who has him heavier and they are claiming to be going for the KO but can't see it. Also rumours of knock outs in his camp.

Such a hard one to predict.

Fury weighed in 40lbs heavier than Wilder. Maybe is going for that KO.

Wilder looked in phenomenal shape though.

Would love to see Fury win this. He's on a different level from Wider skill wise.

If he gets properly caught on the chin though.

Another thing he's got to overcome is win convincingly enough if it goes to points not to give the judges the option to cheat. Even then ...

One thing in his favour is he is in such better shape than the first fight. Last time he dropped 10 stone and was coming back from rock bottom. He's bee active and is in his best shape now.

Edging towards Fury at the moment but who knows. What a fight.

There's no way Fury's losing this. Convincing points win, again.

Wasn't expecting Fury to be that heavy and Wilder looking pretty big too. Could be a ko in this somewhere.

Teddy Atlas thinks Fury is struggling mentally

Eddie Hearn was talking about something not being right in his camp.

We shall see.

All the wee things coming out seems to suggest Fury's preparation isn't going very well.

What time will the fight start roughly?
