    Like, so many.
    Just FYI, Joe Rogan and Firas Zahabi spent the first bit of his most recent podcast talking about Wilder.

    Very cool, I'll have to listen/watch that. I watch a lot of Rogan clips, but very few full podcasts. Zahabi is one I would listen to for hours.

    Zahabi is just so smart. I've got a little deeper in the podcast and they've also talked about Ruiz/Joshua, Francis Ngannou potentially doing boxing, and how Zahabi structured sparring for GSP.

    I just watched this interview with Joshua. I know he's a low key guy, which can be deceptive. You can bee low key and a badass. I just hope he has the fire, because it's gonna be tough.

    im sponsoring eric molina on the card. super excited!

    I think ruiz takes it personally. I dont see how in 5months AJ improves enough to outbox dad bod.

    if his game plan is to jab all night and keep him at distance good luck because your cardio fails round 6 /7 and ruiz gets inside eventually...

    It wasnt really an outbox, he got hit and didnt recover. He had him all the first rounds until after the hit. I think AJ will not settle for jabs, he will go for KO. Not discrediting AR. It only takes one punch and you are out...

    so youre saying he continues with the same game plan?
    Ruiz can handle his power, and hes much quicker than AJ.

    If aj goes for a KO then I dont see how we get a different result personally.

    I anticipate it will be different, getting KO again doesnt mean it will be the same outcome. If you remember last time, AJ didnt really push on AR after he KO'd him, yes AR got up swinging but AJ didnt capitalize on it and he got caught with a really good hit by AR. What did AR do, he capitalized on it and didnt let him breathe..

    Lol! I want AR to continue regardless of him winning or loosing, I'd like to see him fight wilder and fury. I think he would get those fights if he beats AJ.

    the most interesting timeline is definitely ruiz winning.

    100% fury fights him next if he wins

    that straight right down the pipe puts out like 95% of fighters.

    fortunately for ruiz, aj punched the wrong chin.

    I'll give the edge to AR for this 2nd fight. His hands are quicker and he proved that he can be knocked down and still maintain composure afterwards. I see this fight going 5 rounds tops. I think the thirst for a K.O. is big between AJ and AR.

    I hope AR takes the fight seriously as well. If he pulls off a win or gives the crowd an awesome fight, his name will remain relevant in the world of boxing. If he slacks off and simply does it for a quick pay day, he will not have a legacy. He has yet to prove himself and by the sound of the article, he is showing signs of someone who is financially irresponsible. Reminds me of those lottery winners who hit it big, only to lose it all and end up miserable.

    I'm hoping this fight turns out amazing. I love watching how the heavyweight division is returning back to the glory days of heavyweight boxing.
