JOSHUA VS RUIZ: THE DUEL OF SURPRISES
One of the most beautiful things about sports is the sensation it can provide in an instant. That's exactly what the heavyweight world title fight between Anthony Joshua and Andy Ruiz turned into in the summer of 2019.
In one corner of the ring in "Madison Square Garden" then stood the reigning champion in three of the boxing versions, Anthony Joshua. His opponent at first sight was perceived as another victory in the brilliant statistics of the British or in other words outsider. Andy Ruiz did the unthinkable. 4 knockouts for the Mexican boxer and a TKO victory secured him a triumph over Joshua topped with his three world titles.
On the one hand, the world sank into sorrow. The universal favorite in the ring, who impressed with the demeanor and athleticism inherent in a true hero, was left without everything he had fought for. On the other hand, boxing is a sport where individual class is everything, and fans want to watch fights where it is key. In other words, the better in the ring walks away with the victory, even if it is the hitherto unknown Ruiz.
The duel between the two proved to be the proof that not only physical training and experience can ensure victory. Andy Ruiz has become the man who proved that when you really want something, there are no obstacles in front of you. Well, and of course, when your tactics are better than your opponent's.
