57-56, Ruiz
57-56, Ruiz

57-56, Joshua

So, these are the offical scores of three judges.

This just goes to show the judging is a problem in boxing. If the fight was close going into the later rounds, you'd see some funny business.

Yes ! I opened this topic because of that.

Maybe, but after 7 their cards were going to read -

67-63
67-63
66–64

Minimum, with 5 to go.

[Ruthless-RKO]

58-55 to Ruiz.

To be fair. Had Joshua seen that round through, that’s a 10-7 round.

Ruiz would have had a more comfortable lead.

However any close rounds, I would think were gonna go on AJ’s favour.

[dagilechia]

Round 1: Ruiz 9-10 Joshua
Round 2: Ruiz 9-10 Joshua
Round 3: Ruiz 10-8 Joshua
Round 4: Ruiz 10-9 Joshua
Round 5: Ruiz 9-10 Joshua
Round 6: Ruiz 10-9 Joshua

My score: Ruiz 57-56 Joshua

You just noticed? New York is the second worse, albeit a distant second, to Mafia Vegas. The judges were going to give the fight to Joshua if it went the distance.

57-56 ruiz is a totally fine score, some ppl cry corruption at anything

[diddy]

When AJ got knocked down the second time in the seventh round the fight was basically over. He needed a ko right then and there when he Quite clearly didn’t have the legs left to do so. Even had he been able to continue he was going to lose the decision. Ruiz just needed to win one more round.

shutout

That's about right.

59-54 Ruiz

[Perseus]

58-55 fat guy.
Official judges scorecards were fine.
I was watching on tv not sitting ringside looking up through the ropes like the judges do.

[Ricky]

That's about right.

I just rewatched it. No way AJ won a round, it was a schooling start to finish. I never realised how much AJ was on his bike the first time. He was full on running in round 6 and Ruiz took him apart in the final minute of that round.

58 RUIZ---55 AJ
