Hold up... this was a PPV?

Was Arreola/Ruiz the main event?

Same here. If I'd come in late and started watching from round 4, I could claim the fight went exactly as I predicted however I never saw that coming (rounds one through three). What happened to Andy's punch resistance? I rated it first class but not on this showing. I don't believe Tough titty's power is comparable with Joshua's, maybe it was weight-loss related.

Either way I predicted a missmatch and a poor spectacle. It seems I was wrrrr. It seems I was wrrrr. It seems I was wro- It seems I was a lot less correct than I expected to be.

Arreola hits hard, so that's not surprising, that he was able to hurt widely opened Andy. It was surprising, that Ruiz allowed himself to be that flawed tonight.

I actually enjoyed it.

Did you watch it without knowing the result first? I've done that before, but didn't do that this time.

It's always preferable not to know the result.

It was quite boring since the 4th.

I enjoyed it. Not a classic but far from a boring fight.

Arreola went quite lethargic, I don't know, what was that exciting in the occasional target practice of Ruiz.

Didn't see the same fight obviously. I didn't say exciting. I said far from boring. It was a decent watch.

Arreola averaged 40-45 punches per round. That's a lot of punches thrown for a lethargic fighter.

Somehow it didn't make the rest of the fight competetive.
