I saw it very differently. I thought Ruiz footwork was causing AJ problems including lowering his guard. I felt Ruiz controlled the fight well.
They had the same time to prepare for each other so that’s a mute point.
I do think motivation could have been an issue, whatever the result AJ wasn’t coming out of it well.
I’m still not convinced AJ will win a rematch

Joshua was flat footed, sluggish and to a point disinterested. Ruiz seemed to walk right through his jab. He also had only one month to prepare for Ruiz whereas Ruiz basically extended his training camp.
Hearn and AJ bet on the wrong fight this time. You can’t take anything away from
Ruiz, he fought him on the inside fair and square. Will he be able to repeat at Wembley? I have my doubts.
