We nearly saw it pay off at the end there
Buzzed him at the end of that round. No need for Joshua to plant his feet.
He can’t do much to be fair if Joshua with his superior reach is jabbing him. Joshua doing what Klitchschko was good at.
4-1 AJ
So far so good
Ruiz to go mental in the 10th when he's too far behind on points and knock Joshua out
AJ fighting with his mouth open.
Fighting moving backwards is always more tiring.
Fighting moving backwards is always more tiring.
His jabs look hard
Feels like AJ is taking a page out of the Klitschko boxing book with the constant jabs & patience.
Aj landing some decent jabs but Ruiz doesn't look hurt at all.
Ruiz is never out of this until he’s counted out
5-1 AJ. Ruiz needs to step it up.
Ruiz isn't a great boxer but he's a hard bast'd with a massive punch. Sometimes that's all you need.
Ruiz needs a Tyson like style, get in close, and uppercut him, behind a good guard and weaving upper body.
Most disciplined performance I have seen Joshua done since the Olympics.
Ruiz is getting frustrated, he wants Joshua to bang with him..

That was a sweet left hook from AJ.
Ruiz is tiring you can see it in his face
6-1 AJ. He just isn't engaging with Ruiz. Boxing masterclass from him so far.
Ruiz doesn't look as fast as the first fight.
AJ weight loss really has done him well, he's still sticking and moving very well.
Very professional from Joshua so far. Like watching a Klitchko fight against a smaller guy.
AJ doing exactly what he should have done in the first fight! Don’t engage with him close up and you take away his chances of winning!
The discipline is excellent.
Whenever AJ gets confident he gets caught. He doesn't need to follow up if he lands.
Different class
Better from Ruiz. He needs to go all out now.
Much better from Ruiz. Shook AJ there.
6-2
6-2
Ruiz landed that one
Ruiz round there. He looked dangerous.
Ruiz only got one more round in him. Now or never
Ruiz could go all night.
Late flurry from Ruiz but AJ wins the round for me. 7-2
8-2 AJ. He taunts Ruiz towards the end of the round.
Ah wtf I was told this would start at 10pm
Ruiz didn't do anything that round. AJ's movement too much for him.
Ruiz's got to take risks and just for it, be willing to get KO'd to KO Joshua, because he's already lost otherwise.
Well it hasn't really started yet.
Guys, I'm at work so not watching. Should I cash my ruiz bet out?
My method of watching just died 
Ruiz has lost unless AJ gets complacent.
