Andy Ruiz Jr. Shocks the World with Huge TKO Over Anthony Joshua

In a matchup that many boxing experts expected to be a virtual waste of everybody's time, Andy Ruiz Jr. threw mud at them all.

Ruiz sent shockwaves throughout the boxing world on Saturday night by knocking previously-unbeaten heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua four times before finally stopping him in the seventh. A massive betting underdog coming in and a much smaller fighter physically, Ruiz never doubted his abilities and wound up becoming the first ever Mexican heavyweight champion in boxing, and he did it in the most historic venue the sport has ever seen; Madison Square Garden in New York City.
