Arreola was unable to press home his advantage after an early knockdown.
Chris Arreola admitted that his caution had cost him against Andy Ruiz Jr. at the weekend, but claimed he did so to avoid a knockout defeat.
Ruiz had slimmed down noticeably since that bout, and there was some suggestion from promoter Eddie Hearn that his weight loss might have left him vulnerable. Arreola dropped his opponent but was not able to press home the advantage.
Arreola said that decision was in order to avoid being put down himself, referencing the powerful display Ruiz showed in his first fight and win over Joshua.
