    Hearn confirmed that the start time for the Joshua fight will be 9pm UK. I think the PPV will start around 6pm but possibly from 3pm on Facebook or whatever.

    That's a good time. Makes a change from getting up at 4am and then have to trudge through the undercards.

    Ruiz has confirmed to ‘Koogs’ that he was 268lbs for first AJ fight and that he currently weighs 265lbs a month out

    That’s good to hear. I can understand shaving a stone off (which is what I reckon he’ll lose from June 1st) to make him a bit more mobile but anymore than that and he’ll lose some of that durability imo.

    he’s probably lost more fat but gained muscle too. He’s right to be the same size.

    It’ll be interesting to see what Joshua brings to the table. It’s not like he had any trouble hitting the target in his last fight, he was landing some huge shots. I wonder if he’s trying to get a bit more snap in the shots rather than weight?

    Yeah definitely. He looks so light already. I think he’s going to try and put on a boxing masterclass on the back foot and cover a lot of ground - which IMO is a bad move. I think he needs to knock him out.

    I think TeamAJ are going to try and employ the same tactics as for the Parker fight.

    Controversial but I always thought the ref hurt AJ more than Parker in that fight. Parker lacks dog and wouldn’t of wanted AJ putting it on him. Ruiz is a completely different equation though, at some point AJ is going have to fight with him.

    Or a Ruiz pudding (Mexican version with added clen from the fertiliser used on the rice fields).
