    Joe Rogan "Wilder, who is probably the greatest knock out artist in the history of the division", hilarious stuff, he should add that on his comedy act.

    Let’s wait and see and then when it’s announced in the UK everyone can come back and offer their opinions

    Exactly!! Ruiz says it's not gonna be in the UK!! So what, did he say what it says about who decides where the rematch will be in that contract that he already signed??!! He's just making noise!!

    I dont think eddy believed Aj would actually lose so he never really made a detailed rematch clause just tossed one in there

    If he fights smarter he should overcome Ruiz this time

    Ruiz and his team should have some say in the venue, he's the unified champion now and there should be some wiggle room allowed on his end.

    If Joshua were to fight in cardiff it's just going to reinforce the idea that he's a UK fighter that can't fight anywhere outside of that country and be successful. I heard rumblings that it would be in the west coast (Vegas or L.A.,) but who knows at this point.

    Wilder fought in the UK, Ruiz went to NZ to fight Parker, if Joshua really wants to go down as one of the greats, he's going to have to fight more often in the states. All the great British fighters have done it in the past. the great lennox Lewis was fighting there on a fairly regular basis.

    I would go back to the scene of the loss if Joshua really wants to build his brand. It's not like Ruiz is some ATG; Joshua was doing well in that fight until he started getting careless after dropping Andy.

    I'd imagine if the fight does take place in Cardiff that Ruiz will be getting paid handsomely. Still after what's been transpiring with these doping issues with Whyte and seeing how often the refs are bias towards the hometown UK fighters (and I don't say this as some bias American, I normally DGAF where a fighter is from,) they should probably find a more neutral locale for the rematch.
