    My interest level is low

    If Joshua gets by fury, whose really left? I would be ok with ruiz 3 as a stay busy between his next big fight

    Ideally ruiz would beat someone in the top 10 to earn it. If he beat wilder, whyte, chisora, usyk, povetkin, hunter, or martin I'd be interested

    As for the fight itself? Maybe a slightly more competitive version of the second fight if ruiz is in shape. An 8-4 type decision with a scary moment for Joshua. If ruiz is in the same shape as fight 2 he is dominated

    Trainer starves Ruiz for 3 days, and then gets a hypnotist to convince Ruiz that AJ is actually a giant chorizo. Ruiz by cannibalism in round 3.

    joshua wide decision. I believe ruiz lost all motivation after his upset win , wouldnt surprise me if he loses in his comeback. he is following buster douglas steps.

    Ruiz does not deserve a third shot.
    Not until he gets in shape and beats some people.
    I don't think he'll do that.

    Ruiz Jr will never turn up in the ring in half decent shape again.

    He couldn’t even turn up in shape for the rematch when all the belts were on the line. When he got the £8 million gross pay day he had made it in his mind and would never turn up again properly.

    A rematch would either be another AJ UD or a late KO for AJ. I think Ruiz Jr is deteriorating all the time as he has lost his hunger for boxing.

    Fat boy missed his chance at greatness and he will always be short and chubby.. AJ would employ the same jab and grab tactic.. Fury would lean on him and exhaust him to a UD.. And honestly Wilder if he get his head together would spark him out similar to Breazeale..

    Look I like Ruiz but a rubber match wasn't in the contract lol He lost 11 or at best 10 rounds to AJ in the rematch it wasn't competitive. Ruiz absolutely needs to earn the rematch by beating some other notable guys in the top 10.in the publics' eye Ruiz really tarnished his image with his performance in the rematch and blaming it on coming in out of shape.

    Round 8 always showed me that Ruiz if he came in shape could have won the rematch he got Aj's timing down successfully cutoff the ring and rocked him multiple times but since Ruiz came in so out of shape he gassed and AJ recovered and swept the last couple rounds and was never really in danger again for the rest of the fight

    Joshua by late stoppage. Ruiz has done nothing to prove he belongs at a high level in the division. He’s just gonna be one of those guys that’s gonna blow through his money and attempt to make a comeback that will likely fail.

    The first fight probably was a fluke. Joshua won't engage with him again, so I would expect a boring points win, with closer rounds.

    Ruiz should only EVER get another shot if he proves himself and climbs the ranks.

    If not, then he'll just be looking for another payday to retire and get even fatter.
