    Joshua will be under tremendous pressure in a rematch because second fight will be held in UK. I think history of the first fight will repeat itself and Ruiz Jr will pick him apart once again. Joshua obsorbed serious damage and he didn't respond well after last knockdown. I guess Joshua reached his limit as a champion and can no longer be the dominant champion he once was.

    Demerizen/Ajagba is good pick em fight. Ajagba have power but Demrizen have it too. Demerizen have good chin. Have fought Medzhidov, Hrgovic, Joyce and others wasn't knocked down. Demerizen is overlooked because of his weight but he is lighter than Ruiz Jr and judging by his amateur career and skillset is better than Ruiz Jr. Ajagba can be easily caught if you get close to him, so I don't see why he can't do some serious damage to Ajagba. People concentrate on fighter's phisique not skill and because of that fighter with lesser phisique get overlooked.

    Hey houmzz, any idea what Rostislav Pletchko is up to? I vaguely remember reading he was in the US and was possibly dropping to CW, but haven't seen much about him for ages.

    Kudryashov/Makabu is one of those rare fights where a double KO wouldn't shock me in the slightest. :lol:

    Perhaps Kudryashov vs Makabu will be for the vacant belt.

    Wouldn't mind that. Pure testosterone CTE inducing fight between two glass cannon contenders and neither would duck anyone after winning.
