    I favour Joshua slightly in the rematch. That being said the Ruiz lucky punch narrative is rubbish. When there are 5 knockdowns in a fight and 4 of them happen to one fighter I think you'd classify that as being the lucky punch. It also was a pretty unlikely sequence of events when Ruiz went down, a snapping uppercut that put him into the path of a powerful hook in his blind spot.

    Joshua just needs to stay out of range for 12 rounds and he'll coast. Remember one judge still had him up at the time of the KO.

    You still look at these two and wonder how the f**k Ruiz beat him. Ruiz barely looks 6ft and is 100% lard. Never judge a book by it's cover.

    If Hearn picks the Referee in Saudi Arabia every time Ruiz starts tagging Joshua the Referee will break up the action and deduct a point from Ruiz for punching AJ in the face! The audience won't complain... you'll be able to hear crickets chirping in that Saudi Crowd...

    Ruiz is wearing a Fat Suit at the Press Conferences... it's why he's Smirking so much!!

    They put out bogus rumors that Ruiz is just laying around gobbling down boxes of Krispy Kreme Donuts but in reality he's training real hard!!

    Joshua should have trained with Wlad the egg Klitschko or Lennox Lewis to learn how to jab and tie up on the inside. Instead Joshua was talking **** about Lennox Lewis. Joshua just does not know how to box and use his size. Ruiz can take Joshua's best punches but Joshua cannot take Ruiz's punches. Joshua's on chance is to win on the cards. Ruiz has to KO Joshua to win. No way in hell they will give him the win on the cards. Joshua and his team has rigged this fight any way they can. At some point Joshua is going to get hit in this fight and he will fold. Ruiz beat Joshua with damn ease in NY. I think Ruiz was shocked by how bad Joshua's chin is. Being Joshua cannot KO Ruiz I just do not see how he wins. Unless he cheats. Joshua is the next David Price. Remember how Price's rematch turned out. Once a fighter has been exposed it is hard to get back to the top. Joshua was a hype job all along. Wilder is also a hype Job and I think Ruiz will KO him as well.
