Referees protect Joshua in UK or Wales. If Joshua claims that he deserves the belts again, he should fight Ruiz in neutral grounds. In US, proper VADA testing should be conducted for both boxers. I don't want to see fake champs like Joshua or Wilder or Fury who are protected by referees, promoters, organisations etc. They don't want to see their cash cows wasted. I want the real boxers, real warriors to get the belts. Ruiz is one of them. Great boxer, great chin, great technique, combinations, stamina.
I think it should be in the UK... it would be hilarious to watch Joshua get sparked out in front of his home crowd!!! hahaha... then we can close the book on AJ
It's kind of a moot point. For the most part, this is not a fight that the camps need to negotiate, it is a fight that was already negotiated between the two camps before the first match. Ruiz is going to have to go where Joshua wants to fight. Unless he would like to find himself in a legal battle with Eddie Hearn, possibly losing his belts, and definitely losing millions of dollars. I don't think that scenario is good for Joshua, Ruiz, or boxing in general for that matter.
His Sky interview was gold. "I'd go to Mexico with his uncle as ref and whoop him buuuuutttt Cardiff". Funny how he still talks down Ruiz after taking such a beating.
