Anthony Joshua Set to Fight for Career Against Ruiz in Rematch 

The rematch between Anthony Joshua and Andy Ruiz looks to be all systems with go, with promoter Eddie Hearn confirming that the bout will either take place in New York in November or Cardiff in December. Naturally, Joshua’s camp are leaning towards the rematch taking place in South Wales as the 29-year-old has a faultless record at the Principality Stadium. This, however, won’t be like any other fight that Joshua has had in Cardiff given that when he squared up against Carlos Takam and Joseph Parker, the Watford-born fighter still had an air of invincibility about him. Two flush punches from Andy Ruiz to the side of Joshua’s head smashed that illusion and now the Englishman is very much in a fight for his career when the two meet again. You can see Joshua being the one man to Read more [...]

However, after their draw, it seemed as though those two fighters were going to rematch. It was made clear then that the Wembley date wasn’t going to happen, and the expected Joshua v Wilder superfight remains firmly ‘on ice’, even though it is still a popular topic Read more [...]
