Andy Ruiz (283.7 lbs) & Anthony Joshua (237 lbs) for the rematch. Very big weight changes from their first fight.
I think round 3 of their first fight was the greatest heavyweight round of all time.

Money is on Ruiz. He has the psychological advantage.
No poll on who is going to win?

I really have no idea how this one will turn out, but I sure am excited. I can see Joshua catching Ruiz early as he did last fight, but this time putting him down for the count...but I can also see Joshua catching another sledgehammer to the temple and losing the battle with his equilibrium again, especially with Ruiz being heavier (i.e. possibly stronger) and Joshua being lighter. On that note, I think it's hilarious that there were countless stories of Ruiz being slimmed down, only to have him come in 15 lbs heavier than last fight. It seems Thanksgiving was good to him.

I think Anthony Joshua returns the favor in the 7th. Andy Ruiz been hittin' the tacos, and empanadas instead of the treadmill.

I’m picking Ruiz.
First fight wasn’t some fluke flash KO.

Joshua wasn’t taking him seriously. He’s going to eat Ruiz tomorrow, mark my words.

AJ got a clean knockdown against Ruiz, but Ruiz first knockdown on the top side of AJ’s head seemed to really mess with AJ”s equilibrium. He just weren’t the same after that. AJ tried to finish the fight too early and I don’t think he was expecting Ruiz to literally die on his sword like he did. It just paid off for Ruiz on the night.
There was talk that AJ got knocked out a few weeks prior to the fight but I don’t know if that’s true. Just something I heard on some YouTube video.

Ruiz may be heavier but it's possible he just added solid muscle. He still looked terrifyingly fast in his workouts. Let's not forget that he looked like a fat slob in the first fight too. This isn't a Buster Douglas situation.

Ruiz has to lose so they can do a third one.

Ruiz has been eating since he got to Riyadh, all coverage I've seen of him has Belgian waffles fully loaded either being consumed or on the way.

Joshua's playing a tight defensive game, shutting out Ruiz well so far except for a couple moments in the clinch. Those jabs are going to add up in the later rounds at this rate unless Ruiz makes something big happen per the first fight.
Edit: lol I say that and Joshua starts trading with him in the pocket.

Yeah, Ruiz isn't getting any combos in when he finally gets close.

AJ is definitely looking for the UD.

Looks like Ruiz is happy with the big payday and retirement
