Anthony Joshua vs. Andy Ruiz Jr The Rematch

Saudi Arabia holds the rematch, as Anthony Joshua attempts to regain his belts!

The first meeting of Anthony Joshua and Andy Ruiz Jr happened at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York, U.S on June 1, 2019.

Other "better" fighters such as Detony Wilder, Tyson Fury and Jarrell Miller who was disqualified due to failing 3 drug tests all passed up the chance to grab AJ's collection of Heavyweight belts.

He held a unified list of heavyweight belts, the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO. Why wouldn't a fighter like Detony Wilder who only holds a seemingly lesser ranked WBC belt want the chance to take them all of AJ?

I have no idea and there are lots of conspiracy talks in the boxing forums on social media but AJ did not expect to lose to Andy Ruiz by TKO in the seventh round, ending Anthony Joshua's undefeated record and becoming the new unified heavyweight champion.



That win over AJ is considered to be one of the biggest upsets in boxing history.

People have even compared it to fights such as Mike Tyson v Buster Douglas in 1990 and Lennox Lewis v Hasim Rahman in 2001.

The only other belt out there that really matters is the WBC held by the super puncher, Detony Wilder, who drew with Tyson Fury after knocking him down twice, and a recent win over Luis Ortiz, 10 years his elder, and although looking unfit seemed to be inside Wilders head with his two step jab technique. Until blam, Wilder got a clean straight right hand bomb on Luis that ended the fight straight away.

Why are there all these belts I think this video might help but personally I think there should only be one belt, one heavyweight champion of the world and not 5+ belts out there with the possibility of 5+ people calling themselves heavyweight champions.


Now what will happen in the rematch which for the 1st time is being held earlier in the day with the big fight around 9pm and shown on Sky Box Office, with probably a pass on BT to watch as well. Although there are tons of online streaming services and apps that will allow you to watch the fight for free if you can find them.

If AJ is capable of handling bombs on his chin better than before then he stands a good chance but if during his loss Ruiz floored AJ 4 times and I can see no reason why he can't be capable of doing it again tomorrow night.

What do you think?

Does AJ stand a chance of getting his 4 belts back?

Or will Andy Ruiz land him on the canvas multiple times again. 

Here is a build up video for the rematch.

The Fight Between Amir Khan versus Terence Crawford

The fight between Amir Khan and Terence Crawford was a bit of a letdown as it ended with Khan throwing in the towel after a very heavy low blow to Khans lower regions.

Some people are saying he took the easy option to get out of the fight as he knew he was going to lose to Crawford who was outboxing him easily in New York's Madison Square Gardens arena.

Others would disagree as it was a bit of a low way to win a fight with an illegal punch. Khan could have taken the 5 minutes allowed before deciding to carry on or not but he immediately indicated to his team that he couldn't and Crawford won by default.

I bet the fans who paid to watch the fight in New York or on Pay Per View felt pretty let down to see the headline fight end with such an ending.

Amir Khan v Terence Crawford - Full Fight

Let me know what you think about the way it ended.

Did Amir Khan throw in the towel due to real pain which is perfectly possible, or should he have waited the 5 minutes allowed before deciding?

Surely Crawford would have had a point deducted for that whack to Khans lower region and Khan could have carried on and at least fought to the end.

Top Boxing Tonight as Amir Khan fights ,Terence Crawford at Madison Square Garden, New York

Crawford has a perfect 34-fight record and has seen him capture 3 world titles in different weight classes, including holding all four belts to become an undisputed champion at super-lightweight in 2017.

Khan's last world-title shot saw him knocked out by Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez in 2016. The former super-lightweight champion had stepped up to middleweight to face the classy Mexican but questions over the durability of his chin arrived quickly nonetheless.

The money is definitley on Khan to lose tonight in the US and you can watch it on BT Sport of check out this facebook page for free films, sport and TV.
