Joshua will be aiming to snatch back his crown and resurrect himself as arguably the top heavyweight in the sweet science.

The British boxer Anthony Joshua will on Saturday challenge his Mexican counterpart, Andy Ruiz Jr in a bid to retrieve his unified world heavyweight champion (WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO titles).

The heavyweight fight in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, is coming after Ruiz Jr defeated Joshua at Madison Square Garden in June 2019.

Fitness has been an early headline entering this bout, as both Ruiz and Joshua have noticeably slimmed down in an attempt to deliver a faster pace and be better conditioned for later rounds if they come into play.

[b]
What are they saying?
Ruiz on facing Joshua again: [/b]

“I’m confident about the rematch, but I don’t underestimate any fighter. I know AJ’s going to come stronger and more focused but inside the gym, like Mike Tyson says, everyone has a plan until they get hit.”

“I’m sure everybody was trying to look for an excuse and reason why he didn’t perform and why he lost. I think it was down to the style. Styles make fights and I’ve been calling AJ out for a while. I knew his style was perfect for me and that’s why I plan to do the same thing.”
[b]
Joshua on facing Ruiz for a second time:
[/b]
“It’s about how you come back. I have a different challenge in my head. When you’ve walked the road once, you can do it again.”

“I am looking at myself in the mirror and saying I know I’m better than that [losing last time round]. Andy is still the same person. He will come game and I’ve got to change some of my bits and bobs.”
[b]
What are the best odds?

Anthony Joshua 1/3
Andy Ruiz 12/5
Draw 25/1
