Joshua wins rematch with Ruiz Jr in Saudi Ariabia 2019

Joshua vs Ruiz Jr: rematch confirmed for Saudi Ariabia debutAnthony Joshua beats Andy Ruiz Jr to reclaim heavyweight world titles

Anthony Joshua vs Andy Ruiz - Saudi Arabia

 

Watford's Anthony Joshua regained his title, got his belts back and becomes a two-time world heavyweight champion after a tense rematch with Andy Ruiz Jr.

 

Anthony Joshua executed the plan perfectly as he hit and danced his way to victory in a performance reminiscent of Muhammad Ali - Daily Mail

 

Joshua said: 'I love nothing more than a dust-up but in the position I was in the win had to come first and there are two sides to this game. I can knock people out but I also understand the sweet science of hitting without being hit back.' So instead of trading blows it was stick and move, hit and run. It was repetitive, monotonous even. That it worked as a means to the essential end was evident on the scorecards. One of 119-109, two of 118-110 which matched my reckoning of ten rounds to two for A J. Ruiz hardly laid a glove on him.

 

'Simplicity is genius,' he said. That was intended as a loyal endorsement of his long-time trainer Rob McCracken, for whose head some miss-guided sages had been calling since the mishap in Manhattan. It also served as a rebuke to those quasi-intellectuals suddenly attaching themselves to sport and who had somehow expected him to be not so much a prize-fighter as a political philosopher.

 

Joshua's priority was ensuring that lightning did not strike twice on this night when, at the end of a sun-kissed week without a hint of rain, thunderstorms swept over the dunes. Such was the pressure on his career that as he stood sweating in his dressing room he was as dripping wet as if he had gone out into the arena before the downpour ceased.

 

Joshua touched down twice in his own third-round hell in June when he was floored four times in all by Andy Ruiz Jr.

Anthony Joshua goes Wild with Bear Grylls Friday 27 October

Bear Grylls took boxer Anthony Joshua to one of the UK’s most remote locations for new ITV ‘mission’

 

“I’m the king of my domain and right now I’m out of my comfort zone,” says AJ. “I hate bugs, I don’t like heights really. I’m used to being in the comfort of my living room, but I think let’s go for it. What’s the worst that can happen?”


AJ starts his journey dangling 50 feet below a helicopter, as Bear whisks him off to the notorious Commando Ridge in Cornwall - one of the UK’s most famous climbing faces and where the Royal Marines have trained since the Second World War. They climb up the exposed 70ft of granite rock, alpine traverses and sharp pinnacles. (Picture: Betty TV)
