Andy Ruiz refuses to commit to rematch with Anthony Joshua

[lieutenant]

If he indeed say this, he was probably advised by someone to follow this script. Anthony Joshua needs this fight more than he does, he has leverage and can extract more $$.

If Al Haymon really wanted to gain ultimate leverage, he would have Andy deny the rematch, subsidize the large fine, and match up Andy with the winner of Wilder/Ortiz. He seems dead set on freezing out DAZN, this would be the ultimate

[Curtis Harper]

Would probably cost him the whole purse from the first fight because the “damages” would be considered high

Turns out there will be a rematch in Nov/Dec. And AJ is psychologically doing the right thing by doing it in NYC. All he has to do is fight long and tall. ''Fast hands'' can't do any damage from the outside.

Rematch clause in US are only good for 12 months then they expire.

Ruiz can wait it out or he can rematch or buy out the contract.

Happens all the time.

No he won't and Fury wasn't stripped for breaking the rematch clause. He was stripped for inactivity and failing drug tests.

The sanctioning bodies to not have a role in private contracts between boxers and promoters. The fight is made and then they sanction it. That's why we have purse bids and ****.

If Andy breaks the contract he'll have to pay a fine. That's it. If Al sees money in it he may pay off the Aj contract and even the Wilder fights and make the Wilder vs Ruiz fight.

Then again, y'all, he could just retire.

If Ruiz didn't honour the rematch clause, absent specified damages, he would be liable to the financial loss of Joshua which basically bankrupts him. So he is taking the rematch.

Other than someone retiring, or Fury’s mental breakdown when has it happened?

[Earl-Hickey]

The fact people are advocating ruiz to break his word shows the character of then.

I get the feeling they just dont want Joshua to try to get his belts back. Bitter strange people. They so convinced Ruiz does the same again i thought they would love to see it again.

[Chuckguy]

He is going to fight wilder lose by brutal KO then wilder will call the shots for aj
