Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Will Decide Rematch Location - NOT Andy Ruiz

[Eff Pandas]

Not once has he stated that it is in the contract that AJ can choose the location. If so then why are they still negotiating. Al Haymon is not letting those titles leave the United States buddy.

Good point. Eddie's been very cryptic & measured in what he's saying about the contract. Saying sh^t like "well isn't it usually the case the ex-champ has things in place to do x, y & x", while he never actually confirms or denies thats in the contract. So to me that means this is a standard promoter contract & its a legal mumble jumble of bs & non-definite terms & conditions that can be understood 20 different ways.

And that sorta situation is something Haymon can help Ruiz take advantage of him some way I'm f#cking positive about that or we'd have a date already I feel like.

Lmfao he’s actually suspended?? Oh Jesus.

Yep by the CSAC. So thats enforced by all the other commissions so he's effed til thats resolved.

The problem everytime Joshua fights theirs a rematch clause. I think all the Alphabet bodies should make a rule if you lose in a world title fight you need to win a fight before challenging again. Hearn is so scared if not having Joshua as a world Champ as his cash cow. The reason Hearn wants it in the UK he wants to control the fight like in the Parker fight, everytime Parker got close to unload his punches the referee broke them up. Refs don't ref like that in the States, Joshua did not know how to handle that and thats why he lost he was not protected. Eat humble pie Hearn fight in the States.

... kid, go and take a walk... (Despite the fact that 'Canelo' was the challenger -- in the 1st fight vs GGG, he was the one with a rematch clause in his contract)...

Gotta love how that’s the only thing the commissions agree on.

Not this American

A fluke is a fluke and Andy beating AJ was a fluke.

If I were AJ, I'd fight him in America and prove not only was the 1st fight a fluke, but where a fight takes place doesn't really matter.

Knocking someone down 4 times is not a fluke win.... it wasn’t a one punch and he knocked him out cold kind of fight, Ruiz dominated him most people had him losing 1-2 rounds before ref stopped the fight no way you can call that a fluke win and unless aj learns how to fight tall not have a stationary head and reflexes becomes better overnight Ruiz will win again no matter where fight takes place

[skinnystev]

it don't matter what "fast eddie" sez or where AJ fights he's getting knocked out

[REDEEMER]

So you didn’t watch the fight then? Because your argument is that Douglas dominated the entire fight because...stats. cool.


And when all arguments fail, joshua’s Protection agency is now saying that Joshua’s knock downs were pushes? Lol fine. Andy never knocked Joshua down. He still quit in his corner. While mike took his loss trying to beat the count.

Mike didn't win more then one round against Douglas and mainly was beat by a single jab ,he lasted longer because he was being giving breathing room by Douglas who worked him over on the outside.

Rematch is U.K. is the only way Joshua wins rematch

I would assume they covered almost any conceivable scenario on the contract. Andy will probably have to take the fight where and when they want it.
