You hear that sound? That's the sound of the stadium being built coming to a screeching halt.

Why would Eddie go over there to those people and lie to them?

BWaHaahaHA!!

So when I posted last week that the fight probably won’t happen in Saudi Arabia, where are all the morons at now?

Saudi Arabia......

BWaHaahaHA!!!

All the greats and hall of famers have came and fought in America. Fight capitol of the world. Land of the Giants.

I get that bro, but to add a lot of the all time greats and hall of famers also fought all over the world..which adds to the question I made.

That is what matters the most. Ruiz knows he can take Joshua's best shot. Joshua knows he can't take Ruiz's. Who hasn't given Joshua credit, the dude can fight he just got whooped.

Joshua got hit with a temple shot and never recovered, it wasn't like Ruiz knocked him out cold with a punch to the jaw and he still made it to round 7.

I think Ruiz will beat Joshua in the rematch but Joshua can handle his power.

Just looking at Fluffy he is obviously not very smart. He doesn't know what he is legally binded to after signing a contract. He just thought did you say snicker burgers for life? I'm in!

Can some of my American brothers answer this question for me please...why is it that any fighter that’s not from the U.S is expected at some point to fight in America but American fighters are not expected to travel and get no criticism in doing so? Seems like double standards but if there’s a legitimate reason I’m all ears.

it’s like this newbie from an American brother. These are your beliefs. When you are on this board long enough believe you will see Americans getting criticized if they don’t fight overseas. Why do you think AJ / wilder never got done ??? Location and money were 2 big things for both of them . But understand this , wilder was in Russia ready to fight povetkin until povetkin failed his drug test , Spence went to England to dethrone brook. Brook cake to America to beat porter. I think the real issue here is , if Aj want to be a global champion and on the level of a great champion he has to fight and win ( which I think he doubts himself ) in America. No matter what Las Vegas is the fight capital of the world . Sure Aj packs 80k fans ( tickets are cheap) in the UK and is a PPV star there , but PPV over there are what $30.00 and here it’s like a $100.00 , that makes a difference. To sum it up Aj has hype built around him , from Hearn , to his record, to the 80k fans that goes to his fights , so America wants to see what his about and not just read about him on the internet.

Understood. Actually didn't look at it that way. Ruiz should fight him on neutral grounds tho like Australia or some ish.

Do you realise the time difference between Australia and the US & UK. Neither fighter is from here, Australia wouldn't put up $40M to hold it, live gate would be lower, site fee would be lower, telecast rights would be terrible, it would be financially insane.

I'm from Australia so I'd back it, but it wouldn't happen for very good reasons.

Alotta fighters get dropped but it’s what happens after that counts and Ruiz got up and ktfo of Joshua

If you think Ruiz isn’t fighting Joshua next you are delusional it’s not about if they will fight it’s about Ruiz not letting himself get set up he’s making sure that snake Hearn doesn’t get his way.

Love Ruiz for it.

He didn't KTFO Joshua, he won by TKO by the ref waving it off.

Ruiz will lose in court if he doesn't fight...he is wasting his time, Hearn owes him nothing.

I like it! I definitely feel Al is behind this. You present a decent motive. I doubt Ruiz just got to thinking lol... People are so confident about how the contract is set for this match. There are a lot of possibilities.

It's gotta be Al Haymon Man. He calls the shots for all his fighter's..
I guess we'll have to wait and see how all this plays out...
