Why do Brits act like they read the contract that Ruiz signed?

More name calling, grow up and debate..stop being so emotional...Rematch is not the debate, it is the lies about location and posters you like taking it as gospel like you have the contract at homeComment

Ok. I know the popular comeback to the Brits' perspective is, "You can't say jack-sheet cuz you've never actually seen the contract".
So yeah, I think they get that and are fully aware who is and isn't privy to the contract details.
The point is, a "rematch clause" included in the original contract has been exercised. The promoter for Joshua has given every impression that Ruiz may be in breach of contract IF he refuses to fight in a particular venue.
All the Brits are saying is, without knowing all the details, IF Andy Ruiz is trying to renegotiate a contract that he signed in good faith, then that is generally frowned upon, possibly shady, and one of the things wrong in the world today.
Now...has it become somewhat standard practice to force litigation when one regrets signing a contract, in order to make alterations or concessions on either side ? I think so.
OF COURSE none of the NSB faithful have seen the contract. But I don't think there's anything wrong with assuming that Andy Ruiz is likely attempting to insert some leverage over said "rematch clause".
I'm American and I tend to believe Eddie Hearn when he said, "Andy was happy as pie to sign the contract for the first fight, being fully aware of the rematch clause." Sure, I'm the first to admit I don't know what happens behind closed doors or what all is in the rematch clause. But if I had to guess, based on common sense and the history of world champion rematch contracts, I'd say Ruiz's camp is looking for some loopholes to gain leverage on where the fight takes place and how much his purse cut is. Does that sound relatively reasonable ?
So...I don't think it's that much of a stretch to reference the lack of credibility involved in not readily honoring a previously signed contract. Just because litigating your way out of a contract has become acceptable in many circles, that doesn't make it right. If the roles were reversed, wouldn't Americans be saying the same thing ?
Peace.

No lies about location. Hearn says he has a contract from before the first fight that says Joshua chooses the location of the rematch, they've chosen Saudi Arabia. Where's the lies?
Ruiz not wanting to honour the contract does not make Hearn a liar. You PBC shill.Comment

Ruiz is saying he isnt fighting there and obviously debating what Hearn is saying..so they seem to be negotiating..No lies about location. Hearn says he has a contract from before the first fight that says Joshua chooses the location of the rematch, they've chosen Saudi Arabia. Where's the lies?

If Hearn was lying about the contract don't you think someone from Ruiz's team would have said what Hearn is lying about by now? No rational person would be questioning it right now. It's obviously what Hearn says it is.Comment

Ruiz himself just said the contract was not accurate and that is what they are negotiating nowComment
