    Joshua is from a country with the shyttest weather on Earth. And has the shyttest stamina out of all the top HWs due to his muscle mass.

    It's Joshua who should be worrying about the fight being in an outdoor stadium.
    ... yes... the idea is that warm and dry weather favors the Mexican fighter, apparently...

      I would have thought it will be absolutely perfect conditions.
      ... exactly... (Ruiz would be favored, I guess...)

        I think who is being favoured will depend on who your conspiracy theories are against.

        Getting the excuses in early.

          When people see how easy this fight will be for Joshua they'll see I was correct about Joshua taking a dive in the first fight

            Acclimatization may be a factor in this fight, I was abit concerned of how LATE both fighters arrived in the country 'As they are fighting at 600m + above sea level/altitude'

            Actually this is more of a concern for Anthony Joshua, but I suppose in his sports science facility they have taken this into account.

            I am still picking Anthony Joshua to win.

                Ruiz's is going to be sweating his 4ss off. I wish they would have just done this fight regular.
                It is going to be about 18degC (65degF).

                  The altitude of Riyadh equates to about 1-2% drop in VO2max

                    This is the core sentence: "Without having faced, let alone defeated the other heavyweight champs expected to challenge him".

                    The problem with AJ is that he's locking up the division [or, better, his promoter is].

                    It's as if Holmes never faced Spinks or even big George never faced Ali. There are actually plenty of examples where champs could have avoided matching up with their peers, yet decided to face them.

                    If Ruiz wins again, which I hope, the hw division will be free. I Imagine unification bouts and big championship matches in the next 2 years in that case. Otherwise, we'll witness to AJ facing top 30 unknown fighters for years to come.

                      LOL. Look at what you typed. Useless, baseless and means nothing. You dont ever add any substance to anything you type. Just make little empty digs. Just like your post in this thread.

                      Derrr, AJ got beat Derrr. WOW very insightful. Derr AJ took the rematch to Saudi Derrr. WOW very insightful.
