if its anything like the Amir Khan Saudi show though there may be soem delays with the comper guy running through the crowd talking shite and some American Rappers being flown in to go through a few numbers before the fight.

If that's the case i'm gonna struggle to catch it! Going to some Elfingrove Santa pish in Glasgow with the kids and that doesn't start till 6.30! Was hoping for a 10pm start :witzend:
Cheers Gaz :TU:

I didn't know they were allowed rap music in SA :lol:

Yes!

If the stars aren’t aligning for AJ UD, I don’t know what more needs to be said. Get your money on it and avoid complaining later.

Ruiz by stoppage for me again , think AJ will be caught between styles now and trying to play the cautious game .
Ruiz will be super confident aswell .

Price V Thompson springs to mind , didnt they say Thompson caught him with a " Lucky" punch behind the ear in first fight and expected him to redeem himself in the 2nd , i hope its a cracking fight though .

May the best man win but i feel they have dragged this out to cash in for 6 months dining on AJ wasnt right for the first fight before he gets beat again and the Gravy train is severley drained.

For the record i wont be paying for it though . if the streams or IPTV are not working great im happy to wait for the result. SKY can fornicate off with that. didnt mind paying for the Taylor V Prograis one but this is a shit card.

If AJ has lost his desire, tactics won't matter. Working behind a busy jab for 12 rds will also be more difficult than we imagine. Parker through alot of jabs, and didn't score so much as he made Ruiz play defense. A little more aggression from Andy, and he'd have won that bout. As it was, the decision could easily have gone either way, and since then Ruiz has improved a bit.

Ruiz also landed some belters on Parker that would/did crumple AJ.

I think AJ will be coming in maybe 7lb's lighter - anything more would suggest that he has let everyones suggestions get to his head.

I mean, losing 7lbs won't make him Mo Farah over night. Posture and style has a look to do with it. Lennox was a heavy set, big boned banger but he could go rounds if needed because was was so relaxed and untense. AJ is still and tense and that drains energy levels quickly but that's mainly because he's not a natural and Lennox was

I’m not sure JR has been really training, his blog vids look legit and he’s scoffing pizza and shopping and talking about another f****ing day at the gym and how he wants to just get it over with ...this was the day before he left for SÁ....a man enjoying the good life no doubt ..

If AJ takes it late the big Mexican dude is gonna be in trouble

After all the talk of big weight loss and body transformation from the first fight it sure doesn't look it

AJ was on the Bunce podcast the other night saying he will be around 5KG lighter (11 lbs) and could come in under 17 stone, you have to go back to 2014 to see AJ under 238lbs.

Exactly. Its not hard to see that he's been enjoying himself. I just don't think his heart is in it, but the first few rounds will be interesting.

If anyone’s heart is in question it’s Joshuas.

Andy was already a fat blob when he beat AJ so he has that working for him, but the weight loss and body transformation stuff was defo just some photo flattery

The weigh in will tell us
Tell us what? Joshua is ripped like an Adonis and Ruiz is a fat fvck? Makes no difference, as we’ve already seen.

Can you really tell with a guy like Ruiz though?
