Heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jnr says he has worked on different combinations to deal with Anthony Joshua this Sunday in their rematch in Saudi Arabia.

Ruiz, who was born in the United States but fights as a Mexican, caused one of boxing's biggest upsets in New York in June when he handed Joshua a first defeat to win the WBA, IBF and WBO title in New York.

Ruiz Jr says he knows that Joshua will be going for that left hook.

Ruiz Jr says apart from the joy of being world champion, he is also enjoying the food in Saudi Arabia.

The boxing program for the second WBA, IBF and WBO title showdown in Saudi Arabia between current world champion Andy Ruiz Jr and former champion Anthony Joshua will start at 6am this Sunday.
