Andy Ruiz Jnr will beat Anthony Joshua again - Deontay Wilder

Andy Ruiz Jnr will beat Anthony Joshua again - Deontay Wilder

Wilder talks highly of Andy Ruiz Jnr.

WBC Boxing World Heavyweight Champion Deontay Wilder says Andy Ruiz Jnr will beat Anthony Joshua again in their Heavyweight title rematch next Sunday.

Speaking in an interview, Wilder says if the first fight between the pair is anything to go by then Ruiz will win the rematch easily.

Fresh after knocking out Luis Ortiz for the WBC Title last Sunday, Wilder says as a fighter he saw certain things in the first fight and if the two boxers go into the fight with the same mindset, the outcome wont be any different.

He also says that a Ruiz win will be good for him as he finally will get the opportunity to unify the Heavyweight division, something which is highly unlikely if Joshua wins.

The 'Clash On The Dunes', as the fight is being dubbed, is the first World Heavyweight Boxing title fight to be held in the Middle East.

Joshua will fight Ruiz at 10am next Sunday in Saudi Arabia.
