    Dont get your beef with Hearn, mate. Two words are probably enough, here : Frank Warren!

    I hope the little, fat, Mexican pig destroys Robotshua.

    Robotshua is hideous, the sort of 'Stay Humble', media-friendly-faggit that zero-testosterone faggits like James Cordon & Graham Norton like on their shitty TV shows


    Seriously, how can any fucker want Robotshua to win?

    From an AMERICAN Perspective, Hearn Dug His Own Grave By Negotiating in PISS POOR Faith w/the Wilder Camp...In That Sense he Brought a Butterknife to a Gun-Fight...

    Hearn Kept Harping on the ATTENDANCE of Joshua's Fights But Here In the States the LIVE GATE Is of the Utmost Importance...Who Gives a Fuck if 70,000 People Saw You Fight if You're Charging Bargain Basement Prices for those Seats???...

    It was Acknowledged from the Outset (By Team Wilder) Joshua SHOULD Get the Lion's Share, Then Hearn Offered an ABSURDLY Low Flat Fee of $15mil to Wilder...No % of PPV...

    Team Wilder Pointed Out $100mil or More Could Be Made on the Fight THEN Joshua Said "If Someone Promised Me $50mil, I'd Sign Tomorrow"...Well, in LESS Than a Week's Time, Team Wilder (Al Haymon and Shelly Finkel to Be Specific) Came Up w/a Business Plan, a Contract AND a Letter of Credit Guaranteeing Joshua $50mil...

    What Did Hearn Do???..."I Haven't Seen Proof of an Offer, I Never Received It"..."Is that a LEGIT Letter of Credit", etc...A 3rd Party VALIDATED the Letter of Credit, Substantiating the $50mil Offer, Time Stamps from Emails and Faxes were Made PUBLIC, Then Hearn Got Silent...Not Loooooooooooong Afterward "Oh, AJ Will Be Stripped if he Doesn't Fulfill His Mandatory Against Povetkin"....

    Come to Find Out Hearn PAID the Sanctioning Body (WBA if REED's Not Mistaken) to Enforce a Mandatory They Really Weren't Interested in Exercising Anytime Soon...And Then, of Course, We Find Out Hearn was Negotiating w/DAZN All the While...

    Bear in Mind, Joshua DOES NOT Have a Contract w/DAZN Himself, Eddie Hearn and Matchroom Does...

    The Whole Thing was a Comedy of Errors and a JUVENILE Attempt @ Getting Over On Dudes Who've Been in Business Since BEFORE Hearn Was Even Born...Sure, Promoters Fuck Over FIGHTERS Everyday...But it's Not Often a Promoter Goes to a FOREIGN Land and Attempts to Pull a Fast One on the ESTABLISHED Promoters Of That Land...

    'Preciate it...

    Takes LESS Time to Create/Edit This Way, But That Said, YouTube Research Shows Viewers Like the Format Switched Up...Even Those w/Studios are Encouraged to Switch Up the Scenery Every Sooooo Often...

    REED's Format Depends on Time of Day, Time Available and How Many Motherfuckers are @ his Crib @ the Moment:Jest:...When REED's In the Jeep it's Usually Because the Wife, Daughters and GrandKids are Home...

    I want Joshua to win. I've gone off him a bit since his early pro days, but to be honest that's mainly down to Eddie whispering in his ear. It's better for boxing if AJ wins. I'm very, very dubious over whether he will actually win though. If he goes in with the mindset that he wants to take Ruiz's head off and get him out of there early, I think it may backfire and he'll tire and Ruiz will stop him again. I think he needs to box smart and make it ugly in order to win. Jab, jab, hold. It's not exciting but it may be what he needs to do to win.

    Is AJ better for boxing though really?

    The thought of a short fat Mexican heavyweight who can throw hands and take punches going around beating everyone is like a Rocky story to me.

    Yep

    Joshua will win because it's been set up for him this time.

    We wont have any pesky people looking into this one too much.

    Could be.
    Ruiz Jr, clearly has been affected by the last purse, a measly US$9m - which is what he is getting this time due to the rematch fixed-guarantee - Hearn/Matchroom could have slipped him an extra US$2-3m: ´no need to do any cardio whatsoever for the rematch, son, just throw a few flashy combos in the public session´

    Changed my mind on this one. Still don't much care, but since Ruiz decided to be a pig i hope for a Joshua KO.

    Fights like this actually harm boxing, so people saying "It is better if so and so wins" are really saying "It's not as bad provided so and so wins".

    Saudi Arabia? Zero compassion shithole, really.

    They wouldn't shake the hand of a black man down there, they do Joshuas, for the cameras, but really that place makes 30's Alabama look like a chapter meeting of the NAACP.

    They got slaves and everything down there.

    I just hope it's as fair a deal as possible. But I think it's already been arranged, really.

    Eddie Hearn came on TV and said "I am petrified".

    That's bollox. He knows this one is sorted. Everything else is window dressing.

    I won't be buying it.........I bought Prograis vs Taylor, but not this shit.

    I think so.

    I saw him on TV...."I am petrified".

    Sure mate.

    Ruiz people have cashed in.

    Joshua starts the same prohibitive favourite as in the first fight.
