Andy Ruiz Jr proved not only the oddsmakers wrong but most fans Saturday night when he defeated Anthony Joshua to become the new heavyweight champion of the world. There is a rematch clause and it’s expected to take place later this year in either the UK or Mexico.
“I’d love to be in Mexico, there’s never been a heavyweight champion in Mexico so I’d love to have a rematch there.. I’m still pinching myself that this is true, all that hard work and dedication, I’ve made my dreams come true.”
