Andy Ruiz vs. Anthony Joshua Tale of the Tape: Records, Heights, Reach
Andy Ruiz Jr. and Anthony Joshua are getting ready for their rematch at Diriyah Arena in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, on Saturday.

Now, the two fighters will meet again to determine if either Ruiz's first win was a fluke or if Joshua can take back his championship belts.
