Amir Khan has given his verdict on the forthcoming rematch between Andy Ruiz Jr. and fellow-Briton Anthony Joshua taking place in Saudi Arabia. Joshua follows in Khan’s footsteps in headlining the Middle Eastern country after his win over Billy Dib last summer. After being dropped four times by Ruiz in surrendered his title at Madison Square Garden, somewhere Khan also topped last spring, Joshua is under massive pressure to win. Ruiz has become a multi-millionaire and Mexican hero since becoming the first heavyweight champion from those shores. Khan believes the 30 year-old will be in much better shape this time around. The pair have history too as Khan held camps at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym back when Ruiz was a whippersnapper coming through the ranks. As much as Khan would like to see Joshua gain revenge, the Bolton man has alerted the 2012 Olympic gold medalist of the continued danger afoot.
