Anthony Joshua vs Andy Ruiz 2: Evander Holyfield advises Joshua for his re-match with Andy Ruiz

A lot of boxing fans claimed that Andy Ruiz got the victory against Anthony Joshua by fluke and Joshua will avenge his loss at Clash of Dunes in Saudi Arabia, but Evander Holyfield thinks differently. The man who beat Mike Tyson feels that Anthony Joshua needs to change his boxing tactics if he wants to win his titles back in the re-match against Andy Ruiz.  Ruiz dominated the entire match in his first-encounter against Anthony Joshua and Holyfield believes that it can happen again

According to Evander Holyfield, Andy Ruiz is a great boxer who got knocked down early in the match but got back up and made sure he beats Anthony Joshua for the titles. Holyfield believes that Ruiz will fight the same way in their re-match and if Joshua fails to change his gameplan, the re-match will go down in the same way. Evander Holyfield's opinion has brought down a sense of fear among Anthony Joshua fans and it is legitimate with how the first encounter went.

“You look at Ruiz and he doesn’t look like he can fight at all. Nothing tells you he can fight, but he can fight” said Evander Holyfield in interaction with American media.
