Joshua, 30, outlasted his former conqueror on Saturday night in the rerun of June’s shock encounter in New York, sealing a deservedly unanimous decision at the Diriyah Arena just outside Riyadh. On an evening impacted by inclement weather, Joshua reigned supreme against his much-heavier opponent, eventually taking the fight 118-10, 118-10, 119-109. It avenged his surprise defeat to Ruiz at Madison Square Garden - the only blot on his 24-bout CV - and guaranteed Joshua reclaimed the WBA, IBF and WBO belts from the Mexican-American.
