• Eddie Hearn on the mic
  
  
  "Future plans are to celebrate and to celebrate hard. This man has responsible for the growth of British boxing. He won the title after 16 fights and he unified the belts after 19.
  
  “They wrote him off, he was humiliated in Madison Square Garden, they said he was all hype. But he has come back.
  
  “We got criticised for coming here, the reception we got from the people and the vision they have for boxing here is incredible.
  
  
  
  
  “We are not going to talk about other fighters, he is the king."

  Ruiz has had his say
  
  
  
  Andy Ruiz didn't disgrace himself tonight - and the Mexican wants more of Joshua in the future, despite being outclassed tonight.
  
  "I want to do it again. I came in a bit heavy and if we do the third fight I am going to come in in the best shape.
  
  I got boxed. But I want to do it again. Thank you to everyone in Saudi Arabia. Who wants to see the third trilogy fight?"
  
  Ruiz, you'll have seen, came in rather overweight for this fight - 15lbs heavier than he did for their first bout in New York.
