The 29-year-old British star was stunned by Ruiz when the pair met at Madison Square Garden in June.

Joshua was knocked down four times by the Mexican fighter – who was 25/1 with many bookies going into the fight – before the fight was called off in the seventh round.

Ruiz now holds the IBF, WBO, IBO and WBA (Super) Heavyweight title belts, but Joshua will be keen to grab them all back in one piece when the pair step back into the ring in December.
