What Anthony Joshua brutally told old rival Andy Ruiz Jr moments after Otto Wallin win

ANTHONY JOSHUA had some words for old rival Andy Ruiz Jr just moments after beating Otto Wallin.

Ruiz was ringside in Saudi Arabia to watch the fight, four years on from losing his rematch to AJ in the Middle East.

And he saw Joshua, 34, dispatch of Wallin, 32, in five dominant rounds.

In behind-the-scenes Matchroom Boxing footage, it captures the moment AJ spots Ruiz by ringside.

He walks over and says: “So you know, I’m calm now. I’m better now.”

Ruiz in June 2019 famously stunned Joshua to his first ever defeat by dropping him four times before a round seven stoppage.

But AJ enacted revenge six months later in Diriyah over 12 rounds.

Ruiz, 34, has chased the lucrative trilogy decider ever since but his chances were brutally put down by Derek Chisora.

He told iFL TV: “I just wanted to see if AJ wanted to run it back and get the trilogy, but maybe not.”

And Chisora, 40, bluntly replied: “I will tell you right now. You are not on Joshua’s radar. He’s fighting [Filip] Hrgovic right now for the IBF.

“He wants to be a three-time world champion. He’s not going to fight you. You’re not on his radar.

“I’ll be honest with you, do you understand?”

Joshua’s next fight has since been announced against Francis Ngannou, 37, the ex-UFC champion who controversially lost to Tyson Fury in October.

But Ruiz has not boxed since beating Luis Ortiz, 44, in September 2022 and looks no closer to a return.
