Andy Ruiz Jr. vs Anthony Joshua II, billed as Clash On The Dunes, was a heavyweight professional boxing rematch between the Mexican-American champion Andy Ruiz Jr. and British former champion Anthony Joshua, for the unified WBA (Super), IBF, WBO and IBO heavyweight world titles. The event took place on December 7, 2019, at the Diriyah Arena, Diriyah, Saudi Arabia.

After losing by seventh-round technical knockout to Andy Ruiz Jr. on June 1, 2019, at Madison Square Garden in New York City in one of the biggest upsets in the history of boxing, Joshua stated in a post-fight interview that he and his team certainly expected to exercise the rematch clause with Ruiz.

Four days after the fight took place, Joshua’s promoter and group managing director of Matchroom Sport Eddie Hearn announced on social media platforms that Joshua’s management team triggered the contractual rematch clause with Ruiz.

Saudi Arabian authorities reportedly paid £30 million ($41.1 million) to host the event in Saudi Arabia.

Amir Khan vs. Marcos Maidana was a professional boxing match contested on December 11, 2010, for the WBA Light welterweight championship.
The bout was awarded Fight of the Year by the Boxing Writers Association of America.

On 9 March 2010, Golden Boy Promotions confirmed that WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan and former light welterweight world champion Paulie Malignaggi will hold a press conference in London to announce their world title bout set for 15 May at the Madison Square Garden in New York. This was Khan’s first bout in the U.S. The fight was for the WBA light welterweight title, which Khan won in the 11th round.

Immediately after the fight, Khan stated he wanted to fight Marcos Maidana next and unify the light-welterweight division, suggesting that the way to do this would be for him to fight Maidana, and then go on to face the winner of a Devon Alexander vs. Timothy Bradley match.

Maidana, after failing to challenge undefeated WBO Junior Welterweight champion Timothy Bradley, postponed the fight to June 19 due to a back injury suffered by Maidana.

On May 3, Maidana pulled out of the fight yet again, still citing his back as the problem. The fight had already been rescheduled from June 19 to July 17, and Bradley went on to fight Luis Carlos Abregu on July 17, instead of Maidana.

After failing to secure the fight with Bradley, Maidana’s camp announced that he would fight former-WBO junior welterweight champ DeMarcus Corley, on August 28, 2010 at the Luna Park Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Maidana went on to go and win by unanimous decision.

Khan was looking for a good opponent to next challenge him for his title. One of his possible opponents was Lightweight Champion Juan Manuel Marquez. Marquez decided not to move up in weight and stayed at lightweight.

Maidana then stated his intention to fight Khan: “Stop looking for possible opponents for next Khan December 11 in England. Stop looking for lightweight boxers and face the real 140-pounders. I’ll go to Khan’s home soil to take the other portion of the WBA title that belongs to me.”

The HBO-televised fight took place at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas.

Guaranteed fight purses:

Amir Khan ($1,500,000) vs. Marcos Maidana ($550,000)

Wladimir Klitschko vs. David Haye, billed as The Talk Ends Now, was a heavyweight unification fight between IBF, WBO, IBO, and The Ring champion Wladimir Klitschko, and WBA champion David Haye. The fight took place in Imtech Arena, Altona, Hamburg, Germany on July 2, 2011.

In 2008 after becoming unified cruiserweight champion, David Haye moved up to heavyweight. Klitschko welcomed the challenge of Haye. Talks started immediately between Klitschko and Haye but came to nothing, even after Haye publicly confronted and challenged Klitschko at an event at the ExCeL London in April 2008. Haye reiterated a challenge to Klitschko to fight him in 2009. In his second fight, he wanted to fight JD Chapman who he claimed was a similar style to the Klitschkos.

Haye also added that the heavyweight division was scared of him. In July 2008 Wladimir Klitschko said that Haye was a possible opponent for him to fight next. Haye started to call out the Klitschkos after he knocked out Monte Barret in the 5th round in 2008.

In late 2008 Haye and Vitali verbally agreed to terms to fight in the summer. However Klitschko fought mandatory challenger, Juan Carlos Gomez. Haye then turned his sights to Wladimir.

In 2009 after protracted talks, Wladimir agreed to fight Haye on 20 June in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. In the build-up to that fight Klitschko labeled Haye an ’embarrassment’ after Haye appeared wearing a T-shirt with the Klitschkos’ severed heads.] He also vowed to knock Haye out in the 12th round. Haye pulled out of the fight with a back injury, and hoped to postpone the fight until July 11. This did not happen and Haye was replaced by Ruslan Chagaev who Klitschko stopped in 9th round.

Since then both Vitali and Wladimir had wanted to fight Haye, with Vitali wanting to have a fight with Haye in 2010 which never happened. Instead, Haye won the WBA title after defeating Nikolay Valuev.

On 16 April 2009, Haye wore a T-shirt depicting him holding the heads of the Klitschko brothers while standing atop their decapitated bodies. At the same time, he declared a war on both the Klitschko brothers, hoping to first defeat Wladimir, then Vitali. Two press conferences were held in announcement of the fight. The first one took place in Hamburg, the second in London. There was also an HBO Face Off held in New York City. At the HBO Face Off, Haye said that you could feel the tension and “almost cut it with a knife”. He also thought that Klitschko would punch him during the interview. Yet again Haye refused to shake Klitschko’s hand.

A pre-fight news conference was held on June 27 in Hamburg. No new things were said. Haye got up and said that Klitschko was like a robot, and would malfunction on fight night. He said he was happy the fight was happening, because he was just a much better fighter. He also said that he would show a totally new game plan and would not fight like he had done in his other fights. Haye proclaimed that you could play his new iPhone game David Haye’s knockout, where you could see what would happen on July 2.

Haye’s trainer Adam Booth got up to the microphone and only said: “Enjoy”, and gave the word to Klitschko’s trainer Emanuel Steward. Steward said it was a big fight and he was very happy. He said that he would rate it as the 2nd biggest, only behind Lennox Lewis vs. Mike Tyson. Klitschko said that he did not like Haye’s attitude and that he would give him a lesson. He said he respected him as a fighter but not as a person. He promised to knock Haye out and that it would be good for Haye as a person.Vitali Klitschko wanted Haye to promise to be at the post press conference in front of everybody. Haye promised and said that Vitali should promise the same and not go with Wladimir to the ambulance after Haye had knocked him out. There was a scuffle and some punches between the two teams at the staredown, where Klitschko’s manager Bernard Bönte wanted to end the staredown early (the previous occasion, it had lasted almost three minutes).

The weigh in took place on 1 July 2011 at Karstadt Sporthaus, Hamburg. Wladimir Klitschko weighed in at 243 lbs (110 kg). David Haye weighed in at 213 lbs (96 kg)

When being asked about the outcome, Mike Tyson believed Haye had “no chance” of beating Klitschko, while Lennox Lewis was more supportive of Haye, believing that he “has the speed, agility, endurance and strength to do it”.
