Clary/AFP/Getty Images 2012 Olympic Gold Medalist and former IBF, WBO, and IBO heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua was knocked out in the seventh round at Madison Square Garden Saturday night by massive betting odds underdog Andy Ruiz Jr. Ruiz handed Joshua his first professional loss and shocked the boxing world with the upset. A rematch is now likely to take place in October or November later this year, where Joshua will get the chance to win his belts back. Ruiz claims, he would love to stage his rematch in Mexico. “I’d love to do the rematch, but first I’ve got to talk to my team,” said the newly-crowned WBA Super, IBF and WBO king. “We’ll go from there and figure things out. I’d love it to be in Mexico. There’s never been a heavyweight champion in Mexico so I’d love to have a rematch there. I’m still pinching myself that this is true, all that hard work and dedication, I’ve made my dreams come true. We’ve been working for this my whole life. It’s overwhelming and I’m just excited.” Source-The Mirror
