Yesterday at the headquarters of WBO Andy Ruiz Jr. (33-1, 22 KOs) was presented with the world championship belt in the heavyweight division, which he acquired on June 1, by defeating Anthony Joshua (22-1, 21 KOs). During a press conference organized at the event, a new champion has assured, that he will not be satisfied with one victory in the title fight.

"My name will remain in history, because I am the first Mexican heavyweight champion. I feel great, because I achieved success after all my sacrifies. I have what I had dreamed since I was six," said Ruiz. "I do not want it to be just 15 minutes of fame. In my second meeting I will have more will to win!"

Rematch between Anthony Joshua and Andy Ruiz Jr. may be held in November or December in New York City or Cardiff.
