Andy Ruiz Jr. (33-1, 22 KOs) is still determined to weigh less than before his first fight against Anthony Joshua (22-1, 21 KOs). Before the first fight the Mexican was 268 pounds.

"Now that I am 10 pounds lighter, I'm faster, I will throw more punches and move better," promised the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion during a training session in San Diego on Sunday.

"I lose 10 pounds, but didn't lost strength. Anyway, I'll be stronger and faster, even though he is going to run in the ring the whole night," said the Mexican "Destroyer", who, however, at the open training session did not look very slim.
