It still seems to me an in shape Ruiz can compete very well with the best. Arreola will get destroyed Saturday. Ruiz looks to be in great shape. Berlanga has Tyson and Duram power.
There appears to be a problem with the proposed dates for the first Joshua vs Fury fight.
The 3 possible dates of July 24th or 31st or August 7th coincide with the Summer Olympics which take place in Japan between July 23rd and August 8th.
As Joshua's trainer, Rob McCracken, is also head of Team GB boxing he will be in Japan before July 23rd and probably right through the whole fortnight.
This means that any of the proposed three dates for Joshua - Fury would make it difficult for Rob to be in Joshua's corner.
I really can't see Joshua agreeing to a date that would mean his long time trainer (amateur & pro) can't be in the corner with him for the most important fight of his career.
I believe Herring has only about a couple of weeks to commit to the Stevenson defence or he has to vacate. I like the Valdez fight for Herring better than the Stevenson.
