AJ and his promotor Eddie Hearn triggered the automatic rematch clause almost immediately after Ruiz shocked the world on June 1 with his TKO win at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

A win for either Joshua or Ruiz could open the door for a number of potential fights with WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder and lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury in mid-to-late 2020.
