    It is hard to see anyone beating a Fury who can box or slug it out. Neither Parker, Ruiz, Whyte or Dubois have a prayer against the Fury we saw last weekend.

    I don't like this fight at all. Fury will box his head off.
    Maybe Ruiz should change his strategy and get in shape to see how he does.

    Id tell him to get under 250lbs then he could get a shot.

    Plot twist: he never will

    Well, "traditional," out-boxing style Fury would have zero problems. Zero.

    However, the new "aggressive" Fury would probably get ****ed up trying to go toe-to-toe with Ruiz.

    I assume Fury would be smart enough to come in with the right game-plan, but you never know.

    Something happened in the Fury-Wallin fight -- Fury overlooked something. The same could happen with Ruiz.

    It seems clear to me that Fury has always dreamed of being an aggressive, offense-styled boxer. I just hope the win over Wilder doesn't go to Fury's head too much, resulting in him trying to use that same, aggressive style against the wrong opposition -- like Ruiz.

    If he couldn’t touch Joshua in the rematch, he has absolutely no chance against Fury.

    I dont know and dont care. Its a good fight for the division and I hope it happens at some point in the next 18 months.

    AJ, Usyk and Ruiz.

    These are the only names worth Furys time right now, imo.

    Aggressive behavior is key for me as well. AJ IMO isn't a fighter. He is a boxer. Fury is a boxer who can fight if need be. A little bit of that Holy mindset. He prefers to box- but might mix it up if he has to. That would be advantageous to Ruiz.

    In theory yes, But I attribute the rematch of AJ-Ruiz win to a potshot then clinch style. Fury's defense is much more diverse & illusive IMO.
    Yes you are right he probably won't touch Fury...but for a different reason is my point.

    He would have to earn his shot. Something he has never done in his life.

    Ruiz too small and too fat to even come close for a good matchup against Fury.
    He should fight Wilder instead if he can stay away from them snickers.

    Exactly this. Ruiz would get a painful boxing lesson, the like he's never had before.

    Ref saves him from a beat down in the later rounds and loses every round until that point

    Andy Ruiz vs Anthony Joshua III is the best match-up for Andy Snickers Ruiz

    I'd like to see Ruiz go after Ortiz and then try to get a chance at Wilder. Winner gets to compete for a belt again.

    Ruiz just wants $$$$$. He doesn't even train anymore and he doesn't deserve a title shot.

    Have you guys seen the video of Ruiz lately? Dude look 300 plus now. If he was serious after that embarrassment he wouldn’t be even more obese.

    He should be in the gym. Posting some of his training and calling out all champs and contenders. So far all he has done was make excuse and fired his trainer.
