    I’d rather see Ruiz v Wilder and Zhang at least get a chance v Fury.

    I reckon Ruiz turns up for this one. He’s made his mistakes in the past and hopefully learnt from them. You don’t get a shot at the heavyweight crown too often. The best Fury needs to turn up otherwise it could go pear shaped.

    Tailor made for Fury. I think Fury stops him when he wants any time after 4.

    Yes hes a good fighter. IF the fight gets made and it surely must be an IF knowing Fury, as you say Fury must be prepared. Im convinced for the next year or maybe two that's the only way hell get beat, if he doesn't train and is complacent. Ruiz at his best has as much chance as any, if not too much.
    Thing is I reckon Bakole has done more to earn a shot and id rather it was him.

    He also employs them as a sparring partner - Clifton Mitchell's son

    If people think Fury is going to go out of his way to fight someone better than Ruiz who isn't a mando then you're going to be very disappointed. Besides Ruiz's cv is probably better than Wilder's.

    Good scrap potentially. Be interesting too see how Fury deals with Andy's fast hands. I think it's clear now Fury/Usyk isn't happening till the Saudi money is on the table obvs the end of the year. This is more than an acceptable tune up since Ruiz is 2 behind Bumsquad with the Wbc and surely nobody wants too see that again. Wembley also been reserved for July 15th. Seen a video recently where Usyk says he's fighting on the 22nd im assuming against Dubois. Could Frank get them on the same bill at Wembley.

    It's a nice idea but not a chance given Fury's reported financial requirements. He wanted 70% of an undisputed hw title bout, what's going to be left over once he's been paid for fighting Ruiz? Certainly not enough to pay Ruiz, Usyk and Dubois as well?

    Hard to believe the “real fighting man” is deigning to box an obese, inactive welterweight, after avoiding Usyk, described by him as a “middleweight!”

    Correction, should have read “morbidly obese, inactive, welterweight.”
