    What are some of Fury’s strengths in and out of the ring?

    Being able to finish off an entire buffet and having room left over for pudding and cocaine. Avoiding reality, ducking fighters. Failing tests for PEDs, getting banned from fighting in the states due to mob connections.

    Stamina, movement, jab, psychological trashtalk, finding a way to win.
    Also conning people, ducking and abusing his body.

    Well, he can uppercut himself. Some might count that as a weakness, but because Fury never shuts up I count it as a strength.

    So we can confirm Fury is a rookie then? Ruiz would've finished the entire buffet line, then went to the back of the restaurant and cleared out the freezers one by one.

    When Andy Ruiz Jr enters a restaurant, it's the restaurant that's afraid. Also Doom boss music starts playing for some reason...

    Eating vast amounts of beef and Yorkshire puddings, at Sunday roasts in Morcambe.
    Talking out of both sides of his mouth which, if you think of it, is really amazing.
    Running to Australia to fight a literal nobody instead of unifying the HW belts in London or
    Saudi.

    It's just that Fury always finds some way to win.

    Fury is a handful against any heavyweight H2H historically it's a shame we live in a world where a loss is the end of the world

    Probably why he's desperate not to fight Usyk then.

    Had a laugh earlier when Whigfield claimed he had power in both hands, that was funny.

    He is mentally strong as Ali which is the highest level possible and that alone is the greatest attribute and compliment that can be given.

    His mental strength is so strong that is makes up for him being droppable because every time this man has gone down he has got back up and said "You've dropped me embarrassed me in front of all these people I'm going to kill you stone dead now" then got stronger.

    Ring IQ is the stand out single attribute for me. When he first turned pro he really wasn't very impressive as the McDermott fight showed but he just kept on improving. If you watch his early fights and compare him to the fighter he was vs a Wlad and Wilder he's made huge improvements and changes to his style. The fact he was able to pick up the Kronk style from Sugar Hill so quickly and execute it so well with only several weeks of preparation says a lot about his ring IQ.

    Even if he were to lose a fight, I think he'd come back even better in the rematch and would have figured out a way to do better if not beat his opponent second time around.
