    Fury would have outjabbed Mercder and Bruno far easier than Lewis did, he didn`t land that many jabs on Bruno and kept fighting inside against Mercer who wouldn`t have landed a glove on Fury.

    Lewis beat Vitali on cuts, that was by far his toughest win, he was getting his ears boxeddoff in that one.

    I think Ruiz will give Fury a lot of trouble if he beats AJ in the rematch.

    Ruiz is massively overrated now, he would not give Fury any problems. I always said AJ is a poor man’s wlad, but still he’s much better than Ruiz and will beat him in rematch.

    Ruiz has the hand speed to match Fury.

    The body is stationary and Ruiz would be targeting Fury’s body.

    ruiz will beat him down, fury is easiest fight for ruiz out of the top 3. nobody agrees, but im calling it, and i dont often move all in.

    I hope ruiz beats them all , I can’t stand fury or AJ and like ruiz much better than wilder, but I don’t think it will happen.

    i dont know about beating them all, theyre all pretty well matched, given their incompleteness. but i see fury as the easy one for him. wilder is not as skilled as fury overall, but hes harder to approach, cause theres a higher penalty for approaching wrong. aj has a strategy and heart problem when facing ruiz, the strategy will be fixed, and i think he has heart, just needed some humbling for him to have to find it.
