With that horrendous cut, Fury won pretty easily. I don't see why anyone would think differently of him than they did before.
Wallin's powder-puff punches couldn't finish Fury but a Kownacki, Martin, Miller or even Washington would have KTFO Fury on Saturday! Wallin was already gassing and punches had nothing on them by the time of the cut! This content is protected
Ruiz problem wpuld be his footspeed, or lack of. Its not difficult to close off AJ but I imagine Fury would be running all night vs Ruiz doing his land 3 jabs each round approach with ruiz constantly falling short.
Same type horrible cut like Vitali Klitschko had ... they stopped that fight ... even though most of the bleeding was under Vitali's eye but on Fury the blood was gushing into Fury's eye but they didn't stop it to save the Wilder Re-Match $$$!!!
Styles make fights. Ruiz doesn't have the footspeed. Not like he has a tremendous Joe Frazier, Antonio margarito type workrate to hunt fury down either. Is it so hard to comprehend that you can't make conclusions on how fury would look Vs short fat Ruiz based on a fight against a tall southpaw with a bad cut? Somebody tell me how Ruiz gets inside of Fury's reach and movement? Not happening unless he changes his entire lifestyle at 30 years old and loses 30lbs, doubles his footspeed and becomes a mexican Mike tyson
Problem is Fury always fights to the level of his opponent so (for me) the jury is still out on Ruiz and given Wilder couldn't put Fury's lights out Ruiz isn't. Ruiz's head will look like Wallins..
Fair enough. Not really Fury's fault. Now people need to make their mind up. Many say the Vitali fight shouldn't have been stopped, now saying the Fury one should. Then it would open the question, was it the punch or the clash of head that caused the cut. We know what the referee thought, but that would spark debate. All these things that open up debates. No matter what anyone does, always people trying to debunk it.
Ruiz would hit fresh air all night. Ruiz would have to work his fat little ass off to get past the jab and then Fury can just tie him up and lean on him. Fury isn't a stationary hulk like AJ. Styles make fights - Fury is all wrong for Ruiz
Fury would play with Ruiz and would absolutely destroy him mentally before the fight in the press conferences.
I have no idea why everyone is saying that Fury sucks now? If he didn't have that one cut early in the fight, this wouldn't even have been a fight. Fury handled Wallin pretty easily even with blood pouring into his eye all night. I don't even like Fury that much. This fight actually RAISED my stock in Fury.
