Does anyone actually think Andy Ruiz has a legitimate shot at beating Fury?

    Fury is such a loon that he just may literally perform that feat.

    He has the fastest hands in the heavyweight division. Thay could bill this one as:
    Greedy Belly vs Big Belly.

    They waddle up to the center of the ring, but neither has the reach to bridge the gap which is the space caused by the two ample bellies meeting front to front.

    They flay their arms trying to overcome the belly-to-belly distance but it's too vast.

    Fight ends in a draw.

    Rematch ordered. Months of social media bickering follow.

    Greedy Belly v Burrito Belly

    Fury would grind his face to mincemeat, I'd say, and take very little in return. UD or some kind of attrition stoppage. But if Fury is angry, could KO him properly.

    Ruiz Jr struggled with grandpa Ortiz until he inevitably gassed due to his age.

    It would be a very easy fight for Fury.

    If it was an all you can eat buffet eating contest, then it would be 50/50 fight.

    Not much of a chance for Ruiz, but if he sprung a surprise that would be pretty funny!

    Miracles can happen. But apart from that, Fury via UD or late TKO.

    Kind of like Dillian Whyte, decent enough fighter but almost zero chance of beating Fury.

    Fury has a chance at the buffet, but I cannot favor him.
    In a fight it is hard to find a plausible enough scenario to think Ruiz is at all likely to win.

    Fury is done and he knows it imo. Today several fighters might win against him (Ruiz, Usyk, Wilder IV and Joyce).

    Few minutes ago I read according to Warren he could retire vacating the belt. I hope that. People are tired of his clowneries.

    If Fury were to retire, his career would be one big waste of time and a bigger waste of talent. He's still young and I'd like to see him fight AJ, Usyk and Joyce. These fights can be made inside of the next 2 years. 1 year if he is a true gypsy king.

    If?

    He always fights on the outside unless he's forced to trade a bit inside, and even then he quickly gets back out of range and works on his jab/one two down the pipe.

    But I do agree Fury works his easy to an easy UD win.
