    IMO, awful idea for Andy. He would get beat the F up. Yea he beat Joshua who was much bigger, but Joshua isnt the boxer Fury is. Ruiz would lose and lose terribly. Thoughts?

    Bad matchup for Andy. I’d like to see him drop some weight and get into better shape before taking on any big guys. Maybe get a fight with Usyk if one can be made but mainly, he needs to get into shape. The man is dangerously fat and too small to carry that much weight.

    Fury came in heavy but proved (to my surprise) he could move and use the weight to his advantage. Andy is a different fighter and can’t carry that much weight.

    He's just too short for someone like Fury. He KO'd AJ but AJ literally went down to his level to try to finish him. Fury's bread and butter is leaning back like Ali. That's a nightmare for Ruiz.

    Fury would literally toy with him and win an easy UD.

    Many have said this since the AJ win. HE HAS ZERO CHANCE AGAINST Fury. Absolutely terrible matchup for Ruiz. AJ boxed circles around him Fury would box the Olympic Rings around Ruiz.

    Fury is the worst match up in the entire division for Ruiz. This does not end well for Andy. The thing is, Fury would be smart to take this as a voluntary defense because a win over Ruiz who was once a unified title holder looks great on a resume in time.

    Only chance Ruiz has off pulling off a Wallin if Fury comes in relaxed and unmotivated by a challenge. Fury is a big match fighter who wants that big challenge in order to have a purpose in life

    What Ruiz wants and what he will get are not necessarily the same thing. A shutout loss to Joshua does not win him a shot at the #1 HW Mr. Fury.

    Fury would do exactly what Joshua did to him and make him look even worse.

    I also think this is stylistically nightmare for Ruiz. Tho Ruiz is doing a good job in the clinches, he explode there very fast, very powerful.
    In order for Ruiz to even have a chance, he need to improve greatly, need his footwork to be a lot better and to cut ring way better, as well as to come in superb form that we did not see to till this.
    So Ruiz chances are pretty slim. :D Tho if he can do damage on the inside and in the clinches, the question for Fury will be to stay out of them, but does he have the cardio to stay not only on his backfoot for the whole match, but also throw more than he is used to. Again this is in the theory where Ruiz come in super improved in superb form.

    But this will be a good fight to be made, and its time for both Fury and Wilder to stepping up.
    Parker, Whyte, Ruiz, AJ, Usyk, Dubois are great matches to be made between this guys.
    So far only AJ is willing to find most of the top HW.
