    "The thing is I turned pro at 19 as a child and I was boxing men," said Fury.
    "The facts of the matter are I've never been a stand-still man and land big shots because I'm a slick boxer but as we've seen I've just knocked out the biggest puncher in boxing history.''
    "Andy Ruiz is not a big puncher but he knocked out Joshua so I'd say I am a big puncher and there are people who have sparred both of us and quite a few have said I'm the bigger puncher."
    How does Fury`s power really compare to AJ`s power?

    Would Fury be able to use that aggressive style to KO Ruiz in 7 rounds, like he did to Deontay?

    Anyone who doesn’t think AJ hits harder than Fury is deluded.

    Fury is a more defensive boxer. Joshua's style is for the stoppages. I don't think the bodybuilder's power is all that. Wlad was old, and stopped on his feet. Povetkin was old. Both Parker and Ruiz showed how destructive Anthony's power was, when he fought young prime contenders.

    Well it doesn't really matter who is the hardest puncher because that is just one element of many elements in winning a fight.

    AJ hits harder but Fury hits hard enough to stop AJ.

    Anyone who knows boxing will tell you that Joshua is the bigger puncher. I dunno. Maybe Fury thinks his rabid fans will believe what he's saying and just says it knowing it's false.

    AJ punches more correctly than Fury, his punch technique is better, a lot of Fury`s right hands were clumsy v Wilder not always landing cleanly.

    Depite his ability to slip shots I don`t think Fury actually knows a lot about boxing or boxing mechanics, what he does in the ring is all instinct.

    Can someone point to any young prime contender Joshua has knocked out legitimately?

    nah Ruiz is a genetic freak who cannot be knocked out just look how he easily soaked up joshua’s punches like They were ray’s of sunshine
