Andy Ruiz Jr. Not Impressed With Anthony Joshua’s Last Performance, Favors Fury to Win

The potential matchup between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua has split the boxing universe into two halves. Several boxers have taken their sides to the debate and former champion Andy Ruiz Jr. hasn’t failed to dive in. He connected with Little Giant Boxing to shed opinion on the matchup and thrilled several fans with his clear response.

‘The Destroyer’ has analyzed both the current heavyweight champions, billing his favor towards the WBC titleholder, Tyson Fury. Moreover, the Mexican has ridiculed Anthony Joshua’s recent KO win against Kubrat Pulev, citing an advantage for ‘The Gypsy King’ in the title unification clash.

Andy Ruiz Jr. said, “Tyson Fury has a real style, he is tall, he fights… I kinda see Tyson Fury winning that fight. I wasn’t too impressed with Anthony Joshua’s last performance, but he got the job done. I think maybe Tyson Fury might get him… Anthony hasn’t fought anybody that boxes and moves around, so we’ll see about that.”

Anthony Joshua vs Andy Ruiz Jr. 1 – A blueprint for Tyson Fury

Despite being the early aggressor against Andy Ruiz Jr, Joshua fell victim to his sleek combinations. So, Tyson Fury’s movement can be a serious threat to the unified champion. Meanwhile, Fury is also massive and can control the range, turning himself even more treacherous inside the squared circle.

If he uses the same strategy that saw Ruiz Jr. become the champion, Tyson Fury will clearly control the odds. But, he needs to be cautious as Joshua has knockout power and in boxing, one punch is all it takes. Thus, Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua will be alluring for all the obvious reasons.

The former champion, Andy Ruiz Jr., can also take some notes of the fight because he is a relevant contender in the title ride and can face any of the two men in the future.
