Hughie Fury fighting Andy Ruiz Jr.

[El Kabong]

This is a massive test and a big jump in class. Strange management from Fury's team.

Indeed....I guess they think Ruiz is the weakest guy with the best record they could add to Fury's resume.

Theyve tried better names than this for Hughie.

Ruiz just doesnt really have much else going on.

It will be an interesting fight. Ruiz has good combinations and is one of the most skilled (although clearly lazy) american heavies but I dont think he will get too close to Hughie.

Have they?

Ruiz's career IS in a bit of a plateau

Ruiz is actually Mexican as far as I can tell, born in Mexico at the least...wouldn't want America taking credit for a Mexican fighter.

IF this fight comes off and Ruiz lands anything clean he'll win
