Andy Ruiz Jr. makes his pick among Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk
Most folks believe that Tyson Fury has a clear advantage over Usyk, in regards to Fury’s height, weight, and long reach. Ruiz holds a similar opinion. The heavyweight fighter has picked Tyson Fury as his favorite for the early predictions. He said, “I think for me in my eyes, Tyson Fury could win. He has more skills, more ability. I don’t think Usyk knows how to pressure, throw those combinations. Get close to him, smother him, rabbit punches, all that. But if I fight him, I’m going to be able to do that. A lot of people don’t realize when you fight… when tall guys fight shorter guys, it’s hard. Especially when they move around, it’s hard to hit them, especially they leave themselves open.”
