Sure, I can fix that.
Andy Ruiz Jr defeated AJ, acknowledged by a considerable majority to be The Man, given he had all but one belt, was undefeated, gave Wlad his fair shot at getting his crown back (something Fury did NOT have “the mettle” to accomplish), and was the biggest draw by a large distance.
That makes Andy The Man. He has accomplished what Wilder and Fury and AJ have not, taken one of their 0s. Fury preferred fighting Shwortz to rematching Wilder. Wilder chose Breazeale rather than accept a huge payday v AJ.
Andy Ruiz Jr is The King of Boxing. He also happens to be fat.

Fury weighed in at 263+LBS. 7 lbs heavier than when he fought Wilder.

That’s fine for him. He can move just as good at any weight tbh. It’s his usual weight.

He was 256.5 for Wilder and 247 vs Wlad. He's all over the board during his career. He looks soft here though. He has that back fat he didn't have in the last two fights. I hope he gets a bit of a scare here.

His weight has never been a issue though.

Look at who he's fought? Other than Wlad and Wilder they are mostly stiffs.

He’s fought more decent names.
He probably weight around 255lbs against Joshua.
I don’t think his body will let him lose too much after he put on 100 pounds.

I just checked the Sky guide.
This fight is a PPV in NZ. $35
Needless to say, I don't be buying it.
Bit cheeky if you ask me.
Lowly opponent for a bogus belt fight. Yeah, pull the other one.
What mug is going to buy this fight?
Vote with your wallets, don't buy it and send a clear message that we will not accept this sort of crap any more.

Won’t hurt my feelings if a wild haymaker finds its mark and floors picker lips.

Schwarz throws round shots. He's an aggressive finisher, but I can't really imagine him ever getting to Fury to hurt him in the first place with his crude, looping shots.
Fury should win comfortably here.

You are most undoubtedly right. I just would like a scary moment or two to humble the "dosser."

7lbs over the wilder weight tells me he trained, but he didn’t, you know
Traaaaiiiin.
Probably doesn’t think he needs to kill himself to fight Tom Schwarz and he is prob not wrong about that.

I'm curious what he'll weigh at the official weigh in. This was the morning weigh-in, or something like that.

Wasn’t that the official weigh in? I thought they usually weigh in around 1pm local time?

No, it wasn't official. I think they did that for more press.
