Andy Ruiz Jr is the only fighter that “has the balls” to step into the ring with Deontay Wilder , according to John Fury. The father of Tyson Fury feels as though the Mexican is the only option for Wilder’s team as an initial agreement with Anthony Joshua may collapse. Wilder and Joshua were meant to fight in December, but it’s now looking less likely to take place due to complications with finalising a deal to host the event in Saudi Arabia. Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn revealed that they were still waiting for a contract, but they may begin looking for a new venue and a new opponent altogether. Joshua has struggled ever since losing to Ruiz Jr and hasn’t looked the same since losing consecutive fights against Oleksandr Usyk. John Fury is certain that his son is the greatest boxer around, and Tyson remains the only fighter to knock out Wilder following their stunning trilogy series. But he also has respect for Ruiz Jr and has recommended the fight to Wilder’s team
