The heavyweight sensation, Andy Ruiz Jr., has stayed out of action for over 13 months now. His last outing was against the Brit legend Anthony Joshua, wherein he suffered a unanimous decision of defeat and lost all his hard-earned heavyweight titles. But, the 31-year-old has left the past behind and is supremely focused on his future.

He is eyeing a resilient comeback and wishes to reclaim his belts. The ‘Destroyer’ also has a few opponents in his mind, whom he’s willing to box against.

Talking to The Fighter’s Voice, the Mexican-American said, “I would like to fight Tyson Fury because that is the only belt that I’m missing on my wall so I would love to fight Tyson Fury.”

“There’s not just one that I would wanna fight. I would actually wanna fight with [who] the people would want me to fight.”

In the 2019 summer, Ruiz Jr. beat Joshua and claimed his WBA, WBO, and the IBF heavyweight titles. Hence, it is logical that the WBC belt would be the one he cherishes.

In order to win that, he would have to return, secure a few wins and possibly earn a mandatory spot. However, he could be away from the ring for at least another 11 months.

Will we get to see Tyson Fury vs Andy Ruiz Jr.?

Tyson Fury has cosmic plans of fighting for the undisputed heavyweight title. On the flip side, the ‘Destroyer’ hasn’t competed for a long time and has developed ring rust. Even if he bags a 12-round bout against the ‘Gypsy King’, he may not be able to leave with the WBC belt in his hands.

Citing Fury’s plans, he may not have the time to accommodate ‘Destroyer’ in 2021. The division will be on hold as Fury and Joshua battle to become undisputed and hence, Ruiz Jr taking some time off may help him be in optimal shape to go on a run for the belts once the dust settles.

It will be interesting to see who Andy Ruiz Jr. really takes on in his return fight.
