If they fought 100 times, Fury would win 100 times. The issue is, unlike Ruiz, this guy is actually a bum. Not going to bother waking up to watch this, YouTube highlights in the morning will suffice.

Even though it was a showcase fight Fury showed why he is the king.

Brilliant feints, an educated jab, switch hitting and the most ridiculous head movement from a HW since Ali.

How can a 6'9" man who isn't even in great shape be so elusive and agile?

He is truly a freak of nature.

Just watched the fight. Looked fantastic but Schwarz really isn't that much better than Pianeta. I hope his next fight is someone who isn't a complete pubber... Pulev would be nice.

Boxed his face off for two rounds.

Class performance.

Best heavyweight boxer in the world.

all day. truly unique physique. seems to have a perma spare tire. fast hands. creates those odd angles AROUND the defense.

Bringing class boxing back to HW. Props to the Gypsy King.

He's a cokehead who fluctuates between obesity and just a fat shithouse while suffering from depression who also has the speed, reflexes and agility of a middleweight and the boxing pedigree of an Olympic champion.

It would be a very tough fight. Schwarz is a complete bum and both Joshua and Wilder would probably knock him out even faster than Fury. Pretty much everyone in the top 10 would knock this guy within 5 rounds.

It was an entertaining event and Fury was slick and all, but this level of opposition is several classes below a Ruiz and even a Breazeale so we haven't learned anything from this performance, imo.

As for Joshua, i think Fury would box his head off, but Joshua is still top class offensively and against someone who isn't likely to test his suspect chin, i wouldn't be shocked if he found a knockout in 12 rounds. And remember, Fury isn't invincible... Even though he won vs Wilder many refs would've stopped that fight after that last knockdown, and he's also been down to the likes of Cunningham.

Joshua would be gassed by the 6th round and Fury would pick him apart. I have no clue why you said you wouldn't be shocked if Joshua found a knockout in 12 rounds, that implies Fury's stamina would wane as the fight goes on when it's the opposite.

AJ is the one with conditioning issues and his chances of a KO diminish by the round especially against Tyson.

Joshua also doesn't have near the same level of power that Wilder does, he's doesn't typically put people out with one shot so his puncher's chance is minuscule.

I know we didn't learn anything from Fury beating this pubber, I said it was a showcase fight.

But we learned a lot from Joshua losing to Ruiz and even before that I said Fury would school Joshua comfortably. It's only become more evident in light of Joshua being taught a lesson Ruiz.

Also you're kidding yourself if you don't think Fury would test Joshua's chin. With his accuracy and the frequency he'd be landing Joshua would most definitely break.

Anyway this is all irrelevant at the moment, Joshua has to concentrate on not getting knocked out by Ruiz again.

Fury would play with AJ like a fiddle, just as he did with Klitchko. Fury's only opponent is Wilder atm. Him and Wilder are head and shoulders above the rest.
