Ruiz Jr, once defeated Joshua courtesy of a seventh-round knockout but lost on a unanimous point decision in the rematch.

The Mexican-born American heavyweight once predicted that the Gypsy King would emerge victorious against his former challenger back in February.

"I think that it’s gonna be an interesting fight.

"I fought Anthony Joshua, I haven’t fought Tyson Fury. Tyson Fury has a real style, he’s tall, he fights tall.

"I kinda see Tyson Fury winning that fight. I wasn’t too impressed with Anthony Joshua’s last performance, but he got the job done.

"I think maybe Tyson Fury might get him, depends how awkward he is.

"If he boxes – Anthony hasn’t fought anybody that boxes around and moves around, so we’ll see."
