If you are playing AD Fizz, on my opinion you should build him off-tanky, otherwise there is no reason to use it over AP Fizz... AD Fizz main points over AP Fizz are:

1) Tankiness: AD Fizz can afford to build tanky and still do lots of damage due to his W doing damage based on the enemy's missing health. Once you buy a Blade of the Ruined King, you will kill squishy targets easily. You can choose to build tanky or to do more damage items, but don't buy too many damage items. This tankiness also means that Fizz will not die easily if focused by the enemy team if it tries to dive and kill their ADC. In fact, AD Fizz can do that easily and still survive, another point he has over AP Fizz.

2) DPS: Unlike AP Fizz, which is about burst, AD Fizz has DPS. This lets him take out tanky oponents easier.

3) Sustain: AD Fizz build sustain items which combined with tanky items, let him survive much easier.

4) Initiation: AD Fizz can use his ultimate to initiate teamfights. AP Fizz cannot afford to do that because he will lose a major part of his burst, and he is also squishier.
