Because you can build him like fighter, his ult can be use as initiating tool, he has double gap closer, and has high sustain damage.

You can build him like ap(which most player do) and will get the burst damage instead of tankiness, just like other fighter, most of them can actually build ap for burst damage(like Jax, Skarner, Malphite etc) but their overall damage won't be enough to kill enemy in 1 combo and they just don't have many gap closer like assassin so they're not tagged assassin like Fizz.
