Fuzzy guarding isn't reacting to something. Reacting to it would be holding low, and then blocking high when they see the overhead coming. Fuzzying is holding low for a set number of frames, and then holding high after that set number to control for a mixup with a large frame distance.

Reacting to something is completely different because reacting is not vulnerable to simply delaying the quicker moves. To react you wouldn't have to commit yourself to changing your block after a certain set number of frames, you would just block against the quicker option, and react to the slower option.
Thanks for the explanation.

With that being said: You can both react and fuzzy guard :)
