Hughie is too young and inexperienced for this. It's not fair at this stage. Hughie still has acne problems!

Hughie hasn't been well - liver problems

Hence the acne

Can't be at 100%

Still think Joshua would get the ko though

Joshua gets the KO IMO, but I'm intrigued to see how his build carries him in the later rounds. Looks too bulked up for my liking, would be very interested to see him in against someone with a chin to see how his stamina holds up.

Knockover jobs are teaching him nothing. Give Fury a couple of years to find his man strength and this could be a good fight.

I don't think Hughie Fury can defeat David Price at any point of his career

To be fair to Joshua, I think he is naturally very muscled.

Agree that the knockover jobs are pointless. Also, he still seems quite stiff/rigid in the ring as opposed to loose and relaxed. Not sure Tony Simms is making the best of what he has to work with in Joshua....

From listening to Joshua and watching his recent fights I think he is aware and improving on this aspect.

I don't think Anthony Joshua would knock him out at this particular point, I think if the fight were to happen tomorrow that Joshua would win via UD. If this fight happens 2 years from now I think Hughie Fury gets knocked out.

if they fought each other in their next fight, say over 8 rounds with suitable notice, Fury would beat Joshua on point for my money....BUT, the fight won't be happening.

Rossi is right.
Hughie's taking a bit of time off to sort this viral problem out.
He'll come back fresher and stronger.

He's finally getting some proper care.
The guys at the Institute in Sheffield are doing great things.

Could be a number of things; hope he gets it's sorted.

I remember when they finally correctly diagnosed tennis phenom Novak Djokovic as gluten intolerant. Even with the condition he was consistently in the top 5 but once he sorted his diet out he went on an absolute tear, unbeaten in over 50 matches and soared to no.1 and stayed there for a long period.

Brave prediction.
Based on what exactly ?
No one knows is the correct answer.

I honestly believe that Fury has been treating all of his fights like spars. He has been learning his trade without the weight of an Olympic gold medal on his back. Both are cracking boxers but I honestly think Fury has the edge in skill and once they meet in a few years, once Fury has grown into a man, he will have a little bit too much nouse for Joshua.
