Sparring a strong guy isn't the same as sparring a powerful guy though.
If you say he was powerful then I'm sure he was, but as a rule I've found great big strong guys a doddle to move around with.

He looks like he's done some boxing before he did the body building? Some nice moves Eric.

Stunk the joint out in the sparring session as well

Let's not forget that fury klitschko was the most boring title fight in history. Fury came in to take no chances and fight off the back foot all night.

The same tactics won't work for Hughie, whose personality makes David Blaine look like a prime Muhammad Ali. Nobody cares about a boring boxer with zero personality,even if he's got a title. Look at rigondeaux for example, who is furlongs clear of Hughie on ability.

was extreemly powerful, one time he hooked me, my head moved , and my brain mover further, :)
had to stop for about 20 secs each time I got caught with a good head shot, it hurt, lucky my recovery is very good, just need head to clear.
