He has no following and never will. He's dogshit to watch.
But then his cousin isn't much more exciting but seems to have generated a mythical fan base.... His two highest profile wins were absolute stinkers.
Tyson Fury has way more charisma than 'Shades Of Ali' & it's that charisma that transcends.

Hughie did nothing against Parker.

as dull as Scrap-iron Johnson

he is no where near fighting a Joshua.

I think Sam Sexton will give him a much harder fight at british level than most people think

British boxing is largely seen as in a pretty good place at the minute. It says a lot about how little people think of Hughie that a home town, unbeaten Fury v an unbeaten world champion did about a quarter of the business that Okolie Chamberlain did. You can't look at that and not question his prospects in terms of profile.

:lol:

he is a quiet lad but I like Hughie.
Imagine growing up alongside all singing, all dancing extrovert Tyson Fury. Everything he has ever done has been overshadowed.
Beat Sexton, get the Commonwealth and/or European then chase that WBA 'Regular' Title to get in the mix.
I hope the team of Hughie, Peter and Mick can get to the World Title scene again...
He's a talented lad for sure. He'll definitely come again. He must've been kicking himself after the Parker fight because he didn't leave it all in the ring. Has to commit more.
He pretty much didnt leave anything in the ring. He did virtually nothing.

I think its hard to change fighters with that sort of mindset.

Fair enough. Both fighters looked dogshit.

True mate but he's young enough to change it up if he is given the right advice and takes it on board. See how he looks against Sexton. I'd like to see him approach that fight with a bit of spite and look to try and take Sexton out. A 12 round bore decision win isn't gonna win him any more fans.
