Hughie Fury Applies Pressure on Dave Allen For Agreement

Peter Fury, father and trainer of heavyweight contender Hughie Fury, says their team is not willing to wait beyond the end of Friday, to finalize a fight agreement with Dave Allen.

The two sides are at odds over the financial aspects. Hughie Fury is willing to take a smaller purse in order to make the deal cross over the line.

If they are unable to agree on the terms by the end of business on Friday, Peter Fury warns that a fight with Allen will never take place.

Peter Fury claims that Allen called out his son - but every time the contest is approached, he says Allen decides to go in another direction.

"Dave Allen, he offered Hughie out. He wanted it, so he did an interview at first, then Hughie responded and said: 'You haven't got to look too far, I'll accept it.' We got approached by our team and [they] said: 'He's looking for more money Dave, would Hughie take less, so Dave Allen can have more, so we agreed to do that, and now we're just hearing excuses," Peter Fury told Sky Sports.

"Maybe they can't go on this date, it's all cr-p to us that. We know all the negotiations in the background. Dave Allen has come up in the past, three times at least, to offer to box Hughie, and every time there's excuses. There's not going to be a fourth time. If we don't get confirmation on this by [Friday], Dave Allen will never ever share a ring with Hughie Fury, that's a promise."


According to Allen, he will gladly accept the fight if the money is right. He was not moved by the initial offer for the fight and is patiently waiting for an improved sum.

"I was offered the fight last week with an amount me and my team deemed not enough. Since then I personally have received no second offer and have been waiting to hear back some news on the fight chasing it up daily but no success yet," Allen said.

It keeps Fury in the mix, while Price can fight a non puncher leading to a bigger fight if he wins.
It's actually a good fight for Price, as Hughie couldn't knock the skin off a rice pudding.

Hughie seems to me to be a poor man's Henry Akinwande, and I suppose to some degree Allen is a poor man's Scott Welsh. Not very inspiring!

This post best be drenched in sarcasm otherwise you're either a Matchroom shill trying to drum up excitement for crap irrelevant fights or you're trolling the board.

Allens last fight looked as bent as a two bob note to me and I'd give both him and Darch an acting award for how it was done. Look out to see if he goes down easily in this one.

Unfortunately for Allen, Hughie is levels above him. I don't really rate either one but Allen is once again punching above his weight if this fight get's made, Hughie will outbox him on the backfoot for a lopsided decision win.

You got me on Hughie v Price being a megafight. That part was indeed sarcasm. Pretty sharp for a one eyed fella.

Hughie stops Allen.

I voted for a draw, as Allen will struggle to hit Hughie and Hughie won't be trying to hit Allen.

Then all you people who think this is even a remotely interesting fight can enjoy it ALL OVER AGAIN.
