Re: Boxing Mysteries-"Jesse" James Hughes (1995)
I still remember Jesse James Hughes.
Very Exciting and Charismatic individual.
Gone Way too soon. R.i.P.
Had basically no amateur carear, if i remember correctly, so he was essentially learning as he went along as a pro.
Went the distance with Buddy McGirt. I knew Hughes was Very Tough for pulling that off.
His wins over Stephans and Stone were particularly impressive.
Hughes probably would've fought until the age of Around 34-35 I'm guessing/estimating.
He was mostly a Brawler type, so very unlikely he was going to have one of them Really Extended type of Boxing Carears.
I'd say that he was overall in that lower B level category. He went from a lower "C level" to a Lower "B grade level".
He might've eventually reached a mid range B Grade level, or possibly even an upper B grade level, at least briefly.
Hughes would've had some more very exciting bouts I think.
Hard to say who he was very comparable to, in the Boxing Ring, style-wise.
Definitely was an old school Action Brawler though. Very Gritty and Resilient.
