It's quite clear that he has a future in this sport and should not retire.

And if you weren't entertained, then I don't give a f*ck that you weren't entertained. Some people can appreciate boxers who stick and move. Not all of us are drunk casuals who only like brawlers.
I don't hate Fury. I just don't think he's very good. To call folks who don't like him "drunk casuals who only like brawlers" is just nonsense. I love a good ring technician, but Hughie isn't that. While I don't think he should retire, I also don't think he'll ever be good enough to be a serious threat for a world title.

Hughie won't attack hard and move; he just taps and moves. When he did connect on Fatso Fissoli, he was able to stop Fatso's forward rushes.

its simple

hughie is awful to watch and has a negative style most fans hate
he lost to both worldish level guys he faced in very negative showings
aside from that he hasnt really beaten anyone very good
despite turning pro young there has been no really clear sign of improvement or change


hard to really be much of a fan of this type of guy. he also got done for drugs of course. hes a so so guy within the top 20-25 who sucks to watch. thats about it.. hed shutout the likes of dave allen but not doing much at the higher levels
