Hughie Fury Comeback Date Announced

Post by oogiebe »

Hughie is actually going to fight again...

Reports say that Hughie will be back in the ring next month against a not yet named opponent close to his home in Manchester.

I'm sure it'll be against a lowly opponent guaranteeing Fury an easy win as he gets his career back on track. The fight will be broadcast live on UK channel 5.

Good to see Mick come out of hibernation for his one tv show date of the year

Guy is 24 years old.

He’s fought for a world title already, WBO obviously move boxers to mandtatory position as long as they win a WBO regional belt (like Yarde)..

He’s fought Pulev. Unfortunately I do the the cut early on changed the course of the fight. Not saying Fury would have won but after the cut he changed his style a little bit.

He could just spend the next few years fighting top 15-25 guys.. still some decent names there for him.

I'm sorry I don't see Fury as ever being able to be a world level fighter.
The scoring on the Parker fight was a joke. He looked like crap
Pulev won 9 or 10 rounds against him. He's just not that good.
I'd comfortably pick nearly all true top 20 fighters to easily beat him.
Just my opinion but I just don't think he'll ever be anything special

If Fury isn't genuine world class, with the state of the division today I couldn't name 20 fighters who would beat him, even 10 is a push!
Off the top of my head, AJ, Fury, Wilder, Pulev, Miller, Ortoz, Povetkin, Whyte, Parker, Usyk who more? Breazdale, Chisora, Dubois, Martin, Helinus, Joyce, Ruiz?

Yeah, Fury hasn't shown he's capable of world level, and I suspect this upcoming fight won't help.

I actually rate him.
With time and the motivation to train and improve, I think Huggie has the potential to be in and around the B level at HW.

Depends on what you think "B" level means. I don't rate him so high at all. He's don't nothing to prove himself, IMHO.

With the right team, matchmaking, and motivation- he has the potential to be decent by the time he is in his late 20's.
Someone needs to put "the dog" in him.

Thanks to Kash Ali there will probably be a vacant BBBofC Central Area title for him to fight for soon!

Not only boring, just not that good.
They say defense wins fights. But don't you have to throw and land punches?
I'd rather watch paint dry than Hughie.
He makes Tyson Fury look like a ball of energy

I've never got over his Dad's claims that he was going to be the youngest ever World heavyweight champion. :doh:

I remember Tyson doing a hype job for Hughie when he was on his way up.

"If ye think arm gud, weyt til ye see me cuzin....iz evin beta".

Something along those lines anyway :D
