    Hughie is much better than Tyson & Joshua at his age.


    5 years when he's grown natural man strength he's going to be a Ko artist.

    He's technically better than Tyson & Joshua.

    at this point yes because Joshua is 5 years older and a man, when hughie is developed more he would take joshua to school

    id only give joshua a slight advantage against hughie now though anyway

    I think a couple of people probably had to stifle the urge to write that Usyk will beat all of them.

    Joshua has a shaky chin. Amateurs are proof and he got some nice gifts. Also a very basic but strong fighter compared to hughie who is just 20. Big HWs tend not to hit their prime this early.

    Hughie Fury isn't a puncher and never will be. In a couple of years from now he will probably be a journeyman rather than a prospect. I hope I'm wrong but lets see....

    Tyson will be the same to I predict.

    Every now and then I open a thread on this forum and actually find someone who actually knows what they are talking about! Its rare though but its very refreshing!

    Hughie fury has bags and bags of talent! He moves so well for a big guy and is so clever in there. He's constantly learning and having to use his intelligence to win fights. The reason why the common fan won't like him is because he's not banging everyone out in 3 rounds like some other prospects we know.

    Trust me when I say this... As long a hughie fury stays focussed and in shape he beats Joshua, wilder, stiverne etc etc

    He's the more gifted fury. That's for sure. It's a shame he got ill though as it really dented him

    Do your research, he was an accomplished amateur and is now in one of the best heavyweight camps around. He just beat a guy better than Browne did who is top 15 and Hughie is 20 AND coming back from a long sickness layoff.

    If everyones was judged on where they were from you would be f****d pal.

    For me Parker or Joshua are the best at the moment, followed by Hughie.. Would you agree with that IB? :think You don't seem do be a big fan of the Fury clan though :lol:

    He's already beaten one of the top super-heavyweights and KOs aren't the only way to win a boxing match.

    Plus, he hits harder than Chris Byrd so Usyk has enough power to get the job done.

    We are talking just prospects? Defined as, what, under 20 matches and obviously not yet gone for a title?

    I'd say



    1. Joshua
    2. Jennings (obviously about to cease to be a prospect by the above definitions, but still one for now)
    3. Glazkov
    4. Parker
    5. Szpilka (especially now he's linked up with Shields, may climb even higher)
    6. Rivas
    7. Hughie
    8. Breazeale
    9. Washington
    10. Rekowski
    11. Dong
    12. Teper
    13. Fujimoto
    14. Muralimov
    15. Csala


    So he's up there, top half of my top 15 but it must be said the field is pretty weak.
