I don't know, but Kevin Barry, Joseph parkers trainer said mid 2016 they are going to fight a European who is 6'7" and currently 18 and 0. Hugh fury fits that bill.
AJ. Hughie is still only 21, however. While he should step up class a bit he still needs some more tests and styles.
Hughie Fury is way too fast for Joshua. Hughie UD or late stoppage is the only possible outcome for this fight.
His dad Peter Fury just tweeted this @hughiefury fights a well world rated guy Feb. Should get a little mention somewhere lol.
Hughie is very raw but you can see he is improving rapidly. He moves better than Joshua, that is one department he edges him.
So does Matteo Modugno http://boxrec.com/boxer/531388 No way the Fury's would take AJ or Parker. Hughie's too young and hasn't developed power yet

Hugh fury fits that bill. Correction: Kevin Barry said he had someone lined up as BACKUP that was 6ft 7 and 18-0 if the April opponent doesn't sign. All rumours are that Ustinov is the 1st choice to travel to NZ (apparently he is after a Kiwi girl). So given that the Fury's would be very silly exposing Hughie to Joseph, Matteo would be the backup.
Well I wont debate what Barry did or didn't say. It's on TV/video and I can't be bothered looking it up. I would love it if parker, aj, fury etc all tested themselves against each other sooner rather than later. They are the future and no reason they can't fight each other three or four times over their career. Get some old school grudge matches going. Who cares about the record. Props to aj taking on Whyte. Props to Hughie if he is stepping up in Feb. Parker and his stable mate have another two or three bums lined up each.
