    It feels like 500 years since we last saw him compete. Do you think he’s secretly gave up the sport of boxing?

    Who could possibly want to see him box again. He’s Okolie level dull for me.

    He will be 3 years out of the ring by this October.

    Not sure if he was caught putting some extra sugar on his cornflakes, or this is just a matter of injuries and lack of motivation.

    But he won’t be missed. I can’t think of ever being entertained by him.

    Gave Parker a good run for the Joey 12 Title for the most boring fighters ever seen in a ring.

    Made history becoming the youngest heavyweight skirt wearer ever.

    Again with the silent ban. Where has this come from and why would any tester or board let Hughie Fury serve a secret ban?

    Failed tests don't mean anything in boxing.

    He'll come back this year, lose in a snooze fest against a top 15 guy, say he was injured and isn't 100% yet, Peter will say 'he's only 35 he's still a baby, when he's 100% he'll be a champion' and he won't see him again for 3 years.

    Just wait until he gets his man strength. Then you’ll see.

    Once you've boxed like Ali, what more is there to accomplish?

    I never got the impression he liked Boxing. He just did it by the numbers. Let's face it, he got a pretty easy living. He probably made enough dough to buy some property or start a business.

    Hughie is a nice guy, but I do hope we never see him fighting again

    He’s done - he was never world class and stunk out the place every single time he fought. Potentially one of the most boring heavyweights (from a fighting perspective) I’ve ever seen if I’m honest. Still a durable and brave dude, I hope he gets better soon and overcomes his health challenges.
