    Bad Move for Hughie, unless it's top money. Bulgaria is a corrupt country. He aint stopping him, and he has no chance on the cards no matter what happens.

    This will likely be so so so so boring. But it's a good matchup in the sense of rankings etc

    PULEV DA KING COMING FOR AJ

    Really bad style match up for the fan, I got Hughie Fury bearing Pulev comfortably. He has the better jab, the faster feet at this stage.

    "Bulgaria continues to be the most corrupt country in the EU, similarly to the previous years, in the latest 2017 Corruption Perceptions Index of Transparency International. Bulgaria still improved its score by 2 pts y/y to 43 in 2017 and rose by 4 places y/y in the overall world ranking to 71st place. The slight improvements might be due to the government’s efforts to introduce a new anti-corruption law, in our view. On the other hand, we think the effectiveness of the new law and the active fight against corruption remain unconvincing. The high level of corruption in Bulgaria continues to be considered as one of the main impediments to the attraction of higher foreign investments, in our view."

    I hope you're right and Hughie doesn't get robbed, I think he has a style that could trouble this faded version of Pulev. Hughie scores a UD if there's no funny business.

    Props to Hughie Fury for having the courage to take on an opponent that "Big Baby" Miller was afraid of.

    Sounds like a matchroom card then.

    I do like Hughie and I feel that he can pull of the upset. His movement will give Pulev nightmares as long as he can get past Pulevs jab.

    Hughie might stop Pulev!
    He's getting old.

    IBF will have neutral judges.
    Just like the WBO had two United States judges and one U.K. judge for the Parker-Fury card.
