    Whyte is definitely above Hughie Fury.

    RANKINGS
    Whyte is around 3rd or 4th out of the current UK HWs.

    Hughie Fury is around 7th or 8th. Although it is difficult to judge because he has completely avoided facing any of his domestic rivals despite never taking the step up to European or World level. Who really knows if he would beat Gorman, Joe Joyce or Chisora?

    IN THE RING
    Hughie Fury doesnt have the power or nastiness to be a threat to Whyte if they ever fought. It would be a comfortable UD win for Whyte

    Both ballsy fighters, I think we'll see them being matched sooner than you think. It would be a terrible fight to watch though.

    I also agree on that but Whyte has found his level and DDD hasn't even scratched the surface.
    If they fought next who would you back? Very good prospective fight imo.

    Gorman beats Chisora at this point much younger more hungar and much fresher might not be a barnstorming fight but imo Gorman wins.

    Tbh I don’t really know. Whyte could chin him tbh it’s not like Dubois has proven beyond all doubt he’d win. Be a good scrap but let’s let Dubois work his way is the rankings before throwing him in with the whytes of the world

    He'd still beat Hughie, who hasn't really improved in the last 4-5 years much at all

    Think Whyte would still beat "YOOOEY" not sure I would want to watch it though.

    Hughies stock definitely went up after whyte got stopped.

    he’s so frustrating to watch sometimes but if he worked on power and offence he could be champ still one day
