Hughie Fury and how he fares in the HW division

He does well against boxers who don't bring the pressure style.

 

He is young he can improve. He should get with an offensive minded trainer like Freddie Roach.

Although I think there will be too much ego in camp Fury for that to happen.

 

They can carefully pick his next opponent to ensure a win and he can struggle along in the lower top 10 for a while, but I don't see him ever progressing higher than that

He is certainly not a threat to anyone of the top five or six heavyweights. And probably never will be

Tyson and Hughie both have very low one shot knock out power I guess punching power is not in their family genetics.


I think Huey is a average skilled boxer with a decent hand speed and movement, but no aggression or killer instinct; and as has been said, no punching power to speak of

 

Not being able to punch is a bit of a draw back

 

not entirely sure why he got a HW title shot to be honest. why has not had to work his way up tha ladder with british/euro first.


this guy wants to be the new klitshko. klitchko could at least punch.

 

he should join Tyson Fury in retirement, imo.

 

Tyson could punch a bit. He had natural heavy handedness and knew how to sit down on shots. Mean streak as well. Hughie seems scared to death of sitting down on anything for fear he falls off his bicycle. Maybe the loss will help him to open up a bit more, but he seems to lack that fire that propelled Tyson to the top IMO. I doubt he'll ever be anything more than a points scorer, a sort of awkward guy that prospects might be put in with now and again to test the waters but most likely ignored.

 

Domestic level talent.

At this point, it seems sure that his balls will never drop.

 

dirmenako the guy parker ko would be good come back fight for hughie

Fury definitely has skills. Very good footwork and quick jab.

But he can't seriously expect to win a world title without properly engaging the opponent.

While I think the cards were a little wide on Saturday i'm pleased they sent a message that running away and flicking a jab out does not get you scoring points.

Back to the drawing board for Hughie.

 

If Hughie knocked down Parker five times before sparking him out cold, he wouldn't get much credit on here, don't forget that. Sure most just want to focus on his lack of power, rather than give all his other attributes the credit they deserve.

The kid is going to naturally get bigger and stronger over the next few years, not to mention improve his offense with more training camps. He lack of credit for his performance in completely nullifying Parker is shocking, but not surprising. He's got a very bright future, he will be champ one day and even at 23, he's a nightmare opponent for anyone.

 

Hughie has great footwork but no power at all. He just not have the size of Tyson Fury. Tyson Fury needs to get in shape and get back into the ring. It is his only escape from drugs.

 

Should fight Toney for the WBF Title

 

If he even threw two or three right hands a round Hugh would have won. They wouldn't have been knockout punches but landed clean it would have been enough to get the win.
