Hughie Fury best heavyweight prospect in the world?

He's a fantastic boxer(works good in the ams). He lacks power.
All HW's need power.

Like, Either Fury would walk through his attacks.

 

That ordering is off the cuff, not set in stone, but I'm pretty happy with it for a first-sketch impression.

Don't think I forgot anyone? (matching the outlined criteria anyway)

 

Doesn't have stamina issues and you know that, it is purely based on Bruno having them and Joshua being of a similar build to him. Any fighter could have chin issues, hes not rigid either, if you have actually seen any of his fights you will know this, and I assume you are basing your opinion on tuff you have seen some morons post in the past.

 

Based on what?

Beating a bunch of cab drivers? Say what you want about Tyson, but he routinely fights top 10 HWs and easily dispatches them.

 

Joshua, only boxer in olympics history to lose 3 fights and still get a gold medal

 

Any cruiserweights or light heavyweights you think can move up to heavyweight and be a significant force, besides Usyk?

 

Um...


Routinely? :blood

Has done once, maybe twice. The once being a rematch of a domestic rival he already beat early in their careers, the on-the-bubble one being a former Cruiser titlist with a 1-1 record at heavyweight (the win being over Jason freaking Gavern) though most did think he was robbed in the Adamek rematch.

 

Now compare his resume to Parker or Joshua, both guys who are around his age btw

 

He is the likeliest IMO.

Probably none of the champs at CW (although Huck did quite well versus Povetkin, albeit a shabby version of Povetkin, it must be remembered)

175 is quite a leap. There's nobody right now long enough and with enough power and punch resistance to imagine they would carry up that far. Maybe Kovalev, but I'm not sure. Ditto Gvozdyk & Mekhontsev.

 

Whyte,Joshua,Rivas,Fury(and Ruiz if he gets into shape,Usyk when he comes up) are the future. Parker not impressed but i guess its just me

 

Fair enough.. Don't think we can gauge him as well as the others, he's so young/green and really should still be fighting in the amateurs, in this day and age he's extremely young for a pro heavyweight, I guess that plays a role in how I rate him, along with his attributes. I think we'll have a better idea in 3 or maybe 4 years of what his ceiling really is.

:good

 

I had forgotten about Rivas, and some of the others. Might not rate Hughie above some of those guys YET, but I think he still has more room for improvement. So maybe just outside of the top 5 for me as well.

 

Yeah, I'm dying for Oscar to step up & step into the limelight.

 

Parkers jab is stronger than Cunningham's whole ****nal.

Fury has been hurt but much lesser opponents in his last 3 fights (prior to the Del Boy rematch).

It would be a good s****. The best way Fury can beat Parker is by using his weight and tying him up.

You cant tell me that Parkers fast hands, power and the work to the body would not cause Fury all sorts of troubles?!

:deal
