    Just finished watching the fight.

    Rudenko wasn't playing and Hughie is the real deal. The only thing missing is his man strength, which without any more illness will develop in time.
    Imagine him in 5 years time and with another 5-10kg of quality weight on him :shock:

    I think he has a lot of natural ability. Nice kid too. But he definitely needs some more quality weight and muscle on him to increase his power. The good news is Peter Fury said that we're going to be seeing him add lots of quality muscle in the next 12 months. That food allergy/illness that kept him out of action was actually preventing him from doing so apparently. It sounded pretty bad from what he was saying. He said he could barely spar four rounds without getting tired and he used to throw up in the dressing room after all of his fights. There's a video of it on Youtube I'll dig out later.

    Hughie is the best prospect due to the age and development factor.

    Hughie showed a good defence in there, he should of worked his jab and held the centre of the ring a bit more, but good performance and wasn't in much trouble.
