    They’ve said they want him to build as he’s just always taken a big step up to soon. I expect a named journeyman like Wach again or Duahapas.

    however I also wouldn’t put it past fury to try and rush again and put himself up for the Hrgovic mandatory fight

    Wach btw is boxer not easily to get down. He is a bit larger than Wlad and went all distance vs Klit and almost all distance vs not out of shape Povetkin, this is not bad measure + he is really large.

    Now yeah, looks that more walks around the ring, concerned on defense. When he had been fed for a title fight he had looks that 27-0-0 pro record.

    Povetkin might have been a few weeks shy of his 40th birthday and way past his best against Hughie but his mechanism was more intact than it was against Hunter and especially Whyte and he walked Hughie into some huge perfectly timed right hands over the top. Those shots landed flush and were at the very least KD shots but Hughie barely even blinked.

    Hughie vs Hrgovic would be good...

    No one seems to care that he has lost his 3 big fights.
    Plus he is still young.

    Yeah, 26 years old and already been hurt many times. Not good for his confidence if he loses again...

    Meh. Boxers today are too fragile.
    Nothing wrong with loosing. Take it like a man and move on. Or even if you have a ton of excuses and whatnot, still move on.
    Look at Manny. Rosado. Hopkins.

    Plenty of big names who took many losses, yet continued on as if nothing had happened.

    I agree. Boxing has lots of room for guys who are probably never going to win a title, as long as you aren't taking too much punishment. Hughie could carve out a nice career like Chisora, only more boring
