    Fight was cancelled twice due to Hughie battling “long covid”.

    If third time is the charm this year, how would this fight play out? In the U.K

    For now Hunter, Fury's last fight was 1000 BC

    Hunter threw in the towel. He's done.

    The Bounty Hunter just caught his biggest fish in 320lbs Ignacio Esparza. Who can possibly stop him now?

    Hunter has knowingly ruined his career, but he is still talking too much, calling out the best fighters, hoping that they will refuse to fight him, but no one except his few fans notices him...

    Bounty Hunter vs 400 lbs Dustin Nichols is the fight to make. Great step up for Hunter.

    He already fought this year (appx 3 weeks ago) , albeit against someone that looks like a Latino Butterbean :confused::confused::confused:

    Original question:
    Pre 2021 I would've said Hunter without hesitation. At this point I dunno. Heart still says Hunter

    Now Hughie has his man strength and perfected that overhand right there is only one end result here.

    Hughie KO win in under 6 rounds. This would catapult him into title contention.

    Both of them are just bystanders in a hot division right now. They need to be more active and take on some other contenders including each other. All the heavyweights are getting fame and fortune whilst these 2 are spectating.

    Actually. Some of these fighters outside the main game probably need to take the risk of fighting each other. There's a handful of other heavyweights with stalled careers waiting for some golden opportunity to surface.

    Correct. Dovbyshchenko has lost 6 of his past 7 fights.

    If Hughie can't look like shades of Ali against this guy he's in real strife.

    I'm not sure what happened to Hunter, but he was much better than H. Fury in his prime. I had little interest in this fight in the first place, zero now.
