    Odd fight given Mcphilbin's recent outings at Crusierweight.

    A Fury taking on a cruiserweight rather than a proper heavyweight...where have we seen that before?

    Are there no heavyweights out there who would be willing to fight?

    Fair point, but he is obviously in the no one needs him club. Would have been great to see him against Thompson in September.

    I agree with this. Although matching Hughie and this stage is difficult- for example I wouldn't put him in with Rogan yet. The lad Claus Bertino who Harrison beat in Prizefighter would be acceptable at this stage.

    Not a bad fight imo Mcphilbin is a durable fighter, don't know how durable he will be against a heavyweight though, take it Hughie isn't fighting Darren Corbett anymore.
