  • hughie fury vs rodenko feb 21 2015

    Its part of the Undercard for GGG - Murray. I'm leaning towards Rodenko at 5-1. Hughie Fury appears to have no power and Rodenko kept coming into Brown, altho Brown was backing him up. If styles makes fights, Im leaning towards Rodenko at at the 5-1 price.

      Hughie appears to have no power?

      Where did you get that from?

        Could've been hand problems or early stages of illness, but he didn't show much power in the fights before his time off.

        He's still young though, nothing to worry about

          I disagree completely. The only time he didn't really show any power was against Danny Hughes where he was clearly sick.

          Looking at the first couple of fights he had, he was a deadly body puncher. Refreshing to see a heavyweight going to the body for once. Other than Chisora, I don't know more than one or two at the top level who goes for the body. Tyson Fury does it occasionally too, but other than that, not many.

          I tried to explain to people that when he fights guys like Matovu, it's agreed before hand that it goes the distance because Matovu won't be allowed to fight for a while if he's stopped. People who don't know anything about journeymen fighting don't believe me, but it's scheduled more as a workout than an actual fight. As sad as it sounds.

          However, he's not a 1 punch KO artist obviously, but neither was Ali or Holmes or Holyfield. And they did pretty well.
